Journey

In the summer of 1982, Journey was riding high on the success of their album ‘Escape,’ which had launched them into mainstream superstardom with hits like ‘Don’t Stop Believin’.’ This live recording from the Day On The Green festival in Oakland showcases the band at a pivotal point in their career, vibrant and electrifying. It’s interesting to note that right before this recording, Journey had already begun to solidify their iconic blend of rock and melodic hooks, establishing a sound that would shape many bands that followed. By this time, they had built a massive fanbase, and the excitement of the crowd that day is almost palpable. It wasn't just another concert; it was a celebration of their incredible journey—pun intended—and a moment where the energy of live rock truly resonated with everyone present.
