Journey - Don't Stop Believing Live Performance in Philadelphia 1986
In June 1986, Journey was riding high on the success of their album "Frontiers," which had been released just a year earlier. This album was crucial for the band, as it showcased their signature blend of rock and melodic hooks, featuring iconic tracks like "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)" and, of course, "Don't Stop Believin'." This live recording in Philadelphia captures the band in their prime, fronted by powerhouse vocalist Steve Perry, who was known for his soaring range and captivating stage presence. Interestingly, this concert comes during a peak of their popularity, and "Don't Stop Believin'" would later become an anthem, especially in the 2000s with its resurgence on television shows. The energy of the crowd, combined with the band's tight performance, perfectly encapsulates why Journey became one of the defining rock bands of the era.
