At the time, Steve Hunter was unaware that Douglas had also brought in his session mate Dick Wagner to solo over the song's 'simulated' live section that occurs later on. 'I got paid about 750 for doing it,' he said. I was fascinated by the idea that I owned this thing that played music but was also a little bit like a piece of art, a little bit like a book of short poems.Īnd, contrary to the parade of singles I heard so transiently over the radio, this was a collection of songs unified around a theme, presented as a cohesive unit. That turned out to be the opening solo on 'Train Kept A Rollin'.'' Steve believes he used his 1959 Les Paul Special for the track. I would hold the big sleeve in my hand (yes, this was in the days of vinyl) and pore over the lyric sheet while listening to the album.
Question-asker from A Train Going Anywherewhat does the lyric Oh. I don’t know if Journey’s Escape was the first album I owned, but that’s how I remember it. Streetlights people Writer/s: Jonathan Cain, Stephen Ray Perry, Neal Joseph Schon. The reason Journey is rather special to me, and ranked so high on this list, is it’s the band that introduced me to the concept of albums. I’m going with ‘Don’t Stop Believin” because it’s the iconic Journey song, and also because its brand of muscular rock optimism really encapsulates the music of the 80s. Jonathan: Yes in a way and no in that Steve Perry and Neal were fans of mine. This spot could have been filled with any number of songs by Steve Perry and the boys - ‘Who’s Crying Now,’ ‘Stone in Love,’ ‘Open Arms,’ ‘Separate Ways,’ ‘Send Her My Love,’ just pick one. Jonathan has written countless songs and none more important than the most. You didn’t think I’d make it through this whole list without a Journey song, did you?
