Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Like other successful bands of the 1970s and 1980s, Journey's sound was built on the double threat of singer Steve Perry's upper-register vocals and guitarist Neal Schon's melodic solos. The band also used rich harmonies to embellish their hard edge. Greatest Hits shows that Journey knew how to craft a pop song with memorable tunes like "Anyway You Want It" and "Don't Stop Believin'." "Wheel in the Sky" was one of the band's more arty singles, while "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'" relied on a straight four-bar blues pattern, with Perry's vocals at their best. The band's power ballads gave them their biggest success, and are rightfully represented here: "Faithfully," "Open Arms," and "Send Her My Love." Another unlikely aspect further secured the band's success--you could actually dance to some of their stuff, especially "Anyway You Want It." --Steve Gdula

- Timeless
I too, was not a big Journey fan during the times they dominated the charts. However, as one other put it, they were enscribed into my memory during these times and have now become a cherished part of my memories. It seemed that no matter where you were, there was a Journey song playing on the radio at some point.

If you are a Journey fan, you will love this cd. I wont nit pick it to death like some reviewers do..this is just about music, and music is there to soothe the soul..Im not going to sit here and pretend to work for Rolling Stone or anything..I'll leave that to the dorky wanna bes..
Journey's music is great, the cds..all of them are awesome..if it doesnt have the song you want, find the cd that does and buy it..end of story.

- It's the Journey, Not the destination.
Once Steve Perry joined Journey for the "Infinity" album, the band's course was inevitably reset. They changed direction from being a progressive rock band to an arena rock juggernaut. Perry's main contribution was a strong melodic sense coupled to his more soulful vocals. The hits started almost immediately, as "Lights" and "Wheel In The Sky" became FM Rock Radio staples.

That is what this greatest hits focuses on, the songs that became the standards by which the public remembers the ... Read More

- an interesting journey...
I picked this album up to listen to some old favorites from time to time. I grew up with this music on the radio, and "Don't Stop Believin'", "Faithfully", "Any Way You Want It", "Separate Ways", and "Open Arms" are thereby a part of my blood...whether or not I want that. I'm a sentimentalist, I guess.
