 What can you say - probably "the" Journey Album to have January 9, 2007

Actually I'm sure there are people that would recommend one of the best of collections but to me this was always "the sound" of Journey with the high voice of Steve and Neil's crunchy guitar and Greg's keyboards, not to mention the rhythm section keeping the whole thing anchored.
There are some great songs (lights, Wheel in the Sky, Feeling That way/Any Time) and whenever I listen to this album I'm always transported by to a better time (or forward to my current relationships :D )
Anyway - you might be like a "best of" album better than this but Invinity is probably the best journey album from composition, songs, performance, etc. :D
 A classic in any era August 25, 2007

Journey has been my favorite band since I was 12 years old. This CD is a classic. Steve Perry's voice sounds crisp and pure. Neal Schon's guitar playing is revolutionary for it's time, and Gregg Rolie is/was one of the best keyboardists from that era. You can still hear songs such as: Lights, Wheel In The Sky, and Patiently on the radio today. The only reason I gave this CD 4 stars and not 5 is that it is a little heavy on the ballads. Not that any of the ballads are bad; I just would have preferred to have had a little better mix on this CD. That aside, in my humble opinion this CD really is a must own in anyone's CD collection
 Reissue, not rematered August 30, 2006

Buyer beware. These new Journey releases are reissues of their 1996 remastered releases. They are NOT remastered in 2006. Rhino should be ashamed of itself for this (it's been 10 years - I would have gladly paid for a remastered version, but not for new packaging).
What are you thinking-1-2 stars December 2, 2006

I can't believe what I am seeing with the 1-2 star reviews. This album is one of the best they ever did. Every song is excellent. A must buy for anyone who is getting interested in Journey's music.
This album will stop you in your tracks! February 8, 2008

I was 14 years old when this album was released. I went over to a friends house after school and through the door of his older brother's room was the sound of this voice. The voice was, Steve Perry's.
I was already building a pretty diverse record collection. I told my friend to hang on for a second and literally stopped in my tracks and knocked on his brother's door. He opened the door and said, "Hey, what's up?" I asked who it was that he was listening to. He said, "Journey." and showed me the cover. That friday night, I went to a local department store with my family and passed by the record section. There it was, "Infinity". With the best looking artwork on the rack. I pulled out my lone $10 dollar bill and bought the record. It was on sale for $5.98!. This purchase began a journey of my own. They were my favorite band from 1978 to 1983's "Frontiers". I bought their records. Went to their concerts on every tour and watched them develop and implode. I didn't know about terms like "corporate rock", or the pending homogenization of rock radio that was beginning to happen. I just knew that i liked their sound. Roy Thomas Baker produced the album's "Infinity" and "Evolution". His production style was a major force to why and how they became so hugely successful. Infinity is an album for the ages and for all ages. Personally, The best Steve Perry Era album, and one which I am listening to right now at the age of 44, as I write this.
It is one of the best rock album's made in the 70's. Waaaay beyond it's time. It had class and soul and groove. The band played great and I feel that if you like good melodic, well sung rock music this is an absolutely stellar recording. If you are into the "New wave" or "punk" generation from the same era. You won't dig this at all. It's not angst. It's beautifully played and arranged commercial rock music.
A masterpiece.
NOTE:I hadn't heard Journey before this record (or so I thought). Actually, my older brother had "Look Into The Future" and "Next" in his collection. The pre-Steve Perry Journey is a fantastic lineup and great, great music. It's this Journey without Steve Perry. But the great voices of Gregg Rolie (Santana's co-founder and singer of Black Magic Woman) and Neal Schon (a Guitar Prodigy and fine singer in his own right) . The Pre-Steve Journey holds it's own and deserves just as much attention from the record label and curious musician based fan.
Remasters with bonus tracks, etc.
Anyway, go and listen. Really listen.
