    Essential Journey

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 29, 2005

    Pros: Includes all major hits

    Cons: None

    Always loved the Journey w/ Steve Perry. I never collected all their albums because I was a young teen at the time, sometimes I didn't have the money. Essential Journey was an answer to my yearning for Journey's hits on one CD/set without having to buy every album I missed during the 'magical years' with Steve Perry....what a voice! what a gift!! Thanks for the magic Steve!!!

    time3 is more "essential"

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 29, 2003 | 1 out of 1 found this Essential Journey review helpful

    love journey, love the new albums, but in reference to this album, time3 is more essential than this 2-disc set. someone else wrote that this album is missing the Rolie and Augeri years, and that's what I like about time3 is the early stuff. i think the third disc of the boxed set is the best--it has so many songs that are essential to journey ("happy to give," "once you love somebody," and "the eyes of a woman" come to mind). i also disagree with a previous reviewer...trial by fire was an excellent album, probably steve perry's most dominant and versatile vocal performance. still, the "escape" album is the greatest of all time.

    Why? Why? Why? Why? Cash!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 8, 2002

    I love Journey. They are one of my favorite bands of all time. I never got to see them live with Steve Perry but I have seen them twice with Steve Augeri and they were great! Arrival was a good album. Not as good as the 80's Steve Perry stuff but still better than a lot of the other dreck out there. And it was certainly better than Trial By Fire. My complaint is this: Why this 2-cd greatest hits compilation? What is the purpose, besides the obvious one of making some extra cash? Let's see...Journey compilations: Captured, Greatest Hits, Time 3, Greatest Hits: Live...and now this. Why? Most die-hard Journey fasn already have all of these songs anyway. If they were going to go ahead with this the least they could have done was put some new or un-released tracks on it. I'm sure there is some stuff lying around that they have not put out. Look at Time 3, new stuff. I hate to say it about a great band, but this album is a rip-off.

    One last Attempt to cash in !!!!!!!!!!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 10, 2001

    reviewing this is hard for me because I love Journey and always will, no matter who is singing for the band. The main gripe that I have with this release is that all of these songs r already available in the box set. I heard that Mr Perry chose which songs where to put on this release and I feel due to that the Rolie and Augeri years are absent. I hope that this collection isn't the bands way of reintroducing Perry back as a member because after all of mud slinging by Perry and the band about one another, would prove just one thing money talks and bullshit walks.

    Still missing "City Of Angels", and how can you have "Anytime" without "Feeling That Way"? Still a pretty good 2 disc set though.

    If you like Journey you should get this

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 7, 2001

    From what I see on the song list this is going to be a great album. This would be a better purchase for someone wanting to check out Journey than the greatest hits, since this one goes farther than featuring the hits it contains some of their best album tracks as well.
