Pro Reviews: Untold Passion
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Before Journey became one of the top pop rock acts of the early 80s with a string of arena rock anthems and power ballads, the group had a more detectable prog and fusion edge while guitarist Neal Schon's earliest work was with the very unJourneylike Carlos Santana. So at the height of Journey's popularity, it appeared as though Schon wanted to get back to his fusion roots, by uniting with keyboard wizard Jan Hammer. However, the resulting album, 1981's Untold Passion,' wasn't going to be confused with Mahavishnu Orchestra anytime soon tracks such as "I'm Talking to You" wasn't much different from Journey's melodic rock style, while "Hooked on Love" saw Schon (who also doubled as vocalist) replicate Paul Rodgers' singing style. That said, the funky keyboard/guitar duel, "The Ride," gave both Schon and Hammer a chance to show off their chops. Untold Passion' seems to lean more towards the more melodic rock side of things, rather than fingerspraininducingchops. - Greg Prato, All Music Guide |
