Welcome to the first episode of Season 2 of Wheel In The Sky.

This episode is all about the 2001 album, Arrival. This is the first album since Steve Perry and Steve Smith left the band. The new vocalist, Steve Augeri does a fantastic job and here is the Wheel In The Sky Review of the album that has more than one version.

I'll review the album and then review each song individually. You'll see all of the different album artwork as well as the artwork for the three singles from the album.

Released in 2000 in Japan. Released in 2001 in the USA. This was the last Studio Journey album released from Columbia Records.

Watch and enjoy the fracturing of the stone we all call "Journey".

This album is much better than it has been given credit for.

Journey on CBS 2 On The Town in 1982

Journey's appearance on the local CBS station's "2 On The Town" included Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain

Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain did an interview segment on a Television News Magazine Program in 1982. Melody Rogers hosted the show and showed off Neal's new car. This was an excellent piece that gives out some unknown information about the plans of the band at the time. Escape was a catastrophic album that was destined for outer space. Neal Shows off his car and talks about his Guitar collection, Jonathan Cain talks about what it's like to be the newest member of the band and what it was like for him moving to San Francisco. This is a lost gem from the local Los Angeles CBS station, KNXT called "2 On The Town" and was hosted by Melody Rogers.

Journey's War On MTV Music Videos

 Journey's War On MTV Music Videos

Journey didn't make any Music Videos for the Raised On Radio album and everybody was on their back. MTV created a "War on video" thing with Journey to try and force them to make some videos for the album.

Here's 2 great interview segments presented by MTV VJ, Mark Goodman. Steve Perry, Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain talk about the situation in the video below;

 Journey on "Live At Five" in 1986

I found another great interview from 1986! This one is from Sue Simmons in New York. This is a great interview, where again the band has to defend themselves against the backlash from not making any Music Videos for the album "Raised On Radio". The interview last about 5 minutes. Enjoy!!!

 Journey on Good Morning America in 1986

Here's a strange interview with Journey in 1986. Steve Perry, Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain were guests on Good Morning America. They talk about their latest album release, "Raised On Radio". They also talk about breaking up and getting back together.

This video is from 1986 and the quality isn't good but it's all we have. It's worth a view.

Merry Christmas 2021

 Merry, Merry Christmas 2021

Wheel In The Sky has made it through a rough couple of years and is proud to still age able to wish you all a Merry Christmas.

Here is a Sticker that was released in 1980. It's theme is Departure;

Steve Perry with Neal and Jonathan singing a great version of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town";

Jelly Roll Sweetie

 Journey's "Homemade Love" is talked about in this mini-Interview / Music Video. Steve Perry and Gregg Rolie of Journey were guests on Jim Ladd's "Innerview" series in 1980. Steve and Gregg explain the meaning of the lyrics,  "Jelly Roll Sweetie" from the song "Homemade Love".

I decided that a Journey Channel is just going to have to have some Journey music, it doesn't make sense otherwise. This video also includes a Music Video of "Homemade Love" which is an excerpt of Journey live at Nakano Sun-plaza In Tokyo, Japan on 10-13-1980.
