Not long now to the September release date for the Journey album and while it may/may not be a resounding return to form it's performance in the US will no doubt be completely different to that in the UK.
Let's face it, hear in the UK Journey mean diddley squat! Apart from a hardcore of fans, to your average UK music buyer Journey are responsible for one soft rock hit, namely 'Don't stop believin'', which surfaces on the 'golden hour' every so often and that's about it. That's the harsh reality of the situation. It's for this reason that it might be worth UK contributors to this board actually letting Sony UK know what THEY think of the band and how much the're looking forward to it's release.
At this point the release of a Journey album in the UK will hardly be seen as a priority for Sony. This despite the current success of Santanacan see what's goin' on.
