I saw Journey with JSS in Amsterdam and I think he did a great job then. He especially was a much better front man than Steve Augeri IMO. During that tour they also put some extra effort in the shows, which may or may not have been Jeff's idea. First Neal started every show by playing the national anthem of the country they played in, which I thought was really great. When they played the encore

This is just beyond terrible. I would not pay 1 cent to see the likes of Jon Bon Jovi, David Coverdale, Paul Stanley, Don Dokken and Bobby Kimball live anymore. If I were them I would feel ashamed to charge people so much money for such poor performances. They all should have quit a long time ago, but there is too much money in it. For the life of me I can't understand why people continue to pay

Great album, my no. 4 album op 2018. I saw them live 3 times and live they were also very good every time. Very much looking forward to their second album.

I totally agree, I love "Aria". It's my favourite Asia album.
Forum: Noticeboard

Nice to see that you also love those 2 Survivor albums and Magnum's "Vigilante". Now I have to check out that Jim Steinman album.
Forum: Noticeboard

I like all 3 albums. My 3 favourite Asia songs from the John Wetton era are "Only Time Will Tell" (Asia), "Open You Eyes" (Alpha) and "Go" (Astra).

Will have to check them out, because they will be the support band of Beast in Black in november.

I wouldn't say they changed my life, but these are my 5 favourite records that I always go back to: Survivor - Vital Signs Survivor - When Seconds Count Europe - The Final Countdown Heart - Heart Magnum - Vigilante

IMO this is just a very average song, nothing special. I can't understand while people are raving about a mediocre song as this one.

I hate all 6 post reunion albums with a vengeance. IMO there are only 3 good songs on these 6 albums, namely Last Look At Eden, New Love In Town and Days Of Rock 'n Roll. They now sound like a second rate Thin Lizzy or Deep Purple and they sound nothing like the great band they once were. They were one of my favourite bands, but now I couldn't care less if they would quit tomorrow.

I used to be a big Simple Minds and U2 fan, before I discovered AOR and melodic rock. "New Gold Dream" has always been my favourite Simple Minds album, with "Glittering Prize" being my favourite song.

I love "Hold Back The Night" too, it's my favourite Giant song. For me, LOTR and TTB are both great albums and much better than the rest. After they played 3 songs at a charity function last year, I was really hoping that I would get to see Dann Huff and the rest of the band play live again. Unfortunately that didn't happen. I still have great memories of the 2 times I saw them here in

I read in Steve Lukather's book that the band wanted "Endless" as the first single, but their label chose "Stranger In Town". "Endless" would have been my first choice too, followed by "Angel Don't Cry".

I'm still going to gigs and festivals a lot, but I wonder how much longer I will be able to do that because of the increasing problems with my back. Just saw Beast In Black and Ammunition and this week I will go to Dynazty and Kissin' Dynamite. I also plan to go to 3 festivals this year, Frontiers Rock festival, Swedish AOR Convention and HEAT festival.

One of the few good songs on his very disappointing "Traces" album. I only listened to "Traces" 2 times and can't bring myself to do it for the 3rd time. I was so happy when I heard that Steve Perry had made a new album, but I think I have never been more disappointed with an album.
Forum: Noticeboard

I think this is a very good song. For me "Eden" is the best song on the new CD, but "The Hero" and "Endless Summer" are not far behind.
Forum: Noticeboard

I happen to like this album. I agree it's nothing new, but what really is nowadays? Robbie is a great singer, most songs are good and everything is well played. "Show Me What You'd Die for" is a great song and there are several others. I don't understand why some people feel the need to completely slag this album off.
Forum: Noticeboard

I think "The Unforgiving" is easily their best album and since then they are going downhill. For me both "Resist" and "Hydra" are disappointing when compared to "The Unforgiving".

"Freight Train Heart" is his best album, a real classic IMO. Co-written with Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain, who also played on the album.

Yes, I actually like this band and I also like this song. For me it's better than the first single and I'm looking forward to hearing the new CD.

Sad news. I loved Talk Talk back in the day, especially their hit song "It's My Life". Talk Talk were a great live band, just watch this live clip of "It's My Life": https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=7&v=Rbwz532EQw8

For me the best ever UK AOR album is: Magnum - Vigilante. I also love Dare's "Out Of The Silence", Shy's "Excess All Areas" and Atlantic's "Power".
