Add all that to another BIG factor that neither Arrival nor Generations had...publicity. Arrival had very little promotion, and Generations had none whatsoever. At least with Revelation, if you went into Wal-Mart, you knew there was a new Journey cd.
It will be interesting to see how the Foreigner cd sells. Basically the same package, but without the timing of The Sopranos.
