- it's growing on me, for sure...I find myself singing along much more
- the song lengths are no longer a distraction (mainly because the music and singing is so good), but I still would have chopped them down if I were producer...just personal preference
- I still don't really care for "Tantra"...but it's very well executed
- Arnel, as I stated before, sounds way more comfortable and loose on this album...he sings very, very well
- Neal's playing is stellar, if a bit long-winded
- I get why Neal compares it to
Frontiers- I have increased it's grade from a C to a low B
It'll never be my favorite Journey record, but I can actually say I kinda like it now
I didn't totally conform...I still would make the songs shorter and leave off "Tantra"....
