Finally, and justly, Neal is the one being "paid like a motherfucker." He's gotta be happier than a Wigglerette in a house with no scales.

LOL, Exactly – 27 years later!!! 'Course, that's the ‘Top Pop Catalog’
(On which The Greatest Hits is now no. 1 – woo hoo! lol)
It was on the “Billboard 200” that Escape hit no. 1
&, Ok, I had way too much time on my hands today, lol
But, wow, they really were hot back then.
Escape stayed in top 10 (Billboard 200) from Aug 81 to May 82 - Here are the weekly chart postitions -
debuted at 4, then 3,3,1,3,3,3,4,2,2,2, 2,3,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,5,5,5,5, no chart,10,9,9,8 – can’t find anymore charts…
Frontiers from Feb83 to Aug 83 debuted at 6, then 4,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,3,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,7, last chart…

I absolutely love the fact that Journey has 2 albums in the top 15. Granted these are classic charts, but 2 is fantastic.

My son wears his to school. I was kind of worried that he would get beat up, but no problem so far.

Neal, Jon and management have resurrected all incarnations of Journey over the last 30 years and reintroduced them to fans. The results have been amazingly successful.

And deservedly so.
If the success of Revelation leads others young and old to dip back into this monster catalogue that's all the better.
