I know a lot of the oxygen will be spent on Freedom this weekend, but just had to say I don't know how I missed this.

https://www.amazon.com/Alive-America-Jo ... 151&sr=8-1

Came up on Amazon when I went online to order Freedom. This is a great, rare find. It's a board feed from the '79 tour. Great quality - arguably superior to the Captured album. Mostly the same set, but there are some outliers like Next, City of the Angels, and Lady Luck (Rolie sounds amazing on this track). And I love the way Smitty's drums sound mixed hot with Ross' inspired bass-lines. This is this lineup's finest hour.

I missed this too, definitely something that I need to order.

It used to be on Spotify as Legends Live Vol 39. Killer show!

I have a question for any of you about these live albums....

Alive In America

Escape From Evolution

Live At The Cow Palace

Look Into The Boston

Some or even all of those are listed on Amazon. But I have a friend who is usually able to download albums through other means and sources, but he can't find any of them available for "free" download by searching for those titles.

Do any of you know if any of those albums are listed on the internet by different names than the ones that I listed?

Do any of you know the exact dates that any of those shows were on?

I have found it online at Walmart and Barnes & Noble too. I found a link for the label that’s issuing it.

Thank you for the response, I appreciate it!

My friend is trying to find them for me through "free" download, but he can't find them under those titles through the websites that he's searching on for "free" downloads.

He thought that maybe they are listed on websites that give "free" downloads with the albums being listed under different titles than the ones that I named on here?

Also, if anyone knows the exact dates that those shows were recorded on, please let me know!

I wasn’t sure myself if this was legit being it’s on Amazon so I starting surfing though the places where I normally buy my music before I ordered it.

It is likely that all the listed live shows are just bootlegs listed by date and location elsewhere. I’m not near my boots but I’m sure someone will be able to help out.

I think "Alive in America" is the second of two nights of amazing soundboard shows floating around from Denver '79...... 5/9/79 to be exact with the venue guy intro, "Majestic", and "Kohoutek" edited out based on a setlist comparison.

"Live at the Cow Palace" might be their 12/31/76 show that featured three songs off of "Next" since it was released like the first week of '77 IIRC. Its been released a time or two on CD.

There's a Boston '76 bootleg out there, but the quality isn't up to anywhere near CD release worthy. A quick search about the "Escape from Evolution" on Amazon says "Disc 1, tracks 1-7: Live at The Palladium (New York, NY), May 28, 1978. Disc 1, tracks 8-11: Live at The Golden Gate Park (San Francisco, CA), November 3, 1991. Disc 2: Live in Chicago, 1979 radio broadcast"

Thanks Eric! I knew someone could get to the info.

Thank you, that helps a lot!

Happy to help, but after digging in my collection I realized I must have mistaken the Boston '76 show for another bootleg since that show actually sounds pretty awesome!! It has a rare live performance of "I'm Gonna Leave You".....the date is 3/19/76 if its the same show I'm thinking it is.

Thanks again!

I'll let my friend know all of the info that you posted about dates of the shows, and maybe he'll be able to find them for me for free?

Correct, the liner notes say Denver '79.

I finally got my copy and I really like it it, Lady Luck is a smoking track too when they play it live. I wish Neal would add that to the set list for their next run of dates.

Lady Luck is my favorite song on the Evolution album.

I always loved when Neal and Gregg would trade off licks like they did on that song. Perry sounds awesome on it too.

Hell yeah! I forgot about this tune. Arnel could pull it off I suppose but I would be wanting it to see Neal's scorching guitar live on this one on the next run of dates too. "Edge Of The Blade" is the one track I've never seen played live in person at the Journey concerts and would love to hear that but now add "Lady Luck" to my wishlist. Maybe next year when they do Neal's planned 50th anniversary tour. If that happens with the 3 hour set i was reading about. Throw all those deep cut gems out there. The band has 3 quality singers right now to possibly sustain a tour like that with Arnel,Deen, and Jason. Now dont laugh but add Perry and Rolie not for the whole tour but select dates. we shall see. I know im dreaming with the last two. But you never know lol !

I had already been thinking that they should try to get Rolie to do the 50th Anniversary tour with them.

I think that Cain blocked that from happening in the past? But maybe Schon has more control over the band now that Azzoff is gone. Thankfully!

By the way. I'm assuming that this was a joke or just BS in general. But a friend of mine told me a few days ago that a DJ on one of the Cleveland radio stations was saying a few days ago that Steve Perry said that he'd be willing to perform with Journey in the future.

My friend is NOT making that up. He really did hear that said. But I fully assume that it's either a joke by the DJ or a BS rumor again.

You never know with Perry. Hope that rumor is true but if it is no way he tours. If he did join my guess is prolly show up on special date planned in California or maybe Vegas? With Neal saying they are talking again this could be possible we hope for something next year.

I would say that best case scenario, Perry sits in on one song at one concert in California on Journey's 50th Anniversary tour. Although, I highly doubt that that even happens.
