Not the best version I've heard, but by far the sexiest.

Can't go wrong with Heart Zeppelin covers. At my most recent concert, they did a great version of "The Ocean."

That IS a great version.

And what the heck does "The Hat" mean?
Another great cover, Triumph ~ Just One Night
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVtsKuj22vQ (EM cover, Gil does a great job)
And one of my most favorite covers, Talisman ~ Crazy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieMVdbFHNYQ (Looove the edge they give it, and definitely one of my all-time favorite covers at any JSS show, such fun...

that's incredible!!
That was probably 15 or more years ago. Saint John knows closer than I do. After he did that he took a sabbatical from doing secular music, or I bet the Journey guys would have snagged him.

He's a very religious man and stayed away from the whole bar and club thing for many, many years (which is why I'm betting they disbanded again). But I flat out asked him ... "If Journey ever contacted you about being their lead singer, what would you say?" He looked up, took a deep breath and responded, "That's just a chance you
can't say no to."

So any releases?!? I'd like to hear his voice doing something
else ...secular or not.
