Time 3

by **fred_journeyman** » Mon Jul 17, 2006 4:33 pm

Been spending a good portion of this evening listening to those three CDs, while I edit some video.

God, I'd forgotten how good that stuff sounded, especially the live cuts! :shock:

I totally agree with you!!!! I listen to those quite often

I love Cookie Duster and Natural Thing.. Imagine a band that can leave tracks like that on the shelf for years... JOURNEY !

This is the collection that really got me into Journey in the first place. I worked at a record store while in college when this collection came out....I thought at that time I'd never see Journey again! They had been off the radar so long when this came out, and I was under the impression that Perry had throat cancer and all that bullshit. I went to school in NC and my family lived in FL, so for 12 hours at a time, I would drive back and forth from NC-FL over long weekends/Christmas/Spring breaks etc and sing the entire collection start to finish for 12 hours at a time.

I did the exact same thing!!! I would drive back home from college every few weeks and would listen to all three cd's from start to finish, singing every song. By the time I got home my family would always ask me why my voice sounded the way it did. Damn those Perry songs are rough!

Oh you gotta listen to every disc in it's entirety every time. Doesn't gell the same way if not.

TIME 3 is the reason box sets were invented, plain and simple.

by **conversationpc** » Tue Jul 18, 2006 12:40 am

Columbia did very well with the "Time3" box set. They included rarities, unreleased live stuff, and b-sides that weren't previously available on the albums, not to mention the hits. When I first listened to this years ago after it came out, I hadn't heard the pre-Perry stuff before and really loved it.

by **WalrusOct9** » Tue Jul 18, 2006 12:52 am

I always wanted to buy this for the unreleased stuff, but why do I have to pay for 3 discs just to get less than one disc of "rare" material. Just let me buy one disc with all the stuff I don't have...I don't need another CD with "Lights" on it, really.

by **Red13JoePa** » Tue Jul 18, 2006 1:00 am

The liner notes are great (if a little overly politically correct) the pics are super and the packaging's first class.
The track-by-track commentaries are the best part.

Well, there are 13 tunes of either previously unreleased or now hard to obtain material...

Cookie Duster
For You
Good Times
Little Girl
Natural Thing
La Raza Del Sol
Only Solutions
Liberty
All That Really Matters
With a Tear (Instrumental)
Into Your Arms (Instrumental)
Girl Can't Help It (Live)
I'll Be Alright Without You (Live)

by **WalrusOct9** » Tue Jul 18, 2006 1:49 am

Right, and those 13 tunes would easily fit on one disc.

I never understood box sets like that. Anyone who pays that much money for a box set is going to be a hardcore fan, and likely they already have the albums already, so why repeat those songs? Conversely, it could be a normal fan just looking to get an overview of a band's career, but they're probably going to skip the demos and outtakes. It just feels like a total cash-in to me, making people spend $40+ largely to buy music they already own. I like the idea of box sets, I just want them to have material I don't already own, like the Springsteen or Bon Jovi sets that have come out in the last few years. That's the way to do it.

I wasn't yet a big fan at the time I bought it. I had "Greatest Hits", "Escape", "Frontiers", and maybe one or two others. I'm sure it turned thousands of other fans onto their earlier stuff as well.

I think box sets are supposed to be career retrospective including unreleased material. Unless specifically stated like the live Bruce one or the unreleased rareities Bruce one. Caveat emtor I guess.....

Like Hunsicker it was the first Jrny thing I owned. I was gone after that.

Right, but it doesn't make any sense. The people who want a career retrospective and those who want the unreleased material are generally two very opposite sections of a band's fan base. I doubt the people who only own the Greatest Hits album would really be interested in "La Raza Del Sol."

At least they're redeeming themselves a bit with the Houston DVD and the possibly release of a Frontiers-era show as well...now that's the kind of stuff that makes fans happy.

by **Red13JoePa** » Tue Jul 18, 2006 2:17 am

Dunno, unless I'm wrong I think Time's done pretty good biz as far as units shifted for a box set which generally sell less due to price.

LIBERTY is fantastic....also liked velvet curtain.. who knew that was the prelude to feeling that way!!

Now if only Perry had laid down the vocals for the two "new" tracks...then it would have been perfect! They could have released a NEW Journey single to promote it.

Speaking of record stores, I ventured to Old Town Sacramento with my wife and kids the other day and found a record store that specialized in OOP and other rare discs (LPs, 45s, etc.). I could NOT believe the quality of Journey as well as many, many other artists' records that the guy had, all neatly arranged. The store went on forever. Unfortunately, I didn't have the time to do some serious "shopping," but I plan on going back. Now that I have a turntable again, I'm thinking of replenishing my Journey and Steve Perry LPs. There is just something about putting on an actual record, as opposed to a CD that works, not to mention looking at the original album art. Oh, the nostalgia!

That would have been "sweet," as my son likes to say!

F that. I LOVE those tunes the way they are. Especially With A Tear.... RE singles, they did release Lights (of course extracted from Captured) and it actually charted fairly high.... You're right though that W/ Perry vocals they coulda released either WAT or IYA... I just like those things as the instrumentals they are.

Guys, I don't want to change the subject here, but in case you missed it:

Being Jeff's good friend and webmaster for his media section I've been following this whole Journey-thing with him from day 1. More than anyone else I'm very much aware of Jeff's capabilities and I don't think the Atlanta bootleg is doing him any justice!
I think you all should know that Jeff's been singing EVERY week for the past 5-6 months with 'Boogie Knights' on the weekends, then blowing out his voice with sessions, the forthcoming Talisman album & his new solo stuff... and then Journey flew him over to stand in for Augeri who got ill!
Although concert reviews are great, the 2 weeks of recharge he gets at the end of this month will make him go on even stronger!... wait and see!
