I would be all for him using Lincoln Brewster, Moyes Lucas and Paul Taylor again. Sadly, Mike Porcaro recently passed away. In the past, Randy Jackson has said that he was working with Perry on new music. So, he would be a great choice for the Bass player.
Brewster does a fantastic Schon impersonation on guitar. Moyes Lucas has some similarities to Steve Smith on drums.

Totally disagree. Not knocking his playing, but something about Perry/Brewster just doesn't work. Too much...something in the tone I don't like. Strange medicine could have been better with a different guitarist or tone. I didn't care for the strange medicine band or the street talk band, although both albums have good songs and great vocals. If Perry picks musicians for writing and demoing I hope someone has greater control than Perry over who records with him.

But on songs like "You Better Wait" "Stand Up (Before It's Too Late)" "Listen To Your Heart" "Somewhere There's Hope" and maybe to a lesser extent the title track, Brewster and Lucas do well with pulling off the Schon and Smith feel on a smaller scale.
I do agree though, that It's highly unlikely that Perry will choose to release a Rocking album. He might throw in one or two kind of Rocking songs? But that's about all I would expect, if even that.
I'm still in the group of people that's skeptical about whether or not he truly will release a new album. I hope that he does! But I'm afraid that I will be disappointed in the direction that he goes musically with the album.
If he (Perry) were to not release a Rocking album, then I'd most like to see him go in a Bluesy direction.

Anyway, to the extent that maybe, just maybe there might be new music, I have no interest in an album with more than a hand full of "rockers". Perry's nearly 70, and quite frankly, neither he nor Journey for that matter, have ever made a dime on rockers. I've got two words for SMFP: Panty dropper. Let's face it, the (female) fans have been waiting for Perry to apply whatever is left of that rasp to a toe-curling, R&B-laced panty-dropper. So have at it.

Time away from the industry has really done him some good. He looks years younger, has a really nice tan - a fine lady. I think everyone should take 20 years off if that's the outcome.
The medical degree isn't too shabby, either!
Man has he kept himself busy eh ...
