Classic Rock

 

 

Classic Rock is a radio format which developed from the album-oriented rock (AOR) format in the early 1980s. In the United States, the classic rock format features music ranging generally from the mid-1960s to the late 1980s, primarily focusing on commercially successful hard rock  popularized in the 1970s. The radio format became increasingly popular with the baby boomer demographic by the end of the 1990s.

Although classic rock has mostly appealed to adult listeners, music associated with this format received more exposure with younger generations of listeners with the presence of the internet and digital down loading. Some classic rock stations also play a limited number of current releases which are stylistically consistent with the station's sound, or by heritage acts that are still active and producing new music.

 

 

 

Journey has been one of the greatest classic rock bands of all time. The band has released 23 albums and 43 singles since 1975 and has reached worldwide album sales total of more than 75 million. 

 The San Francisco band got its start in 1973. Santana's former road manager, Herbie Herbert, recruited two of that band's members (Gregg Rolie and Neal Schon) and former Steve Miller Band bassist Ross Valory to form the Golden Gate Rhythm Section.

 

The band later became Journey.

The original Journey band members included Gregg Rolie on vocals and the keyboard; Neal Schon on guitar and vocals; George Tickner on guitar; Ross Valory on bass and vocals; and Prairie Prince on drums. 

Their first album was released in 1975 and established the band's jazz-influenced progressive rock sound. After several personnel changes, Steve Perry signed on as lead vocalist, launching the band's greatest period of commercial success, from the late 1970s through the mid-1980s. Many people remember Steve as the face of the band.

In 2005, the band (along with original members Schon and Valory) marked its 30th anniversary with the release of its 23rd album, Generations and an anniversary tour, at times featuring some of the many former members of the group. In December 2006, Jeff Scott Soto replaced Steve Augeri as lead vocalist. Soto had been filling in for several months after Augeri was sidelined with a chronic throat infection.

 

Soto was replaced a few months later by Arnel Pineda, vocalist for a Filipino cover band, who was hired as a result of a video he posted on YouTube.
