Journey

Jam band. Arena rockers. Pop-culture icons. Rock and Roll Hall of Famers.

Journey’s story, like the band’s varied and exciting discography, has many chapters. Long before “Don’t Stop Believin’” became a zeitgeist-shifting phenomenon, Journey was just a dream that rose from the ashes of Santana. Then they became a juggernaut, selling more than 100 million albums worldwide on the strength of favorites like “Any Way You Want It,” “Open Arms,” and “Separate Ways.”

But success did not happen overnight, and was not easily maintained. Soaring vocalist Steve Perry eventually completed Journey’s hitmaking sound alongside stalwart guitarist Neal Schon, Gregg Rolie, and then Jonathan Cain. But Perry's tenure would not last, and this fracture threatened to re-define the band forever.

Journey: Worlds Apart author Nick DeRiso traces this incredible odyssey through each era, each album, and each tour. This is much more than just the history of Journey; it’s an all-access backstage pass.

"From 'Don’t Stop Believin’' to 'Separate Ways,' Journey unconsciously wrote the band’s own autobiography in their songs. Nick DeRiso’s Worlds Apart follows that long, strange Journey from the stage of Woodstock to Trump’s Oval Office in almost granular detail, detailing a long-running battle of the band. A must-read for all Journey fans." — Joel Selvin, former music critic, San Francisco Chronicle
