New Steve Perry album "Traces" coming October 2018*

I was hoping for more from a lead-off album track, but it is nice to hear his voice again with new material. Very much looking forward to exploring this album from one of my favorite vocalists.

 

Name of his new label.

 

Shocked to see him singing again. I thought he retired long ago.

 

I like it. I was not expecting much after all this time but that is pretty solid.

 

I like it also. It's wonderful hearing Steve singing again.

It has elements of the classic song style Steve has sung in the past, but then there is a contemporary sheen in the harmonies and guitar sound and other production elements that add to the track IMO.

Neal Schon might notice there's no guitar solo, probably to avoid sounding like an old school Journey power ballad .

 

I think that little bridge brings the WHOLE thing together. The ending is nice too. Good tune and such a pleasure to hear Steve freakin' Perry singing again.

Great to see Steve back in the saddle! Sounds very good. But I believe Steve is rather a perfectionist when it comes to his output. I expected nothing less than as good as he could possibly sound at this stage of his career. Surprised at this album happening. Not surprised he sounds pretty damn good!

 

One of the only musical "Icons" i now cannot tolerate or support due to his treatment of past band mates, etc......not his vocal talent.

 

Threadcrap, much.

 

I have to admit he sounds way better than I thought he would. But this release and news brings me great joy!

 

Sounds great, I like it!!

 

Pre-ordered the signed "fire splatter" deluxe vinyl.

Signed Deluxe 2xLP Select Bundle

 

You absolutely must take a photo of you in the Steve Perry socks and share it with us!

 

The tracklist has fewer total words than a Pearl Jam album!

 

I ordered that as well , so Happy he's finally back .................. I like the 1st tune

 

Will do!

 

Looking forward to this.......although just a teeny weeny bit concerned that it may go a bit "Rod Stewart" territory in places.

 

Thanks for the excellent sample. It is a pretty solid sounding track - less rocky than I would hope but I guess I expect that - it is the trend with Steve. I'm all in on this one. It will be great to have some more Steve Perry. Then perhaps an archive release? That track from Pacific Ocean Blue was very solid and peak-Journey like....

 

Damn had to order the signed cd bundle...my credit card is struggling under the weight of so many great releases coming up but this one will be ESSENTIAL

 

Loving the new song...his voice is still great

 

The production sounds great on this - I'd love to know who did it

 

Not to mention one-sided and inaccurate per not only Perry but Schon and Cain.
