Journey - Anytime, Wheel in the Sky, And More, Midnight Special 1978 | REACTION 

I'm 64 years old and didn't realize at the time how great the music was back then!! Teenager in the 70's and young adult in the 80's!! Great decades of music!!

70's & 80's ... "WE ROCKED, WITH THE VERY BEST!!!"😌😁

The guy that interdicted Journey was legend radio person Wolfman Jack . Love this blast from the past the Midnight Special showcased a lot of popular groups back in the day

Loved growing up in the 70,,s-80,s those were the best time in rock and roll this kind of music will never die, dont miss the 8-track tapes......

First time I heard Journey was on the Midnight Special. While hearing the song my head spun around like the exorcist when Steve sung. Been a fan ever since!

Feelin' That Way and Anytime were almost always played back to back like that on the radio. You don't hear stations do that so much anymore. I have always loved how Gregg Rolie and Steve Perry harmonized so well together.

This is my favorite era for Journey. The Infinity and Departure albums are my favorite. ❤️

Steve's voice on "Patiently" gives me goosebumps from head to toe!

Thank you for appreciating the music from my generation ADogg! Journey in this era had a more classic and soulful sound, which was Steve's foundation in music. Just the best!!

Patiently was the slow ballad here and the first song ever written by Schon and Perry in a Colorado Hotel room when Steve got the call to audition for and be part of the band. I guess History was made with that first collaboration.

You did it! Just makes me remember how good they were! Journey really performed well together. I miss those days. Thank you Adogg, watched it all with you.

The midnight special was 🔥 fire. Loved it and journey Yasss 🙌🏻

Gregg Rolie , the pianist was their lead singer. Steve Perry joined to sing as a second lead. Shortly after Gregg left and Steve was the lead we know and love for Journey. Gregg suggested bringing in Jonathan Cain from The Babies band to take over the pianos.

Steve Perry is incomparable and his voice communicates every emotion so well. And who can deny the great talent of Gregg Rolie, organist/keyboards and leads on Anytime and Feeling that Way in this video, . If anyone has heard Santana's Oye, Como Va, Evil Ways and Black Magic Woman (among the many standouts) you are hearing the hypnotic Rolie singing leads and sizzling the Hammond B3 organ. Was a founding member of Santana and Journey and was at Woodstock. Still smoking hot and making great music today. The Journey catalog holds up so well, remarkable musicians, music for the ages. Thanks for reaction video.

I was 16 when I fell in love with Steve Perry , always loved the Midnight Special .

Yes, the music of the 60s, 70s, and 80s was soooooo good. Glad you're finding it all now! BTW, you're just adorable and I enjoy your reactions very much. Keep 'em coming! 🙂

Goat. Glad I sent you Send her my love. Looks like you are hooked. Wish there was a time machine so you could see them live in person. Watched the whole video

I grew to this music in the 70's and 80's.There is another group with amazing vocals,the band (Boston)you will love.

Journey's music and Steve Perry's voice is timeless! Ronnie James Dio said that their guitar player Neil Schon was the best he ever heard.

Anytime you react to Journey, you have my full attention!! They are the best ever 🥰

I was 17 when this came out, I still remember watching the Midnight Special and American Bandstand. Music was so much better then

I love how you enjoy the music - makes you laugh out loud for joy. Thanks for making it new again for this old granny.

The bass on this is seriously funky! This is something I think we might have lost to time; technically great music with devastating hooks and groove that actually FEELS GOOD and is still laid back. Great driving and chilling music.

'Patiently' was the very first song that Steve and Neal (the guitarist) wrote together!

I love how Steve Perry always sang with so much passion. He's one of my favorite artists too.

As a child of the 60's, I fell in love with the Beatles then discovered Motown ( The Temptations, Marvin Gaye etc). As the 70's rolled around, so did "Your Song" by Elton John and I fell in love with his music. The Eagles captured my heart with their beautiful songs and melodic harmonies, but it was the arena rock shows, the power ballads, and the truly unique vocals of Steve Perry and the powerful instrumentals of the band Journey that speaks to my heart...and still do to this day. In 1986 when "I'll Be Alright Without You" hit the radio, I was going thru a separation then a divorce and this song literally saved me. I can't remember a time when music wasn't an influencing factor in my life. So glad you too are enjoying my all time favorite rock band, Journey. Give a listen to "Be Good to Yourself" and "Why Can't This Night Go On Forever" from their Raised on Radio album (1986). "Only The Young" and "Ask The Lonely" from their Frontiers album (1983) are just some of their hidden gems...they won't disappoint, but as far as I'm concerned, Journey and Steve Perry never disappoint!!!

Hey I wanted to let u know that Journeys song CAN'T STOP BELIEVING was inducted in the U.S. Library Of Congress! Congratulations JOURNEY!!

I appreciate how you appreciate the old school music! Nothing better out there anywhere.

Born 1970, all these songs brings back my childhood. 70's had amazing bands and so glad I was around to hear them on radio back than. Could never go wrong with Journey. Thank you

I've never seen this one before! Nice, I Really enjoyed this old video... Thank you! (Winds of March) and (Still they ride) are also great songs of theirs...

You listening to the good old 70’s and 80’s music like Journey must be like opening a treasure box. 🤗👍🏻

Steve Perry has the best voice in rock music! I saw them in concert and Steve’s voice echoes in my soul. 👵🏼☮️❤️

Midnight Special is a goldmine of amazing live performances!!!!!

Wolfman freaking Jack! He did a stint at Knott's Scary Farm back in the 80's with Elvira! He was standing in the audience during a trick, smoking a cig!

Greg Rollie was the singer on Santana's Black Magic Woman.

There will never be another power voice like Steve Perry. Journey was a sound that will never be matched. Never. Awesome musicians!🎼❤️

I'm 56 and had all my teen years in the 80's....from what I remember it was fantastic! No really, we went to so many concerts it was such a great time and I would do it again in a heartbeat! I am soooo glad to be taking this in with you.

Such an amazing band. You should react to Stay Awhile !

Huge hit makers and Perry's voice is insane!

I was 13 years old in 1978 and I appreciate that you made a playlist so I could relive a time when things were simpler 😘😘😘 I was born in 1965 and I feel like I have enjoyed the best of the best when it comes to music and journey is DEFINITELY on my top 10. THANK YOU SO MUCH THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU❤️❤️❤️

I saw Journey about a year after this, 1979. I was 19, just out if high school. They made a pit stop in our little SW Florida city while in between their Miami and Tampa concerts. They, and Steve Perry, will always be the highlight of all my concert experiences.

The singing keyboardist (Gregg Rolie) is the cofounder of Journey with Neil Schon and the original vocalist before Steve Perry came on board. If Greggs voice sounds familiar it's because he was the original keyboardist and lead vocalist for Santana in their first tree albums and also contributed on four others. Neil Schon joined Santana during the third album and a couple years later both Neil and Gregg set out to form a "band for hire" band named The Golden Gate Rhythm Section that eventually became Journey after some personal changes and music direction... the rest is rock history

I was 15 years old when they were on the Midnight Special. Every Friday night, my dad bought pizza, sodas and at 12am after everyone was content we'd watch MNS. Those were the days!!!!

One thing that sets you apart from all the other reaction channels is you got a real soul!

Journey 1979 those were the days, the good old times. My heart yearns for them in this mixed up time in this world. It makes me so sad, bc it's so unecessary. Pray Everyone!

Yes, times were hard back then. We listened to music that featured singers that could actually sing and didn't have to crank up the instrumentals to cover up the singers that couldn't sing. Life was Great!

was in high school, loved these guys. would stay up to watch the midnight special

My favorite era too, very raw. I lived in the LA area, I was 15 when they were performing at the time in LA!!!

I remember watching this! As a 16 year old, I made sure I was in front of the tv when Midnight Special came on👍

93 baby here man and I can still remember getting a teal Walkman tape player for Christmas one year and my mom had a journey tape. Man what a time to be alive. I feel like I missed out.

Wow, his voice is just so incredible

Ohhhh! This was Perry's big introduction to the nation. They took off a while after this, and there was no stopping them. Loved it! Peace and bright blessings.

Classic! Some real gems. Thank you for doing these! Your love for the real Journey and Steve Perry is clear. You're killing it!

If this show took place on April 28, 1978, it was my 10th birthday! Didn't know their music until the 80's. Been a fan ever since.

Love, love, Journey 💘 great memories of the 80s.

This was Journey at it's best. Greg Rollie (keyboards) complements Steve Perry very well. Got to see them twice in the mid 70's.

"Patiently" was the first song that Steve Perry and Neal Schon wrote together. Steve wrote the lyrics, and Neal wrote the music for the song.

Anytime must, forever and always, follow immediately after Feeling That Way.

Those were the days. I graduated from high school in 1978, and from the 60’s to the 70’s, the music was the best. ❤. Yes, Steve Perry’s voice was breath taking. You should listen to his ‘a cappella’ version of their song, Good Morning Girl. Well, i was going to bed, but discovered you! Thank you for this road into the past. ❤

On the Infinity record, Feelin That Way and Anytime are almost one long song. Anytime picks up the SECOND FTW ends.

They were really good and just got better over the years...my Favorite band ever!!❤❤❤

I love your reactions-It's wonderful to see how much you understand and appreciate real talent from our time era whether it's the 60s, 70s, or 80s!

I grew up listening to this and many other great bands in the 70's. And thankfully I listened to many MoTown Artists as well. On Saturdays I would watch American Bandstand and then Soul Train, then later that evening I would watch HeHaw, The Buck Owens hour, then the Porter Wagoner show and then cap it off with The Lawrence Welk Show. So you could say I got my music exposure to just about everything. I wish everyone else would have had that experience.

Love it. Ty I was hoping someday you could put up Lights and Stay Awhile.

He was doing a Cheech and Chong imitation in his portrayal of someone after the show at 2 am. It's great to see you liking that song the way I do. That singer can really sing.

I've never heard this before.. thank you.. this is great, the guy on keyboards.. I don't know his name. I'm an 80's child and I remember Jonathan Cain on Keyboards. this is old school for me .. and he's singing with Steve.. wow..

I'm glad you reacted to the Midnight Special and the many songs Journey played in the 1970s and especially introducing Steve Perry to the world in 1978.

Oh what a voice he had, great music, thanks fir this reminder!

Sound track of Jr. High school , never owned one of their albums but the songs were on the radio all the time , these guys and Boston , Yes , Led Zeppelin, Foreigner, Kansas, the Eagles etc…

It was so much fun watching you get to experience these songs I love so much. Thanks for sharing with us. 💜

OMG, this brought back so many memories. I grew in the 70s and 80s. We didn't know how lucky we were ❤

I love this incredible man.

I'm from the 70s and I thought I heard every song but omg that last song I never knew journey had that hard rock sound in them

Yeahh Steve Perry's Voice is Phenomenal! Journey is AMAZING! Yeah Adogg I agree,you should do a top 10 of your fav.Bands.❤

I listened to Wolfman Jack on my radio!! He had an LA radio station, back then. Everyone wanted to listen to what he was playing!!! Glad today's young people appreciate the best music sounds!! Will never be the same!!🥰

I was in 8th grade! I had such a crush on Steve Perry and that voice.

" Patiently " was the first song Steve Perry and Neal Schon wrote together. Some of Journey's songs were written by Steve before he joined the band.

Great reactions, Man! Enjoying watching and listening so much. ❤️🎶🎶🤩✨✨✨

Brings me back to the “Day on The Green” Oakland California. Great memories seeing the 70’s bands

Journey's second singer seems like he was right out of the Viet Nam War. So much emotion... Deep. Sempre Fi Bro.

I love to watch you enjoy them. They're songs never get old.😊

Next look into journey pbs 1978, you’ll be blown away how steve sing blues. He is so amazingly tremendously good.

Gregg Rolie, the guy playing the keyboard and singing some of the songs was also the keyboardists and singer for many Santa songs, such as "Black Magic Woman." The guitarist, Neal Schon, was also one of Santa's guitarist's

Gregg Rolie and Neil Schonn were part of Santana prior to this group. Gregg was the lead singer for Santana. Check out Santana's Woodstock performance.

Steve Perry...my goodness, WHAT a voice! 💗

My gosh, I’d give my right arm if I could have seen Journey. My birthday is a couple of days from Steve’s. Maybe he’ll come have a cup of coffee with me & we could talk endlessly! Wouldn’t that be nice? Your mother would be so proud of how you turned out! Take care of yourself, Steve! Your fans love you & keep well.

Thankyou for sharing this with us, i love their music, a voice is a gift from the heavenly Father, Thankyou Father YHVH ❤

So adorable 🥰the 70s r just amazing I feel young again at 63 never heard a lot of these bands in so long 🫠🙃

yasss !!! we here Adogg for Steve / Journey ❤️❤️👍🏽👍🏽

It was BEYOND AWESOME!! BORN IN 1960 SO PERFECT TIME FOR THE BEST MUSIC OF ALL TIMES!!

OMG, they performed "Patiently", I can't believe I never remembered that! Well, I should've just let this play out before putting down my comment, huh?

Growing up with this music was awesome ❤ Wasn't in to the 80s-90s music as much! Hated the techno, etc! Love when we can get down to real vocals & instrumentals!❤ My Dad had an AMAZING deep rich voice, he also was a very funny man & could really play with his voice! Was in Germany with Elvis, but refused to sing with him. Not sure what the issue was, but suspect pride. Dad was the local ladies man that everyone adored. Not easy on Mom, lol. Anyway, Mom had a great soprano to compliment Dad, & my sister also ended up with a huge power voice & was known to do alot of Barbara Streisand, Whitney, & Mariah Carey! Too much smoking & she doesn't sing much but her son, on the spectrum is extremely talented on instruments & vocals! Was getting bigger & larger venues in Seattle while still in high school, & apparently very popular!❤ He got the funny gene as well as talent too!😂❤ Anyway, I love hearing the music before computers started getting over used! The purity & & quality in each person's giftings such a delight ❤

Wow! My generations MTV. This and that Don Kirshner's Rock Concert, both were on over the weekend at midnight. I did get to see these guys in "82 & '83.

Now, you should react to Journey on the Midnight Special in 1979!!

Patiently is one of my favorite songs by Journey

I was 18 in 1978, and am so happy to have lived through that time. It truly was an amazing time to be around for the music. Steve Perry had us all memorized. I missed most of the Midnight Specials because we were never home until after 1am. Good times for sure. Thank you for this!

I loved your reaction. Thanks for putting a smile on my face.

Old school Journey! I was 11 and already in love with this band and Steve Perry! Crazy seeing this after just watching Live in Houston 1981. They sounded great in both situations but really sort of different. In Houston they're more relaxed and completely full out rocking. But I remember this and loved it! They sounded incredible! This is what made us Journey fans!!!

Look at those bell bottom pants! Ha! Amazing how style changes over time. But great voice even then... I love it.

I was born in the mid 70s and don't remember this. I didn't know journey until open arms. I remember how much I love that song when I first heard it.
