Personally I would've said that Journey are one of the greatest of all American rock bands, especially the Steve Perry era. Great songs, great albums,great musicians and great live. Frontiers is easily one of my all time favourite albums.

You think so? I thought they had a great blues sound with Peter Green as well as the 8 albums prior to Nicks joining (ruining) the band.

You should check out their early stuff, it's good. Then Play On and Bare Trees.

Are you trying to imply that Rumors isn't ****ing fantastic? For shame.

I'll take Fleetwood Mac over any of these bands, with the possible exceptions of Boston and Styx. Having said that, none of them are "bad" by any means.

My opinion yes. It is one of the worst albums ever recorded. It goes to show more people prefer music that has no soul or skill over music that has soul and requires talent to master. It was the late 70s and disco was popular. The only reason why that album got any hype. It's a shame because it's not even good. At all. Also, nothing Fleetwood Mac recorded was good after the girls joined the band. Absolute radio pop garbage.

My .02

Because pop music is inherently inferior to other forms of music? It's a brilliant pop record.

Ya, right alongside MJ's Thriller, Floyd's DSOTM, and LZ IV.
