Journey - Escape

It's hard to describe the epitome of coolness that was Journey in 1981 when this album was released. Nobody was cooler than Steve Perry in Jordache jeans, shirt open down to his belly button with hair that took at least an hour to blow dry and feather back properly.

When this album was released, I was a sophmore in high school, on the verge of getting my driver's license. Before even buying my first car, I got a 8 track tape deck that I had ready to install, with the Journey Escape album one of the handful of 8 tracks I had raring to go.
