Steve Perry The Season 3

Until a few years ago, fans wondered if Steve Perry - the best known voice of blockbuster rock band Journey - would ever sing again after a lengthy absence from the public eye. After a celebrated comeback album in 2018, Perry ended his shortest gap between solo releases three years later, with the holiday album The Season; this Christmas, it's being reissued a third time on a new label, with even more new material. True to its name, The Season 3 is the third iteration of Perry's holiday

Dolly Parton Rockstar

"If I'm gonna be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I'm going to have to earn it," Dolly Parton commented upon her 2022 induction into the Cleveland hall.  She promised that a rock and roll album was on the way, and today, she made good on that promise...with what essentially amounts to two such records!  On November 17, Dolly's own Butterfly Records in association with Big Machine will release Rockstar, a whopping 2-CD or 4-LP collection with 30 songs featuring some of the biggest names in the

steve perry street talk

It'd be easy to imagine former Journey frontman Steve Perry doing little besides sitting on a pile of money and denying the opportunity to reunite with his old band. In fact, the singer has been hard at work revisiting his solo debut, Street Talk, for an audiophile release. Perry, who has effusively praised the quality of Journey's forthcoming Greatest Hits Volume 2 release, recently took to The Mastering Lab in Ojai, California, to remaster his hit album alongside engineer Robert Hadley for a
