US hard rock legends JOURNEY held a CD Premiere for their new album, Revelation, on the US nationally syndicated radio show Rockline with host Bob Coburn on Wednesday, May 28th.
The show is now streaming online at this location.
As previously reported, Journey's new three-disc CD/DVD package Revelation sold more than 104,000 copies in its debut week according to Wal-Mart Stores, marking the band’s biggest first week’s sales since 1996’s Trial By Fire.
Released June 3rd, Revelation is being sold exclusively at Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club in North America, Walmart.com and Samsclub.com, and Journey’s official website, Journeymusic.com. Revelation’s first week’s sales marks a 1400% increase over the band’s 2005’s first week’s sales of Generations.
"We are thrilled with the early success of Journey's ‘Revelation’ music project, and clearly our customer is excited about it too,” said Jeff Maas, Divisional Merchandise Manager, Entertainment, Wal-Mart US. “We believe that if we continue to find innovative products, priced to showcase the value, our customers will show their excitement by purchasing the product. Journey has been great to work with and clearly this reflects a win for them and for our customer.”
The first disc consists of 11 new songs, the second is filled with 11 re-recorded classics, and the third is a live, in-concert DVD. All of the music on Revelation was produced by Kevin Shirley (who previously worked with Journey on their platinum-certified Trial By Fire album).
Journey - Neal Schon (guitar), Jonathan Cain (keyboards), Ross Valory (bass), Deen Castronovo (drums) and Arnel Pineda (vocals)—is currently on a European tour through June 28th. They’ll start a massive summer US tour with special guests HEART and CHEAP TRICK on July 9th in Denver, CO.
