Former Tyketto lead-singer Steve Augeri did a great job replacing the popular front-man Steve Perry. The opening track InchHigher PlaceInch is the epitome of a great melodic rock song with it's catchy chorus and Neal Schon's fine guitar riffs. From the should-have-been-huge ballad InchAll The WayInch to the moody, jamming InchAll The ThingsInch to the amazing slow blues song InchLivin' To DoInch to the epic rockers InchWorld Gone WildInch and InchTo Be Alive AgainInch, this album is an absolute delight from the progressive Californian hard-rockers. This line-up on Journey's eleventh album with newcomers vocalist Steve Augeri and drummer Deen Castronovo have developed a beautiful masterpiece of rock 'n roll! Album Tracks 1. Higher Place 2. All the Way 3. Signs of Life 4. All the Things 5. Loved By You 6. Livin' to Do 7. World Gone Wild 8. I Got a Reason 9. With Your Love 10. Lifetime of Dreams 11. Live and Breathe 12. Nothin' Comes Close 13. To Be Alive Again 14. Kiss Me Softly 15. We Will Meet Again
