Journey Wheel In The Sky Demo with Robert Fleischman

[MidNiteE5C4P386]

It doesn't take a primary writer of one song to make a band it takes The Voice Steve Perry too, plus Journey has many more hits that can out way one song RF wrote! So ya it was all SP. End of Story.

[MidNiteE5C4P386]

Thank Goodness Journey got Steve Perry who else there probably wouldn't of ever been a Journey, and Robert F. Tries to make it seem like he made Journey, he co wrote one song and SP perfected it, so ya

@wheelinthesky300.. Robert F. is the main writer of this song. I know it for a fact because he was my neighboor for many years. He was known in writer circles as the main writer AND I saw royalty checks in his name for that song amongst others. He is a nice guy.

I Love the Robert Fleischman days. Journey is & was a great band !

[freestanding1000]

Actually his voals are quite impressive. Top notch rock style, power and range. Love Steve as Journey's best vocalist and one of best all time rock vocalists but Robert is quite amazing.

[CusterFlux]

Bad fit - simple as that.

The whole's gotta be greater than the sum of the parts - or why bother?

[Steven205]

He almost sounds like a girl at times.........

[Andromuda]

pathetic

[Gmama51]

Good but not Steve Perry

Hey, thanks for posting this. I was doing some Journey research and heard this guy's name and thought I'd research him.....I sort of feel bad for the guy, but I'm sure he got paid for all of the success this song got......

[wheelinthesky300]

Let me get this straight

-Fleischman writes this masterpiece and his vocals can rip your testicles off

and it looks like Journey finally has a commercial product with integrity

but Fleischman kind of annoys Herbie Herbert and then

...................Herbert fires him.

Way to go, Herbie.

Then Herbie hires Steve Perry, and within like 2 years Perry is annoying the shit out of Herbie.

What, then, was the point of firing Fleischman?

[NoSteveNoPoint]

@wheelinthesky300 Fleischman DID NOT write this song! Ross Vallories WIFE along with Ross, and Neal wrote this. ( Check the INLAY of the INFINITY album.)

[wheelinthesky300]

@NoSteveNoPoint Wrong.

Fleischman is the primary writer of Wheel In The Sky.

He has stated this in audio and print interviews.

@wheelinthesky300 Well it's not listed on the remastered INFINITY CD inlay I have.

[NoJboysAPN0Journey]

what if Robert was the lead singer of Infinity album thus this guy had never been the chance to release one album before firing. He sang like Freddie Mercury side B

[merrypeary]

He doesn't sing with as much emotion as Steve Perry IMO.

[RandRdriver]

I enjoyed that!

[twistofreak]

NICE! Never knew this existed..

[InMyLonelyFeelings]

He really does have quite a powerful voice, but I have to agree with, theelevan1. Perry's vocals just fit with it more.

[EddieATurner]

Wow, very interesting

[NoJboysAPN0Journey]

i couldn't believe you found this.

[theelevan1]

Powerful vocals and a range that equals Steve Perry's. Schon's guitar soloing is much freer and prominent throughout; Not overproduced like the final version. Ironically, I do think Perry's voice is more suitable for the song and I hope Fleiscman is receiving plenty of royalties for the song and the album it's on. I have to check out his V work with Vinnie Vincent. Excellent find. Did you get this on a boot? Thanks for sharing.

@theelevan1

I found it on a website when I got a live concert of Journey with Robert Fleischman. I heard that he did other demos for the Infinity album, but I haven't been able to find them. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
