THE ALBUM OF THE DAY
JOURNEY...Journey's Greatest Hits  (1988
15 million sold and counting. It only reached number 10 on the US Billboard album charts but it continues to sell around a million units a year. Pretty good for an album that's 25 years old. It is a fun listen, containing all the favorite Journey hits we all know and love. I highly recommend it for your collection
(CD, vinyl, Allmusic review)
