Infinity (1978) |
Journey's third album, Next, was released in 1977 (see 1977 in music).
Journey continued the formula from 1976's "Look into the Future" but this album contains less lengthy compositions, though it still retains much of Journey's jazz-flavored progressiveness from the first two albums.
Songs include the opening, moody number, "Spaceman", as well as standout rocker "Hustler", and the instrumental "Nickel and Dime", the latter of which bears a striking resemblance to Rush's 1981 hit "Tom Sawyer".
Highest chart position: #85
