Music Review The group’s name is Journey and it is composed of former members from Santana, The Mothers, David Bowie and The Steve Miller Band. Organized two years ago. Journey has quickly established itself as one of the bright new bands of San Fran cisco, according to Jay Arnold of “The Hollywood Reporter”. Instead of heavy metal, where the sound of every instrument hits you at once. Journey’s sound can best be described as heavy space— a type of Nine paintings stolen Tuesday Associated Press SAN ANTONIO — A young man posing as a flower delivery boy en tered the home of millionaire W. L. Moody III, held him and two other persons at gunpoint and stole nine original paintings including works by Goya, Gainsborough and Van Eyck. Police said the young man took the paintings Tuesday morning and fled after pushing Moody, 62, and his companions into a bathroom and two closets and nailing them shut. Alfrieda Rief, 52, a maid, told police she answered the back door bell to find a young man with short brown hair bolding two pots of wilted flowers. The man said the flowers were for Mrs. Moody. He then pulled a gun and pushed past Mrs. Rief, locked her in a nearby bathroom and nailed the door shut. The robbery was discovered shortly after noon when Mrs. Katherine Moody, 50, returned to find her husband and maid in their respective closets. music that bathes the senses, where each instrument is articulate and stands out individually. Shedding the Latin-sound influence from the ex-Santana members, in favor of rock, the group updates the psychedelic openness of the late Six ties Beatles, Grateful Dead and Jef ferson Airplane with their own brand of space rock. Tbe members of Journey include organist/singer Gregg Rolie and 21- year-old wbiz kid guitarist Neal Schon, both from Santana. Bassist Ross Valory played in several smaller Bay Area groups before joining The Steve Miller Band in 1971. Aynsley Dunbar is the only non-Californian in the band; the English drummer started with John Mayall, formed Retaliation and then played with the “200 Motels” version of The Mothers and later with David Bowie. The Bay’s best band is currently on tour and will be performing in Houston with The Marshall Tucker Band and The Doobie Brothers Sunday, April 25. They have re cently been on the road with Electric Light Orchestra promoting their re cent album Look Into The Future. Music critics from “The Rolling Stone”, “Iconoclast” and “The Hol lywood Reporter” agree if Journey can avoid the big-name ego hassles, all the glitter gimmicks and satin camouflage that have ruined rock and keep themselves together as a group, they could become one of the best rock bands around. Journey’s intelligent, no- nonsense rock sound currently em phasizes Schon’s guitar as the motive force. His guitar style is particularly expressive and because Rolie is the only singer in the band, Schon con siders the guitar his voice. Using a smooth blend of their di verse Santana and English blues. Journey has produced such songs as “Mystery Mountain”, from their first album Journey, “In My Lonely Feeling” and the title cut from their latest album Looking Into The Fu ture.
