On May 9, 1979, Journey recorded a live performance. The concert followed the release of their 5th studio LP Evolution; released March 20, 1979.
Many of the early performances were recorded by local audio/video company ListenUp, which was instrumental in the 1980s in introducing compact discs to the US market for the first time. [3] At one memorable concert at Rainbow Music Hall, ListenUp CEO, Walton Stinson tricked an audience of 1,000 into believing they were listening to a live performance of the band Grub Stake, but had segued the performance into a digital recording mid-performance to demonstrate the superior quality of digital audio over analog technology.
