For Monday’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45, we celebrate the 69th birthday of Journey’s Neal Schon with Journey’s “I’ll Be Alright Without You”.
Born on February 27, 1954 at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma, Neal started his musical journey at the age of 17 when he joined Santana. In 1973, he and Gregg Rolie, who was also in Santana, formed Golden Gate Rhythm Section, which eventually became Journey, a band Schon has now been in for 50 years.
“I’ll Be Alright Without You” was from their 9th album “Raised on Radio” and the song went on to be a #14 hit for the band in 1987.
Check out the live video from Journey, with today’s Forgotten 45!
