Probably all the Journey you’ll ever need—and, for many, quite possibly more. Time³ is the quintessential box set: exhaustive, chronological, and lovingly curated. What sets this particular anthology apart from the usual retrospective sprawl is its willingness to dig deeper than the radio hits and to shed light on the lesser-known, pre–Steve Perry incarnation of the band. These early tracks, often overshadowed by the band's later chart dominance, reveal a group with very different aspirations—more fusion-rooted, less polished, and, in some ways, more musically adventurous. And, crucially, quite good.
Included too are a handful of rare demos, featuring an alternate lead vocalist who briefly flirted with frontman status before Perry was permanently installed. These moments, though perhaps more historical footnotes than career highlights, give valuable insight into the transitional state of the band—a group still searching for its voice before landing on the one that would make them icons.
If there’s a shortfall, it’s in the substitution of several familiar songs with their live counterparts (drawn from the Captured album). While energetic and serviceable, these renditions lack the pristine, high-gloss impact of the original studio recordings. It's a curious curatorial decision, especially given the set’s otherwise encyclopedic ambition.
Still, such quibbles are minor. As box sets go, Time³ delivers what any fan—or even the mildly curious—could ask of it: history, context, hits, and a few surprises. It may not be essential listening from start to finish, but it stands as a comprehensive document of Journey's evolution, from obscure prog roots to platinum-selling juggernauts.
