- I've only heard Journey's first album on LP and there are no notes saying
- who plays what instruments. The band is the same one on Infinity, but there is
- also someone named George Ticketon(not sure about last name, it's this or
- something close). He has writing credits on a few songs. What is his role in
- the band. I don't recall him being on Next, so I assume he was only on the
- first album. Thanks for any help in advance.
