Journey’s Neal Schon has revealed that his new solo album Vortex will be released on June 23. “I feel more aware and alive now than I’ve ever been,” he says in pre-release materials. “Part of that is the sobriety I’ve had for the last seven years. I’ve also evolved as a person and a player though understanding the value of being in the moment – letting things happen and not thinking too much.” He adds, “There’s an old blues saying: ‘If you’re thinkin,’ you’re stinkin’.’ When you stop thinking and just play from the heart, you discover your own voice. That’s the real thing, and that’s what Vortex is about for me.” Schon served as both producer and bassist for the new record. Steve Smith played drums and Jan Hammer provided keyboards for the record. Keyboardist Igor Len is also featured. Copyright(c) 2015 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
