''Departure'' is the sixth studio album by the American rock band Journey. It was released in March 1980 on the Columbia Records label. ''Departure'' would be the band's highest charting album to date, giving Journey their first appearance in the top 10 of the Billboard album charts, peaking at No. 8. The album includes "Any Way You Want It", the lead off track and top 25 single.〔 The album featured an edgier sound, thanks partly to the "live in studio" way the songs were recorded.〔 The band went into The Automatt studio with 19 tracks, eventually trimming down to 12.〔 ''Departure'' would mark the last full-time studio album appearance of founding member Gregg Rolie, and his penultimate recording with the band: his final contributions would appear on ''Dream, After Dream'', a soundtrack album to the Japanese film of the same name, which would also be released in 1980. Rolie had become tired of life on the road and decided to leave the band after assisting in the selection of his replacement, Jonathan Cain, then of The Babys. Rolie sang lead vocals on only one song on ''Departure'', the ballad "Someday Soon". In 1986, Columbia reissued ''Departure'' on compact disc in the U.S. and Europe. They subsequently remastered the album in 1996. BMG/Columbia remastered ''Departure'' again in 2006 for European, Japanese and American listeners, adding bonus tracks 13 "Natural Thing" and 14 "Little Girl". Dave Donnelly at DNA Mastering in New York City led the 2006 project. ==Track listing== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Departure (Journey album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
