About The Record:

Captured, is Journey's first live album. It was released on January 30, 1981 on the Columbia Records label. The album reached No. 9 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and went on to sell two million copies having RIAA two times platinum award. This album was recorded during the band's Departure Tour in 1980. Tracks 1 to 4 were taken from a performance recorded at The Forum in Montreal, Quebec, Canada on August 8, 1980. Tracks 5 & 6 were from the performance at the end of the tour in Koseinenkin Hall, Shinjyuku, Tokyo, Japan on October 13, 1980 and tracks 7 to 16 came from two shows at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan on August 4 & 5, 1980. The song Dixie Highway had not previously been (nor was it subsequently) recorded on any Journey studio album. Closing the album is the lone studio track, The Party's Over (Hopelessly in Love), which was released as a single. In the liner notes, the album is dedicated to AC/DC lead singer Bon Scott, who died in February 1980. Scott is referred to as "a friend from the highway," as AC/DC had supported Journey the previous year on their "If You Want Blood" tour. This was the last Journey album for keyboard player and founder Gregg Rolie. Record World called the single The Party's Over (Hopelessly in Love) a "shining testimony to the band's commanding stage presence."
