    Sounds like Paul Stanley fronting Journey. Definitely not as good as the 38 Special version.

    Donnie you usually articulate so well what I wish to say, but I cannot agree 100% this time. First off, the original is way better. However I will use a trite analogy: Survivor may have won the battle but .38 Special won the war. And they are from the south. Rock on!

    What can I say - I'm biased toward .38 lol. But I do like Survivor and their version sounds good. But...if it ain't Donnie and Don singing it I just can't get into it quite the same way. It's just the hillbilly in me

    I know, and you're right - our savages are pretty violent. Throwing rocks at cars passing under a bridge and jerking people out of cars is third world shit. And let's not dick around here - they ain't pissed off about being oppressed or anything else. They just want to destroy stuff and basically go nuts. But fear not - we're having a rally I mean meeting about this very thing tonite

    On the other hand, not even "Second Chance" was as lame as "The Search Is Over" (and that was easily 38 Special's low point)

    It really was. What a shitty song. But, at least Don came back and all was right with the world again. At least until Donnie's ear got all messed up. Jesus, can't they just give him like some magical noise canceling earbuds so he can still perform live?? And yes, I'm actually asking Jesus to intervene here.

    You may not realize how many hits former Survivor star Jim Peterik has written or co-written over the years, including “Vehicle” by Ides of March, Sammy Hagar‘s “Heavy Metal,” .38 Special‘s “Hold on Loosely” and his own band’s smash “Eye of the Tiger.”
    His new album, The Songs, casts a revealing light on this body of work by re-framing many of Peterik’s most popular songs in an intimate acoustic setting. As an example, we’re premiering the video for Peterik’s rearranged version of another hit song he co-wrote for .38 Special, “Caught Up in You.”

    “I’ve always had a special place in my heart for ‘Caught Up In You’ since the day I wrote it with Don Barnes and Jeff Carlisi of .38 Special,” Peterik explains. “It’s the kind of summer hit that resonated with people in June of 1982. But when my producer, Fred Mollin, insisted on re-imagining the song for my new CD, I had my doubts if the patient could survive such a radical reworking. What did I know? I absolutely love the way this song has taken on an almost classical feel; very formal, with a 12-piece string section and spare backing vocals by my son Colin Peterik.”

    The video, shot and directed by John Dykas and Mark Voss, features five members of the string ensemble, including Chich Suan and Andy Ohlrich on violin. To learn more about The Songs, and to keep up with Peterik’s diverse and prolific music career, visit his official website.
    Survivor, and Jim Peterik/Frankie Sullivan in particular as the main writers of the groups material, have always been pretty straightforward in wanting to create commercial pop rock material that was accessible to as wide a range of the record buying public as possible. Sure, once Jamison joined, the band certainly put out a lot of cheesy stuff that weren't things I particularly cared for. But they had their success and their moment in the sun from 1982 to about 1986: a decent amount of top 10 singles.

    With the track Caught Up In You, the lyrics are pretty trite, but no more so than any of .38 Specials original tunes. With .38 Special, for me the interest I had in that band was the three guitars weaving together with that semi-light Southern rock style. The vocals/lyrics were always secondary.

    I saw them in 97. I wasn't expecting to see Don Barnes back in the band. I thought Max Carl was still the lead singer. Saw them with ZZ Top, Little Feat and Corey Stevens. It was a free show celebrating Mark and Brian' tenth year on KLOS FM in L A. I used several different names and addresses to get free tickets then the day before the show my roommate won two tickets fairly close to the stage. The freebies were all general admission lawn tickets. I gave them away on the way in.

    Yeah, that feature seemed to work a bit better live for them: on the studio stuff for the most part both of them were playing pretty much the same exact parts. They were a pretty good band live. Their studio stuff initially was pretty good until about 1984 or so. Then I lost interest.
