All American

In the world of music, "All American" recalls Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.  Born and raised American musicians formed in Gainesville, Florida.  Examples of the band's most famous songs include -

"Learning to Fly"
"Mary Jane's Last Dance"
"Refugee"
"Into the Great Wide Open"
"Here Comes My Girl"

...and many more when Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers formed in 1976.

In this post, though, I am traveling to the west coast for another All American band - Journey.  Born and raised American musicians formed in San Francisco, California.  Examples of the band's most famous songs include -

Don't Stop Believin'
Faithfully
Wheel in the Sky
Who's Crying Now
Lights

...and many more when Journey formed n 1973.

"Lights"

By far my most favorite Journey song discovered on Journey's Greatest Hits album.
