Launch July 15, 2022

Edition 2 LPs

Live in Houston 1981: The Escape Tour collects a live performance by American rock band Journey, released in November 2005. The contents of the package were also released in May 2006 as a separate CD and a separate DVD on the Columbia Records label.

Material from the show was recorded and filmed for the then-fledgling MTV network on Journey's Escape tour in November 1981 at The Summit in Houston, Texas, at the peak of the band's commercial success.

It includes hits such as "Lights", "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'", "Wheel in the Sky" and "Any Way You Want It", along with songs from Journey's then-album Escape, such as its title track, "Open Arms", "Who's Crying Now" and "Don't Stop Believin'".

The vinyl version of the concert closes with the song "Party's Over (Hopelessly in Love)" which does not appear on the DVD.
