Evolution is the fifth studio album by the American rock band Journey, released in March 1979 by Columbia Records. It is the band's first album to feature drummer Steve Smith. It was the band's most successful album at the time, reaching number 20 on the US Billboard 200 chart, and has sold three million copies in the US. They retained Roy Thomas Baker (best known for his work with Queen) as producer. Evolution features their first top 20 hit, "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'," which was inspired by the classic Sam Cooke top 20 hit "Nothin' Can Change This Love" and reached number 16 in the US. This record and its sleeve are both in Very Good condition. It also includes the original inner sleeve.
