The frontman of ’70s-era Canada-based band called Privilege told the story of how Steve Perry was a “starving drummer” prior to joining Journey.
Andy Krawchuk of Privilege agreed to let Perry join his band around 1976. “Steve was a starving drummer doing session work, but he was also in a band,” Krawchuk tells Hicksbiz.com. “He loved our horns and came to see us in Hollywood when Privilege was warming up for the Ike and Tina Turner Review. … We developed a nice friendship.”
