What does a wildly successful purveyor of `80s big hair power ballads do in an ensuing decade dominated by fervent shoe-gazing and other attendant alt.cliches? If you're Jon Bon Jovi, you scale back your band's ambitions, retool yourself as surprisingly accomplished indie film and TV actor, and (mostly) wait for the pop music tides to turn in your favor again. But JBJ and guitarist/collaborator Richie Sambora didn't let their band's lukewarm `90s fortunes dampen their knack for hook-savvy songcraft, as this muscular anthem-fest argues at virtually every turn. BJ's songs here may be as infectious as ever, yet they're seldom mere confections, often infused with alternating doses of bracing cynicism (the title track's sarcastic riposte to the '04 election) and reflective, often bittersweet takes on histories both personal and otherwise. If it sometimes stoops to formula--the droning, metallic ethos of the obligatory big ballad "I Am" can't overcome some equally perfunctory lyrics-it's also an album with its share of warm surprises, be they unexpected nods to Dylan ("Last Man Standing," the acoustic idealism of "Bells of Freedom"), the hard-edged "I Want to Live" or a winning duet with Sugarland's Jennifer Nettles, "Who Says You Can't Go Home." Bon Jovi may deliver a sonically burnished triumph here by largely going back to the future--yet does it with one ear crucially cocked towards the anxious energy of the recent past. -- Jerry McCulley

Morph from Ork.......2007-06-17

Hints of a country band realized.....That said Bon Jovi brings you.....Lost Highway. There have always been overtures towards country music from JBJ from Wanted: Dead or Alive, to The Blaze of Glory soundtrack. You knew, however, that they would be followed up with a Bad Medicine or 99 In The Shade. It is becoming apparent, as they age, that they will rock less and croon more..... Sad but true. JBJ's Slippery When Wet voice abandoned him years ago. He's learned to pick his spots, like an aging fastball pitcher. But....he is from Jersey so...I like him....I'll just listen to SWW and NJ more! Keppin the Faith!

Good CD.......2007-06-10

First I must say that the last review is uncalled for. I guess you are just jealous about the Penguins AND Bon Jovi.

This cd is defiantly worth every penny! It's a must have for every Bon Jovi fan!

SUCKY BAND.......2007-06-09

I hate fricking Bon Jovi more then Mario Lemieux and Sidney Crosby combined. I would like to take a crane and give them a wedgie so huge in their tight leather purple pants that it rips their anuses in two.

Customer Reviews:

Decent Start...but hopefully a better one will come along.......2007-07-10

As far as greatest hits by the band, this I believe is the first one of studio cuts anyway. I saw this one in the Spring in the top Ten at Amazon, and was wondering why all the sudden interest in Bon Jovi, of course they did just come out with a new CD, and the new stuff is pretty good, me myself recently got the Remasters of their first 3 or 4 Cd's, and I admit that "Keep The Faith" was the last one I bought...But I did get the big box set of rarities 100 Million fans can't be wrong, so they are indeed my major rock guilty pleasure.

Is there no "Essential" Bon Jovi yet?, didn't see one...I was hoping for a 2 CD set of their hits along with a few deeper album cuts by now not that I need that, just that it would seem it's time for that since they've been around for 20 plus years now. Hopefully it isn't far off, this band deserves a better career collection than this one, I can't imagine the casual fan wanting this lacking set, even the order is strange. Of course the hardcore Bon Jovi fan likes about every one of their songs, maybe only 4 or 5 from the first album, but even I like most of the songs on 7800 degrees, and an essential would have to have Tokyo Road and Silent Night on it or I would not buy it. As far as Slippery, New Jersey...every song on those should be essential, maybe one or two left off...and that they are not on the greatest hits as this is known, is a major flaw. I'm thinking the ultimate Bon Jovi greatest hits set would have to have at least 4 songs each from the first two CD's, and then maybe 5 or 6 from Slippery, New Jersey, and Keep The Faith? That would fill out 2 Cd's I think and make a nice collection; better than this one for sure.

Hopefully fans new and old will get a better restrospective soon, this one is a nice start I guess, but I would highly recommend checking out their remastered catalog for more hits. They don't have many duds at all at least on their first 4 or 5 Cd's. The late 90's one's I don't know, perhaps an essential collection would contain some newer songs...but classic Bon Jovi is good enough for now.

A great Bon Jovi collection.......2007-06-09

For the most part, this is a great Bon Jovi collection. I do not equally enjoy every song on this album, but this collection includes nearly all of their early hits.

Cross Road.......2007-06-09

I love this CD, it's awesome, the songs are the best. Especially "Always", "Bed of Roses" and "I'll be there for you"

Decent Beginner's Set.......2007-05-22

For people who only know Bon Jovi from their "Have A Nice Day" and beyond years, "Cross Road" is a very good collection of tunes for them to check out. It gives the listener a solid set of their most popular tunes from their hair band heyday before they got all earthy/Mellencampy. This album is by no means a complete gathering of their greatest tunes. It leaves out at least two songs ("Living In Sin" and "Born To Be My Baby") and instead fills those holes with the dismal "Prayer '94," the forgettable "Always" and the harbinger of things to come, "Someday I'll Be Saturday Night." "Someday" is actually a very good modern roots rocker, but people don't buy greatest hits albums for the new songs. People buy this album for songs like the original "Livin' on a Prayer," "Wanted Dead Or Alive," "Bad Medicine," and "I'll Be There For You."

Lesser known tunes from their earliest offerings(particularly "Runaway") signal the beginnings of a great band to come. Later songs such as "Keep The Faith" and "Bed Of Roses" reveal a band in rock decline and quickly headed for the adult contemporary sound. In short, "Crossroad" gives the listener a pretty good take on how a band from Jersey made it big, leveled off, then headed for the sweet and steady success of light rock. Just to shake things up a bit, "Blaze Of Glory" from Jon Bon Jovi's solo "Young Guns II" project is included. Sadly, we do not get a sample from any of Richie Sambora's solo works. He really is a much better guitarist than he's given credit for, and it would have been nice for one of his tunes to be included in this collection.

I grew up during Bon Jovi's prime, and am proud to say that I own original cassette copies of "Slippery When Wet" and "New Jersey." Although they weren't my favorite hair/glam/hard rock band (that was Def Leppard), they were still one of the best around at the time. Bon Jovi is no longer the band they once were, but for people who want to know where they came from, this is the album to pick up.

Friends, when I die, at an absolute minimum, please pack among my provisions for the journey, the following tracks from this album: HOUR ONE, 321.

Their best in 20 years.......2007-07-13

The Scorpions have joined Iron Maiden as 2 of the old groups to put forth a great effort on their latest release. I haven't been this impressed with a Scorpions cd since the mid to late 80's. Klaus' voice sounds incredible, and the lyrics and music are top notch. There is a reason why people are still buying this music, because todays rock bands have forgotten about the guitar as a fundamental instrument. If you're a fan of the Scorpions, you won't be disappointed.

Humanity Hour : 4.5/5

The Cross : 3.5/5
Humanity : 5/5

This is a GREAT album.......2007-07-11

This is the best Scorpions Album since Love Drive. I have been listening to the Scorps since they were "THE" underground band when I was in high school. So I go back to Virgin Killers and before. This Album is GREAT. To those talking about the Scorps losing their "sting" you can't expect 55 + year olds to write an album of anger like their old stuff. This album shows a mature group of successful musicians doing what they do best. That is writing songs with great melody and believe me, when they need to get heavy they do. I cannot stop listening to this opus. One song is catchier than the next. Klaus sounds unreal and Mathias lets it rip when he needs too..... Buy this CD as you will not be sorry.... ALBUM OF THE YEAR HANDS DOWN...... Desmond Child is a RICH Man for a reason..... The songs, playing and production are all top shelf.

Humanity-Hour 1.......2007-07-11

Scorpions did it again. Great CD, we can't stop listening to the songs, especially the song Humamity.

Slippery When Wet transformed Bon Jovi from minor-league poodle rockers to global superstars on the back of hit singles "You Give Love a Bad Name," "Never Say Goodbye," and, of course, "Living on a Prayer." From the scantily clad car-wash girls on the inner sleeve to the "You lost more than that in my back seat / Yeah!" lyrics, the album is blissfully untouched by irony and subtlety, which actually adds to its charm. With guitarist Richie Sambora and songwriter Desmond Child, Jon Bon Jovi has produced a slew of consistently memorable tunes, and this album contains its fair share of them. Slippery When Wet won't change your world, but it will, undoubtedly, rock it. --Ronita Dutta

Changed my life...seriously.......2007-05-10

Everyone has that one album that they can credit with changing the way they listened to music. Some are fortunate enough to have experienced this great awakening to Are You Experienced or The Doors. For others it was London Calling, Ramones, or even Black Sabbath. For me it was Slippery When Wet. That's right, Bon Jovi changed my life. I realize on some level that I should probably be embarrassed about that little fact, but the truth is I love this album every bit as much now as I did two decades ago.

I still remember like it was yesterday. I was 11 at the time, and didn't really care about music one way or another. I did however think that Transformers were quite awesome, but I digress. I was flipping channels and came across the video for Livin' on a Prayer. I wish I could accurately describe the impact that silly, you and me against the world love song had on me. It was like all of the tumblers of a combination lock sliding into place inside my head. I knew I had to hear more, but that wasn't going to be easy. My mama didn't dance and my daddy didn't rock & roll, so to speak, so I had to track down the cassette through a friend. If Livin' on a Prayer grabbed my interest, You Give Love a Bad Name and Wanted Dead or Alive sealed the deal. After that I moved on to Poison, Europe, Stryper, and dozens of other hairspray laden bands that I naively thought of as "metal", but Bon Jovi was the first.

I sometimes wonder if I would have reacted the same way to any other album. Somehow I doubt it. Bon Jovi was at the top of their game with this album. You could argue that their follow-up album New Jersey is the band's best, but I'll put the songs on Slippery When Wet up against that Bad Medicine stuff any day! With Slippery When Wet, Bon Jovi built on the sound they developed with their two previous efforts and added hitmakers like Desmond Child to take the songwriting to a whole new level. I can hear you snickering at the thought of You Give Love a Bad Name and Never Say Goodbye as examples of quality songwriting, but it's hard to argue with the results. I believe that the lessons Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora learned while recording this album are a big reason why they are still big stars to this day, when so many of their peers have been relegated to the bar & grill circuit.

Slippery When Wet was the perfect fusion of Bruce Springsteen's American rock & roll, Van Halen's party rock image, and an impeccable pop sensibility. It didn't hurt that Jon and the boys were easy on the eyes and could represent the new face of "metal" in a totally unthreatening way. I can't help but wonder how many other kids made their way to Iron Maiden and Metallica by first discovering a band like Bon Jovi.

Say what you will about this era or this style of music. I firmly believe that Slippery When Wet is a great example of rock & roll in the 80's, and it will always have a special place in my heart.

NOTE: Slippery When Wet was reissued in 1998 with digitally remastered sound. Serious collectors may also want to check out the import version with the original cover art that the band nixed, not because of the racy image, but because of the pink border. Go figure.

Bon Jovi Album- Slippery When Wet.......2007-05-09

I grew up in the 80's and this was one of my favorite bands. I recently purchased the remastered CD from Amazon. The CD arrived quickly and in good shape. I was very pleased with the service and the prompt delivery. The album is every bit as good as I remember from my youth. Now my son is hooked on Bon Jovi as well!

Bring back the high school memories.......2007-03-30

I had this on tape when it came out in the 80's and have been meaning to purchase it on CD for quite some time. This CD brings back so many high school memories.

cheesy hair music at its cheesiest.......2007-02-19

I loved this album. It came out when I was about 12. I guess that's the only time I could enjoy the album.
Bon Jovi seems incapable of writing lyrics that amount to anything other than a string of cliches.
This album can really only be appreciated by those of us who were young when it was popular.

First of all, hats off to Bon Jovi for trying something different with This Left Feels Right--a selective collection of their most popular songs with a twist. That twist isn't a purely acoustic reworking, MTV unplugged style--anybody looking for that experience will be sorely disappointed by what's on offer. What Bon Jovi have done is re-record these songs in a completely different way while maintaining the original lyrics, melody and song structure. What's different then? Well, quite a bit actually. Check out the almost trip-hop beat and distorted vocal of "Wanted Dead or Alive", or the lazy soul of "Livin' on a Prayer". "It's My Life" is a beautiful piano-only standout, almost worth having the whole album for.

The tracklisting isn't perfect, concentrating largely on their 1980s period (there's nothing from These Days, for instance). As such, the venture works as an effective cheese-extraction exercise, keeping the elements that made the originals so great, but removing shouty, hairspray-fuelled "whoa-yeahs". What we get is something that is closer to Jon Bon Jovi's last solo offering--the criminally underrated Destination Anyway. It doesn't always work ("Bed of Roses" just sounds like a warbling cover of the powerful original and by the time they reach "Always" it's obvious they've run out of new twists), and no doubt there will be legions of bemulleted faithfuls who will denounce this as blasphemy of the highest order. Sure, it's probably just record-company filler, but it's a worthwhile investment and you won't be embarrassed to have it on when your mates come round. --Cortman Virtue

The point?.......2007-06-28

So let me get this straight...all of Bon Jovi's hits were gathered together, chopped up, and destroyed to produce this piece of trash? How about an ACTUAL greatest hits album?

Disapointed.......2007-06-25

I did not like any of the songs on this album. It really only ranks 1 star, but I'll give a point for trying something new.

"This left feels right" sounds like it was done by a high school cover band trying to be artistic. Ranks WAY below Tesla (see "Five man acoustical jam" for those of you younger then 30).

I am a Bon Jovi fan and bought this without reservation. I suggest you sample the songs before you buy.

Love it........2007-05-09

I love this album. I also love the original songs. Sometimes you feel like a nut; sometimes you don't. For those who are gasping at the supposed blasphemy of messing with classics, well, if this is all they have to worry about, their lives must be pretty good and I'm happy for them. As for me, I'm impressed that Bon Jovi took a bit of a risk. I think it worked out nicely. I'd happily buy more of this style from them.

What a let down!!!!.......2007-03-22

I was SO disappointed when I listened to this CD! It's a remix of the songs. They are done acousticly and it is not worth buying. I love Bon Jovi, but this was a HUGE disappointment! I am not happy with this CD at all.

Jon Bon Jovi & Sons songs from the "Funeral Parlor".......2007-02-25

Wow, it does pain me to knock on Bon Jovi, I love New Jersey, Slippery, Keep The Faith, Cross Road, Crash and Have a Nice Day. All albums are uplifting and cheerful and all contain a handful of raise-your-fist-in-the-air anthems. I loved all these songs the first time around. Now all the songs, and the album as a whole, has this morbid, undertaking tone to it, as if Johnny Cash was their inspiration behind re-recording their greatest hits stripped down. The low point is It's My Life, the original is such an upbeat and uplifting anthem, that listening to this version makes me want to drive my car off a cliff, it's that big of a downer! This album is reminiscent of John Mellencamp's Rough Harvest cd, where Mellencamp re-records some hits and album tracks with a more raw, earthy feel to them, but to both artists why? My mother has always stated that she wants Bon Jovi's music to be played at her wake as she loves the band and is in my eyes Bon Jovi's biggest fan. Bon Jovi put out an appropriately themed album to all those fans hoping to have Bon Jovi played at their wake/funeral.

While many of their peers were abandoning '70s metal and arena rock to hop the punk/new wave bandwagon, Def Leppard smartly stripped the earlier era's music of its excesses, bolstered it with energetic, pop-savvy hooks and quickly found itself the vanguard of the UK's new metal revival and one of the '80s most spectacularly successful rock acts. The first disc of this 35-track, two-and-a-half hour double-disc retrospective focuses on the familiar hits of their early MTV, platinum-selling prime, though the inclusion of the video edit/remixes of "Pour Some Sugar On Me" and "Rocket" attempts to cast them in a more club-friendly contemporary groove. But the grittier second disc showcases some of the early, overlooked roots of On Through the Night and High 'N' Dry, as well as underappreciated later gems like '99's "Promises" and a power-pop-perfect take on Badfinger's "No Matter What" from an upcoming covers project. --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews:

Should have been five stars, but wasn't..........2007-07-07

The concept was correct: Use of a full two CD's to represent all the great songs the band has produced. However, the selection was incorrect. There is too much emphasis on obscure tracks like "Paper Sun"? and "Waterloo...". But perhaps the most glaring faux pas, is that the albums "High and Dry" and "Pyromania" are under represented. Where is "Action...Not Words" and "Stagefright" or "You've got me Runnin'" and "Lady Strange". Also, "Die Hard the Hunter" is likely the ONLY weak song from "Pyro" and they choose it? Nonsense... Once they release Pyro and High n' Dry in a remaster, those are the two to get after Hysteria.

Absolute must have for Def Leppard fans.......2007-06-19

This 2-disc collection rules. It's got all the hits and more. The songs are put in a good order on both discs. Great summary of Def Leppard's music. The fan gets well over 2 hours of Def Leppard for his/her money. Great value! Get it.

Is There Such A Thing As Too Much Def Leppard?.......2007-03-25

This is far better retrospective than the old one disc set, The Valut. That being said, I think the casual listener may find this collection to be too much Def Leppard. The first disc is fairly solid disc filled with radio hits and popular album favorites, with only maybe one or two questionable tracks. The second disc is highly indulgent with newer material that only a hardcore fan who continued to follow the band through less popular albums like Slang, X, etc. will know. If you haven't bought a Leppard album in the past decade, you won't know a lot of this disc. Overall, a very thorough set, but the passive fan may opt for the one disc import only version, Best of Def Leppard. Its not complete, but its got more than The Vault without the filler of ROCK OF AGES.

Brilliant!.......2007-03-10

I was NOT disappointed with my purchase here. There's a great selection of songs on here, showcasing the band's changing image over time. If there are particular songs that you like that aren't in this collection, I'd suggest you download them, or get them elsewhere, but definitely get this CD for the absolute best of Def Leppard. It contains great liner notes on each song, with input from each of the band members, something I particularly enjoyed. Getting these liner notes helped me understand a lot more about where the band was coming from on each song and what it truly meant to them to be writing and recording it. With this input on their take on lyrics and such, I daresay I understood the songs themselves better. It also includes pictures of the band over time, including Steve Clark (R.I.P.). Overall: Perfect for fans and those simply looking to get the best of this phenomenal band.

The greatest CD EVER!!!.......2007-02-18

This CD is amazing. It totally brings me back to my high school years. It's perfect. What more can I say.

Average customer rating: Totally Poisonous! still rocking 20 years on Poison plays some great classic tunes. Aint Nothin' But a Good Time ... party on. Awesome!!

Customer Reviews:

Totally Poisonous!.......2007-07-16

There may be a pretty good reason why 80's rock bands revives old good songs, and pretty much I can say Poison delivers an impressive performance into doing it. The songs "I Never Cry, Just What I needed, Dead Flowers, Little Willy and Were an American Band" are among the best. The rest were also nicely performed but somehow, not the best selection of songs to be revived. If you're a POISON fan, this CD is recommended.

still rocking 20 years on.......2007-07-08

I am a huge poison fan and loved this cover album shortly after its release they played a show near me and i saw them perform more than half of the covers my favorite is Alice coopers I never cry! am must for fans

Poison plays some great classic tunes........2007-07-05

Poison is one of my favorite band to come out of the 80's.

When i heard they had a new album out i knew i just had to get it and i wasn't let down at all as it's a good album.

"Little Willy"
This song was originally done by Sweet. This song shows off the glam side of Poison very well and is a nice cover song.

"Suffragette City"
This song was originally done by David Bowie. Poison's version of the song is just as good as the original that I remember. The chorus leaps out at you, and C.C. Deville's guitar playing gives this classic a new twist.

"I Never Cry"
This song was originally done by Alice Cooper. I had always loved the Alice Cooper classic. Bret Michaels delivers a stunning performance that does the original justice. Also the guitar solo is truly amazing although it's a bit short.

"I Need To Know"
This song was originally done by Tom Petty. The peppy groove on this song really gets things moving with C.C. Deville's guitar changes, and Rikki Rocket's cool drum playing.

"Can't You See?"
This song was originally done by The Marshall Tucker Band. Bret sings with passion and conviction, Poison really make this song their own. The melodic guitar changes in this tune are very well done.

"What I Like About You"
This song was originally done by The Romantics. I had the chance to see them perform this song live and it's just as good live as on the album. It's a fun song and fits well with the type of music that Poison does.

"Dead Flowers"
This song was originally done by The Rolling Stones. This song is a fine cover and I like this version a bit better. It has fine guitar playing throughout.

"Just What I Needed"
This song was originally done by The Cars. Poison does the song well but nothing can really touch the original classic hit.

"Rock `N Roll All Night"
This song was originally done by KISS. Let me tell you there's a reason you'll never hear Poison play this song in concert. This has got to be the worst cover song ever! I thought nothing could have been worse that Aerosmith's cover of the Spider-Man them song well I found a song worse and this is it. If you're gonna cover this song please cover the original and not the live version, maybe poison felt that the original version was too hard to play. They even changed some of the lyrics also a no no. avoid this song at all costs.

"Squeeze Box"
This song was originally done by The Who. I like poison's version better than The Who's version. I'm not really sure what makes it better maybe it's that the song sound like it could have been a Poison song.

"You Don't Mess Around With Jim"
This song was originally done by Jim Croce. I really like the original version a lot but I find the Poison version to be a bit better. This version does the original song justice improving on an already great classic song.

"Your Mama Don't Dance"
This song was originally done by Loggins and Messina. Poison gives this song a new pop twist. They know how to have a good time and it shows in this song. This version passes the original in every way. This is a great song that they play in all their shows and the crowd really like it, I know I did when I saw then in concert. They had the whole place jumpin' with this song.

"We're An American Band"
This song was originally done by Grand Funk Railroad. Poison decided to end the CD with a song that sums up what they're all about. This is a great version of the classic song and is a great way to close out the album.

I am a big fan of classic rock and this album does classic rock justice except for 1 song that I will not mention here.

This is a fun album by a fun band, so if you like fun rock music or if you're a fan of Poison then this album is for you.

If you get the chance to see Poison live then I suggest you go if you can as you will have a fun time at their show also.

Aint Nothin' But a Good Time ... party on........2007-07-03

If you're a die hard POISON fan, then add a star. If not, then you'll probably downgrade this by at least 2 stars.

I suspect that the people who say they listen to POISON albums for the music are like the ones who claim they read PLAYBOY Magazine for the articles. POISON was like a frat-party version of MOTLEY CRUE (or maybe MOTLEY CRUE were a tough backstreet-kid version of POISON). In any case, MOTLEY CRUE were dangerous and thrilling, while POSION was fun ... and they still are.

Here's a collection of songs that POISON performs in concert. Like nearly every other album they've released, it's just party music. THE KINKS said 'it's only jukebox music', and THE ROLLING STONES said 'it's only rock and roll ... but I like it.'

POISON was a lot like 1970's KISS re-done for the 1980's. KISS had sci-fi suits and face-paint, POISON had outrageous hair and androgyny. Both were slammed by critics, but won legions of fans who could care less what snooty idiots at 'Rolling Stone' or other magazines thought. Most of the critics are gone and forgotten, but the bands (POISON, KISS, and MOTLEY CRUE for that matter) are still filling venues and selling music.

The best cuts are the glam/punk & trash-rock songs:

* Little Willy (originally performed by Sweet)
* Suffragette City (originally performed by David Bowie)
* I Never Cry (originally performed by Alice Cooper)
* What I Like About You (originally performed by The Romantics)
* Just What I Needed (originally performed by The Cars)
* You Don't Mess Around With Jim (originally performed by Jim Croce)

The others are a mixed bag. 'I Need to Know' (originally performed by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers) lacks the nuances that made it a favorite song for fans. the KISS song 'Rock and Roll All Night - (and party every day)' falls a bit short on this CD -- works OK in concert though.

'Dead Flowers' (originally performed by The Rolling Stones) is a total flop here. If anyone needs to cover a STONES' song from the late 1960's or early 1970's, they either need to call on Johnny Winter (listen to his versions of Jumping Jack Flash) , or get Keith Richards to play the guitar parts, it seems.

On CD, 'We're An American Band' lacks the urgency and punch that have sustained the original version, but again, it works well in concert.

So put this in your CD, MP3 or iTunes player, and head on up to Sturgis in August -- ain't nothin' but a good time.

Awesome!!.......2007-06-17

This is a simply terrific CD by a terrific band! They have been rocking for over 20 years now and show no signs of slowing down, thank God! Poison is one of the few(only?)bands to survive Grunge Rock's hair band massacre of the early 90's. Yes, this isn't original material, but it's extremely WELL DONE cover material and I highly recommend it!

One Wild Night? Well, that's not strictly true, as this live album was recorded at Bon Jovi concerts spanning three decades. But why be pedantic when the result is a live album that effectively doubles as a greatest-hits collection? Bon Jovi's songs are tailor-made for stadiums and arenas, and, from classic fist-in-the-air rockers ("Livin' on a Prayer," "Bad Medicine," "You Give Love a Bad Name," "Runaway") to lighters-in-the-air numbers ("Keep the Faith," "Wanted Dead or Alive," "Something to Believe In"), the choices are suitably larger than life. The career-reviving single "It's My Life" sounds right at home, as do great covers of Neil Young's "Rockin' in the Free World" (recorded, appropriately enough, in Johannesburg in 1995) and the Boomtown Rats' "I Don't Like Mondays" (performed with Sir Bob Geldof). --Robert Burrow

Live Concert Versions of Bon Jovi's Greatest Hits.......2007-01-19

"One Wild Night: Live 1985-2001" by Bon Jovi, Is a compilation of Bon Jovi's best songs, performed at various concert events from 1985 to 2001. For Bon Jovi fans, it's classic Bob Jovi and a Must Have! If you like music recorded from "Live" performances, You will love this album! If you prefer "Studio-Cut" versions, you may not like this album because it has the sound and feel of a live concert.

zero stars.......2005-11-13

One WEAK night!...zero stars if that was available. I never realized Bon Jovi was this bad a live band. They obviously get a LOT of production help in the studio because this album (several different concerts in several different venues) is ALL bad. Sorry for them and sorry for me for buying it.

Bon Jovi rocks.......2005-08-09

I found this CD to be extemely uplifting, great music to listen to while driving.

not a greatest hits album.......2005-05-14

This is not Bon Jovi's greatest hits, and that's the only bad thing that anyone who likes Bon Jovi can say about this. It's a fun collection of some live great live performances. Bon Jovi is great in concert, interacting with the crowd, and building up the energy and fun. You can hear that the audience and performers had a great time. If you like Bon Jovi, then this is certainly worth the money!

To have resisted Def Leppard's radio power in their heyday, you'd have to have been a critic--and even some of us could hardly argue with the likes of "Photograph," "Animal," and "Bringin' on the Heartbreak." Vault covers a decade and a half of hits by the one-time wonder boys of the new wave of British metal, but perhaps inevitably concentrates on singles from the multiplatinum Pyromania and Hysteria. It offers little meaning beyond fun fun fun, but there are hooks here that Noel Gallagher would punch a paparazzo for. --Rickey Wright

Customer Reviews:

Excellent retrospective.......2007-05-23

This is a great CD. Every home should have one as it contains a slew of hits. It covers their entire over produced era and sure, it rather ineligently sidesteps their first two albums except for a remake of Bringin' on the Heartbreak, but for the casual fan this collection is probably the bees knees. It's the perfect catch all release for radio listeners who just want the hits and a couple of other tunes.

And there isn't really a lot of complaints to be made about the track listing. If your a death metal fan you won't find much joy here but for a fan of melodic hard rock and the super smooth production values these dudes were known for then this is a must buy.

The only things that may reduce your desire for this album would be a) you already own this stuff. B) there is precious little from their first two slabs - no Wasted or Hello America. If you fall into the (a) category then try to chase down the edition with a 2nd disc with 9 live tracks on it. Given Joe Elliots going on record as disliking live albums these 9 tracks may be the closest you'll ever get to a live album from this band, excluding bootlegs.

All up a great round up of the years 1980 - 1995 and highly recommended.

Turn It Up!.......2007-05-13

Def Leppard rocks! All of the songs on this cd are past hits that will have you rocking all night long.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.......2007-04-22

Why is this band still not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Can someone please explain this one to me. They deserve to be inducted much more than some other groups the nobody has even heard of.

LOVE this CD.......2007-04-04

This is my second copy of this one. I wore the other one out. I loved it when it came out and I love it now. It'll get you moving.

This is a great compilation, and I recommend this for all Def Leppard fans.

Thanks to Slippery When Wet, Bon Jovi procured the sort of world domination dreamt of by demented European dictators and Bond villains--at which point the band decided that they didn't really want to rule the planet. Though New Jersey contains several Jovi stadium anthems, including the single "Bad Medicine," and though the album's videos showed that the intricately layered and feathered coiffures were intact, this is where Bon Jovi began changing. The title offers a broad hint as to what Jon Bon Jovi in particular was trying to change into: short of renaming the album I Come from the Same Place as Bruce Springsteen, he could scarcely have been more obvious about his intentions. "Living in Sin," indeed, takes Bon Jovi's increasing obsession with Springsteen to the verge of pastiche. --Andrew Mueller

BON JOVI'S NEW JERSEY IS A GREAT FOLLOW-UP TO SLIPPERY WHEN WET........2007-02-09

My fellow readers and reviewers, I will be writing a review on the legendary album simply entitled "NEW JERSEY" by one of Rock's greatest bands and one of America's favorite sons. I give you one of New Jersey's pride and joy's, the one and only BON JOVI. "NEW JERSEY" was originally released in 1988 on Compact Disc on the Mercury Records label in association with PolyGram Records. As always, if I hear any new additional information concerning this legendary album or the artist, I will edit this review immediately so that you the consumer will get the best informative and most accurate review possible.

At this point in the band's career, BON JOVI was hot and on fire. Due to the extreme success of their legendary 1986 masterpiece album "SLIPPERY WHEN WET," BON JOVI were now enjoying the fruits of their newfound well deserved fame and fortune. The band's sold out World Tour was legendary and women would flock from everywhere around the globe to get a glimpse of them. But BON JOVI were not about to sit on their fame and fortune alone and rest on their laurels. It would now be time for BON JOVI, or should I say keyboardist David Bryan, guitarist Richie Sambora, bassist Alec John Such, drummer Tico "The Hit Man" Torres and lead singer and frontman Jon Bon Jovi to head back into the recording studio and record the follow-up to their extremely successful album "SLIPPERY WHEN WET." The question on everyone's mind was could BON JOVI record a better album than "SLIPPERY WHEN WET?" It wouldn't be long before we got our answer. BON JOVI would complete and hand in to Mercury Records an album which bares the name of their home state, "NEW JERSEY." In my opinion, "NEW JERSEY" is a well recorded follow-up to "SLIPPERY WHEN WET" and does contain some fine moments on it which compares to that of "SLIPPERY WHEN WET." "NEW JERSEY" really kicks a*s in more ways than one.

In "NEW JERSEY," BON JOVI'S Rock n' Roll sound has really matured with age and it really shows with their own special blend of magic with Rocker's such as "Lay Your Hands On Me," "Bad Medicine," "Born To Be My Baby," "Blood On Blood," "Homebound Train," "Wild Is The Wind" and "99 In The Shade." Richie Sambora really plays guitar in these Rocker's at a different level that no one ever imagined he could play at. Jon Bon Jovi sings these Rockers very effectively with such craft and skill that he almost sounds like another fellow New Jersey native, Bruce Springsteen.

Bon Jovi even show the mellower side with slow Rocker's such as "Living In Sin," the one minute and twenty four seconds long "Ride Cowboy Ride," the blistering guitar sounds of Richie's "Stick To Your Guns" and "I'll Be There For You" along with Richie's blistering acoustic only "Love For Sale" accompanied by Jon's harmonica and breathtaking lead vocals.

Overall, this is one hell of an album worth checking out.

I would like to highly recommend that everyone purchase this legendary album to own as a valuable and important part of their own personal music collection. This album will definitely stand the test of time and will always be around to be enjoyed, appreciated and cherished for many years to come, NOW AND FOREVER.

In closing, the BON JOVI saga and legend does not even come close to ending here. If anything, it is only the beginning. BON JOVI would move on to better green pastures and record more fine albums better than ever. BON JOVI would have more tales and stories that would need to be conquered and told in order to add more chapter's to their storied career. But that, my fellow readers and reviewers, you will have to stay tuned and read more about at a later date. So here's to you Richie, Jon, Tico, David and Alec. And as the saying goes, "AND THE REST IS ROCK N ROLL HISTORY," am I wrong? Thanks for reading my review and I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it for your reading pleasure. I also hope that you will read all of my other reviews in the near future when time permits. BON JOVI RULES. Long Live Rock n' Roll. Rock out always and take it easy. Forever In Rock, John L.

One of the Last Glorious Moment of 80s' Rock.......2007-01-26

Bon Jovi is one of the few 80s' rock bands that can survive commercialy even to this day. Their third and previous album SLIPPERY WHEN WET became super hit, with two #1 hits YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME and LIVING ON A PRAYER. 1988 follow up NEW JERSEY became more solid and vivid than the predecessor well balanced in pop and wild appeal of the band.

LAY YOUR HANDS ON ME and BAD MEDICINE both became huge hits from the album but other tracks shine in its own right. Particularly I like fifth track BLOOD ON BLOOD and fast-paced track 99 IN THE SHADE which keep our adrenalin running.

Verdict: One of their finest efforts and one of the best late 80s rock albums.
Rating: 96 out of 100
Recommended for: 80s rock fans and wide range of pop rock fans.
