Album Notes
Digitally remastered German version features a CD-ROM video of "Keep The Faith."When KEEP THE FAITH was released in 1992, it had been four years since the commercial success of NEW JERSEY. Times and tastes had changed, with bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam stealing the spotlight. KEEP THE FAITH reflects the change, as the straight-ahead, Springsteenish rock of past efforts gave way to the more adult-contemporary sound; they even cut their hair"I Believe" is a rocker about looking inward for salvation. "Keep the Faith" holds up to the band's earlier material in hard-rocking style. "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" (co-written by Desmond Child before he was "Livin' La Vida Loca") is about making every minute count. "In These Arms" is another standout track, and sounds the most like the pop material on NEW JERSEY. "Bed of Roses" is an excellent ballad featuring guitarist Richie Sambora on background vocals. The band takes a stab at a rock epic with the 10-minute "Dry County." "Little Bit of Soul" is just that--a gritty, bluesy number about not giving up. While KEEP THE FAITH is quite different from the band's early days, it shows that the Garden State rockers weren't content to be mired in a sound from 1986. Mature, good-time rock & roll.

This album is a masterpiece. There is not one bad song on the album and it really shows just why Bon Jovi are the best band in the world. The album is worth buying just for the song 'Dry County' alone, a 10 minute epic that takes Bon Jovi's music up a level which had always seemed impossible to me before.

  A classic Bon Jovi Album
Review created: 08/08/08

I am a huge Bon Jovi fan but for some reason did not get this album when it was first released. After being at their recent tour (June 2008) I manage to listen to a friend's copy of it and realised what a good album it was with a mixture of classic hits and more meaningful tracks like Dry County which I heard for the first time at the concert. It was then a case of I must have it and the rest, as they say, is history. So in conclusion a must album for any Bon Jovi fan - buy, listen and enjoy!

  Bon Jovi - Keep The Faith (2000 Remastered) CD
Review created: 11/06/08

The hotly anticipated remasters of arguably one of the greatest rock bands ever give a new era of digital clarity and make these classic rock songs sound even better when played at ear splitting volume!

It is important to remember that when this CD was first released in late 1992 that rumours were rife that the band were going their seperate ways. Richie Samboya (lead guitar) had attempted to begin a solo career with a modicum of success, and the others had also begun their own sideline interests. This can be felt in the more downplayed nature of the songs. However the musicianship on this album is what genuinely shines through. The gritty nature of the title track, combined with one of Samboya's finest solos, give this album a Springsteen-esque quality, making it thoroughly enjoyable. Interestingly enough this album contains Bon Jovi's first serious epic rock ballad, in the form of Dry County. Haunting lyrics and an extended guitar solo make this song a classic, although too long to appear on the selection of rock anthem albums and greatest hit CDs that make up the majority of Bon Jovi's current sales.

In short, a more controlled, refined album than previous offerings, focussing more on musical ability and maybe lacking some of the energy of the early years. Any Bon Jovi fan will enjoy this, and anyone with a penchant for bands like the Eagles and Bruce Springsteen won't be disappointed either.
