Album Notes Bon Jovi: Jon Bon Jovi (vocals, harmonica, percussion); Richie Sambora (acoustic & electric guitars, electric sitar, background vocals); David Bryan (keyboards, background vocals); Tico Torres (drums, percussion).Additional personnel: Suzie Katayama (accordion); Jerry Vivino (tenor saxophone); Ed Manion (baritone saxophone); Mark Pender (trumpet); Richie LaBamba (trombone); Robbie Buchanan (keyboards, programming); Jerry Cohen (keyboards); Hugh McDonald, Randy Jackson (bass); Tommy Funderburk, Rory Dodd (background vocals).Producers: Peter Collins, Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora.Digitally remastered using 20-bit technology by George Marino (1998, Sterling Sound, New York, New York).Riding a resurgence in popularity with the triple-platinum success of their greatest-hits package CROSSROADS, Bon Jovi returns with THESE DAYS, their first studio album since 1992's KEEP THE FAITH. And it's obvious that the alterna-rock nihilism exhibited by many of their more angst-ridden peers has affected the band's material, giving the blue-collar romanticism of the Jersey rockers a darker vibe.Jon Bon Jovi's characters on THESE DAYS weigh in with more mature and darker conflicts than those explored on previous albums. On "Hey God," a family man on the brink of homelessness cries out for spiritual guidance. The title track goes a step further, describing the sheer hopelessness that goes with not having a place to live. Other characters who've lost their way are either on quests of faith ("Something To Believe In") or have found other altars to worship at ("Something For The Pain").Along with heightened lyrical development, the group's sound continues to evolve away from the usual pop-metal fare. Jon Bon Jovi occassionally drifts into a raspy voice that is a direct nod to Bruce Springsteen, while David Bryan's keyboard playing veers from the lush orchestration of "Lie To Me" to a simpler harpsichord tone in "If That's What It Takes." Still, Bon Jovi remain a guitar-driven band, and Richie Sambora's muscular style has expanded to include some tasty electric-sitar playing.Though Jon Bon Jovi's sunny optimism is tempered by the murkier subject matter, he still closes THESE DAYS with "Diamond Ring," a gentle matrimonial proposal that shows this Jersey boy is still a romantic at heart.

Reviews  super sexy bon jovi!Review created: 06/04/08 by:  1 of 1 people found this review helpful. Firstly that comment made in the other review is a pile of poop! This album is far from a disapointment. This has to be one of my favourite albums if not my favourite. I know with some cds I skip through a few songs that aren't so good but with this cd I listen from start to finish. If you love Bon Jovi you'll love this album.

I mean I haven't listened to a bon jovi cd sincekeep the faith as i most of the rubbish they produced that hit the charts over the last few years didn't entice me - but as it was cheap i bought it for a try. bad bad bad move, they obviously got too old and lost any energy they had in the early 90's Review ID: 10000000003094707 Was this review helpful? Report this review The Joy of JoviReview created: 01/07/06 by: 1 of 1 people found this review helpful. I bought this CD to replace my old tape version. Absolutely love the different styles that Bon Jovi have managed to come up with on this CD. There are the good classic rock tracks right along to the slower ballards that Bon Jovi seemed to do so well. If you are new to Bon Jovi songs then this is a good starter point. None of them have been overplayed on the radio so they all sound fresh. Probably a good CD to put on when you have friends round, a bit of good old fashioned rock music. Not aggresive like some ! Well worth buying if you like 80's rock. Enjoy ! Review ID: 10000000001257062 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
