Core-a-core

This album is salvageable. In the sense: some tracks are very good, others are truly avoidable. There was still something back in the days of These Days. But those were the last remnants of the BJ sound understood in a "classic" sense. For me, their discography ends here.

I like them quite a bit. A type of genre that I don't love but is interpreted objectively well. Okay, the review.

You are the embodiment of imprecision, and I can only redefine you as ignorant. Starting with that political hint... back then it was R. Reagan showing the way to rockers, certainly not Bush. The fact that the BJ followed that kind of advice doesn’t change the fact that the band produced top-notch radio-friendly rock and roll. Not everyone has to sound like Genesis or The Doors. And honestly, what do I care if those who write on DeBaser think the BJ are terrible? For me, that confirms nothing; rather, it makes me think that there are many people who judge the band’s appearance rather than the music. Which can be unappealing, make no mistake, but has achieved objective milestones. For me too, there’s trashy genres where some bands objectively shine. In any case, your discourse is the classic blanket made of ridiculousness and… thankfully, we don’t know each other.

I couldn't care less about the opinions of an ignorant sub-species like you... you talk about later albums and mention Bounce and all the latest ones, forgetting that after this album there were, in order, Slippery When Wet, New Jersey, and Keep The Faith... shut up, ignorant, and only speak when you know what you’re talking about. I, who have truly listened to Bon Jovi, like all the bands I comment on, am attached to this period of the band. So? What's the problem? The problem is that a lot of people here are writing who don't know shit about what they're talking about. Am I losing it? Yes, because ignorance has become a pain in the ass.

I like good music; Bon Jovi have 3 great rock albums under their belt. I like prejudices less. >>And even less do I like people who have prejudices.

I must admit that this is an excellent review. Yesterday I wasn't focused, that's why I'm raising the score. Sorry!

You're doing everything yourself, hiver. I've never talked about reviews, saggio. And anyway, a review doesn't have to be exhaustive, but generally, it doesn't say bullshit.

Then on this site it seems that every album is "seminal"... at least start coming up with synonyms... there have been times I really enjoyed your reviews, but this time I just can't.

Boring and ineffective even if well written.

In this case, for me, it’s not shareable. I'm not saying we need to praise them, I’m just saying that for me the band is portrayed in a rather crude way. Not agreeing with this, I can only keep my head down unfortunately, because you wrote very well. I don't find the contents realistic.
