Much new stuff from Bon Jovi

[dedoralife]

Is Bon Jovi considered classic? Jeez I can’t believe the music I grew up on is already being considered as classic. In much anticipation, I’ve finally picked up their new album ‘100,000,000 Bon Jovi fans can’t be wrong’ and it sounds fantastic on my system. Some of the songs have an authentic 80s touch too. 4cds and a dvd to listen to but I could always listen to more. Has anyone else gotten a chance to hear it?

First off, welcome to our little piece of the world, dedoralife. Glad to see you here. Secondly, isn't it funny how many imitators that humongous selling Elvis title has spawned over the years?

Two big ones just recently from opposite ends of the rock spectrum in the brilliant collection by The Fall...

I think Elvis Costello even tried to cash in on the concept at one point along with a few other similarly titled collections. Doesn't anyone in rock music have an original thought anymore? :)

Welcome to Rave Recs, dedoralife. I'm not much of a Bon Jovi fan, but there's always room for discussions about anything musical here, and I bet there are some other fans that will chime in here.

Yes they can. :)

And welcome.
