A review by Alan / alans64@jovimail.com

After waiting years for a Bon Jovi album we get this: a good example of what the band is about, but not what the band is about LIVE. Great songs, faith and prayer. But when you have ever seen a live show, you can't really say that it is an excellent album. The boys picked out the worst versions recorded, I guess. Every song I heard live before, was better, heavier and with a better voice of Jon. The guitars are also thrown to the background. On live shows, the guitars are stronger and louder, much louder!!

I also missed Lay Your Hands On Me, Blood On Blood and Dry County on the album. But there is hope. Richie said in an interview that there will come more live albums, because there's so much material left. Keep on waiting!!

Rating: 7/10
