Unsung Hero
This album perhaps won't be to everyone's taste, however every Bon Jovi fan should check this out, if only to hear the excellent In These Arms (vocal version). The powerful emotion that David Bryan evokes in his version of the song he co-wrote with Jon and Richie is immense, and David proves he is a competent singer as well as one of the best pianists of the last 20 years.. The rest of the tracks don't feature any vocals, but are surprisingly very listenable, with some excellent key work on show.
This album deserves a lot of recognition, more than it has had. Hopefully Dave will be releasing more in the near future.
Rating: 8/10
