There's a reason why it was left out of the GH compilation and Richie being quoted saying: "Bounce wasn't much fun, but we shoved it down everyone's throats anyway..."
You are entirely right, and I do believe Bounce is the least artistically interesting and unique records they made in their pomp, BUT there are some fantastic songs on that album (and even better songs that were left off the album).
