Price Of Love is a kickass track-my fave pre-Slippery track. I was surprised to find out that they've never done it live before.

Yeah To The Fire is good, but Price Of Love is better. Great album as a whole, only exception King Of The Mountain

It's a weak album as far as I'm concerned. Very cheesy and boring in places.

I still say it's kinda bland, eventhough majority seems to disagree. It's a toss-up between These Days and New Jersey for me, I think. Those two albums are pure masterpieces!!

to the fire is better than king of the mountain but for me the problem is they sound the same chorus wise.

regarding my comments about if "BJ dont like it dont mean you dont have to"

i truly mean that - my example for this quote is Mark Knopfler hates the Brothers in Arms album - but the fans (i am not a fan by the way) think its a great album.

Have A Nice Day is the blandest album they have done. 7800 is amazing.

i think the album is cheesy in places, however there are some great tracks on the album such as king of the mountain, in & outa love and allways run to you that all i can think of the top of my head, im high at moment. however the album is dated and was rusehed at the time which i think explains the chessy'ns of the record.

I don't think HAND is bland.

Oh! Oh! That rhymes.

Default about 7800
I love that album, too.

I bought my copy of it back in 87 in the aftermath of SWW. For a long period of time it was actually my favorite BJ-album. Songs like Price of Love or I&OOL are genuine classics and itīs a real pity we donīt get to hear these songs live nowadays. And I agree, Jonīs voice is just fantastic on this album.

Of course there are no radio-friendly pop-rock-hits with big wah-wah-choruses on Fahrenheit, but personally I divide Bon Jovi into 2 eras: the time before Desmond Child and the time they have been working with him. I like both options but I believe we all agree that they never sounded the same anymore after they had sat down with Desmond...

With best wishes,
Sami
