They are able to do it, they just don't want to.
Also, their music today is also soulless and forgettable...That is the difference between past Bon Jovi and current Bon Jovi. The 80s records may have been cheesey but they were honest and they had heart.

Totally agree with you.
But still, my opinion is that we shouldn't expect "These Days direction" for it was the only one "different" album of a dozen (half a dozen at the time).
