Hey guys,
I was just curious does anyone have Jon's "Power Station Years 1980-1983"c.d.?I just got it, it's on amazon.com it goes John Bongiovi I've listened to it twice so far.It doesn't sound like our Jon I guess for me because he wqas so young when he made the album.I like it I was just curious if anyone else had it and,what they thought of it thanks guys!!
Hugs,
Jon's Winter Kitten

I got one version. I rarely play it. It has some touch of great music and what's to come. There's so much Sprinsteen influence in it

I do have it. Listened to it a few times after I bought it and never again. It was sort of promising for a young singer, I guess, but not that special. A curiosity.

There's different versions of it aren't there? I've got one of them ... it's been mostly collecting dust for a couple years, but I've recently listened to some of the songs off it, and some of it seems pretty good, although like Keeper said, not that special

I've got two versions. I haven't listened to it for years. It's ok, again, nothing special. There's a couple of really good tracks if I remember right but obviously not that good.

More than we bargained for I remember being one that I really like. And there was another one but I don't remeber the name of it, I think it was anymore. anyway I've got the power stations 80-83 and the more music from the power stations. I'm not really that fond of it, I just bought them for collecting and couriosity. But they're not bad, they're just, meh.
