This is an album I learned to appreciate more later on... I was hoping to hear Blaze Of Glory Part 2 and was a little taken back by the first few listens... All those added effects and lower vocals were not something I was used to hearing by JBJ. I think the album was ahead of it's time and might have had greater U.S. success a few years later.

The live performances helped a lot too... They became more rock songs and less pop-ish. Jon also performed a lot of those songs acoustically too which also gave them another life...

Every Word was the song I gravitated more towards because it was the most Bon Jovi esq song on the album. I hope we get a Special Edition one day with some unreleased tracks from the era.
