Ideal producer for the upcoming new Bon Jovi album

If we're reaching for the sky, I want George Martin. The vocals he got out of Jon on How Long Has This Been Going On are stunning. He's done some other good work in his day too.

I'd like to see Butch Walker produce it.

Bob Rock for me.

I love what B.Rock done with sound of KTF but his last work with Metallica - St.Anger was really bad and I didn't see nothing spectacular in his work in last years.

Who I would choose:
Brendan O'Briean - he has great CV. He worked with some great rock bands. I would be interesting to work with him for new BJ Cd.

J.Saltzman - Hot Fuss by The Killers is one of greatest produced album in my opinion.

Pitbull - He's name is really hot now Ok. I'm just kidding.

1- Rick Rubin
2- Bob Rock
3- Brendan O'Brien

I reckon Dr Dre is a shoe in.

Definitely Brendan O'Brien for me. I love his work with Bruce and Pearl Jam.

Anyone know the story with Peter Collins? As far as I can tell he produced one of the best albums ever (TD obviously) but doesn't seem to have done a lot else.

Anyway I'd love him to do the next record, and I also think Rick Rubin could get something amazing out of the guys too. Or Toby Jepson who has said he'd make them do "another Slippery When Wet" as "that's what the fans want"!

His done lots of Prog Rock from what I know. Rush/ Yes type. I think even Dream Theater. But him and Jon had a fall-out at the end of the These Days sessions so Jon/ Richie finished off the album without him. Very very unlikely they will ever work together again.

Ah cheers-didn't know that! Any idea what they fell out about?
