God knows I'm not into Westerns but to me the lyrics in BoG are much more meaningful and easier to relate to than those of DA (most of, anyway).

I understand and respect your point totally ... even if for me DA does it more for me than BOR O think that jon was praised for BOG way more than for DA because it was certainly way more worked and finished album

Or because he was more popular at the time.

Salaam Aleikum,

Yep totaly differrent
- Richie's cd's are amazing (can't wait for the next one) but there is no ground ro compare it with DA

DA is an intresting cd- it has it's good songs- and some less-it took me some time to 'get' some of the songs, but all and all- I'm glad it's there. Some of the demo's are good too...

About Santa Fe- it's simply a divine song

I found Blaze in NYC when I was on a trip to the US couple of monthes ago. I went into H&M , saw they were selling out- asked about Bon Jovi cd's- but the guy that worked there said: "well the good ones go first"...
I was browsing along the half empty aisels, suddenly I spotted Blaze- I took it, and I debated for a while (imagine that) if I should get it- cause at that point I mainly knew Blaze and Santa Fe- I decided to get it (thank G-D) and when I went to pay- the owner of the store was standing there- so I asked if there's any chance he had more BJ cd's- he said not- but he commented that he's glad to see I at least found Blaze - and then he says- Yeah Bon Jovi- great guy, wonderful guy
that made my day...
besided learning later on that Elton John (another favorite of mine) is on that cd, what could be better

I think Blood Money was performed at a Xmas show in the Count Basie Theatre in the early 90s, it was only Jon and his guitar, though...

Blood Money was regularly played on the KTF tour.
