No, this is just recomending someone 5 albums so they can hear them andpossibly like them. I would never give 7800 to a person who only knew prayer and it's my life. That probably would turn them off.

Although, if I was recomending some of my friends a Bon jovi album, I would probably choose

Crossroads
Crush
Bounce
HAND
The Cirlce (was debating this album, as I haven't heard it yet.. Probably a better choice than lost highway for mainstream music fans)

Simply because most of them listen to mainstream, and that's about as mainstream as your gunna get when it comes to jovi. But if someone actually appreciated music, I would go with wrath manias exact list. **** slippery. Good starter record with good hits, but that's about it for that album.,easily the worst album of the 80s for me.
