Ten Classic Bon Jovi Albums Presented As Special Editions

I personally think the song quality drops immensly on KTF after Dry County, with the only exception being Fear there. And Blame it on the love, which puts me in a great mood from time to time The others I barely listen to. Last year I saw a Jovi coverband and for 2 minutes I went like "what the hell...which song are they playing now" - then I realized it was Little Bit of Soul. Well, if you barely listen to it you start to forget them at some point

I also think 'Keep The Faith' is a brilliant album. On the subject of the second half, the only songs I dislike are 'Woman In Love' and 'I Want You'.

I think 'Little Bit Of Soul' is a great song and it's even better on the 'Keep The Faith: An Evening With Bon Jovi' VHS where the band let loose and perform it to a terrific standard.

I'm a huge fan of KTF. I'd put it slightly below NJ, and rank it as their second best albums. Only tracks that aren't up to snuff (in my opinion) are Fear, I Want You, and somewhat If I Was Your Mother (though I've warmed up to it in recent years) I actually think Woman In Love is a really good song, and I prefer Blame It On The Love... to Sleep. As for Little Bit Of Soul, I'm actually really that that song isn't loved around here.

I think if KTF has weak tracks, which I'm not 100% sure it does then I'd take off Woman In Love and IIWYM. IIWYM is a great rock track but it's pretty weak lyrically, as is Woman In Love. If you replaced these two with Fields of Fire and Starting All Over Again, the album would be just about perfect in my opinion.

About the additional vault songs, how are they? Are you able to download them or can you just listen online?

Just ordered 7800. Will order the rest in the next few months.

I only want the live tracks in the highest quality. Still not sure wether to sell my old copies and buy the new ones.

I salute you,

Yeah right

And the pictures in the "gallery" . Image resolution is about 200x300. I really don't care about the photos, but to even mention about them in advertisements etc. is a joke. There's nothing to see (because you can't see them even if you wanted to)

Got 7800 today.

All in all, nothing to complain about. The album + good live tracks.

The images in the Vault are a nice touch, although they're very small. It's still nice, though, and I especially enjoyed looking at Richie with the McDonalds burgers.

I think having extra live tracks is great but we shouldn't have to purchase them. We've already bought the special edition, and for a lot of us, it won't be the first edition of the album we've bought (for example, original, remaster, special edition) etc.

Happy with it, overall.

Original LP release, original CD release, Japanese Remaster, and now likely the special edition since I do quite like the two new live tracks.
