Slippery When Wet: The Videos DVD
 
OK, I know it's not an official release, but somehow I managed to find it in the store I work at after I finished my shift for £5.99! I was well chuffed, the only other place I saw it was on ebay.

The picutre quality isn't brilliant and the sound is only in mono methinks so it's obviously that it was ripped from a VHS and there are no extras, but hey, I'd never watched it before and it's pretty cool. 8)

It's the DVD with the modern cover with just Jon on the front with a mic, rather than the official Slippery When Wet artwork.

Anyone else have this on DVD?

Thomas Anderson 10-16-2004 04:54 PM

I got it lately too, and agree it isn't too good quality, although even as an unofficial product they were selling it in HMV

I have that too and I love the little bits in between the videos. Especially the one where Richie is impersonating that dude from the Hunchback Of Notre Dame :lol:

Dave 1986 10-16-2004 06:58 PM

Yeah the clips between the videos are really cool and you get to see Jon play harmonica in a few scenes which is rarely seen these days.

Plus I'd also not seen the vids for Wild In The Streets and Never Say Goodbye before and I thought they were both pretty cool, even though they are only mixed live footage and just look like any other '80s Jovi video.

I hope I find Crossorad on DVD sometime soon before my VCR finally munches my video. :lol:

I think when the band either beaks up or one of them dies, they will release all they can o DVD's for us to buy.
so sooner or later it will come.

What a nice cheery thing to say :lol:

I work in Morrisons in Barry, South Wales and I think that DVD was simply just a stroke of luck. It was the only one there and it was in a sale along with some other DVD's.

This DVD will keep me going until the band finally decide to re-issue their videography onto DVD (whenever that will be) and I will definately buy all of them. 8)

Dave 1986 11-06-2004 03:33 PM

I've just seen it on Play.com for £5.99 so you won't have to look as hard for it. :lol:

Rob 11-07-2004 03:44 PM

Play.com rocks! How many videos are on the DVD? Bad Name, Prayer, Wanted, Never Say Goodbye, Wild In The Streets? Is it worth getting, because I've seen all five videos already?

And a live performance of Living on a Prayer from the SWW tour that they let MTV use on the music video awards that year (despite popular misconception that it is an MTV Awards specific performance) If you haven't seen it.....it's not just another live performance of the thousands you have seen/heard by now. The live arrangement of the song was different from what it morphed into by the New Jersey tour with a different ending and you hear what the SWW tour did to Jon's voice. It also has a rawer/heavier sound.

~saz~ 11-08-2004 08:52 PM

I never knew that the LOAP live part was from the SWW tour. I really like that version

Thomas Anderson 11-08-2004 09:41 PM

I watched it through yesterday and hadn't seen the clips before, only watched the songs. The version I have is German I think (going my the menus) but after it finishes it keeps playing for 6 minutes with what appears to be a Spanish menu (I think)....looks like someone took that DVD and recorded it but left it going at the end and didn't bother editing.

Also the box smells like the blank boxes I bought for my DVDRs so I'm guessing it's not only unnoficial but unprofessional too, lol.

Rob 11-08-2004 11:00 PM

Cool. Looks like I'm off to play.com :D

I've noticed that too. When I first saw the Spanish menu, i got very confused.
