The only thing that is throwing me off is the fact that Amazon has this under 'Mercury' and CCM has it under 'Island' both are affiliates.

Is it possible that Matt just doesn't know about these releases?

It's not like Jon is promoting them.

Well, it's officially listed on two legit sites, I think Matt is just a dumb-dumb.

Honestly, they NEED to include the best version ever of Keep The Faith, the version from Anaheim in 2003 when he goes crazy in the middle with all the bomb noises and ad libbing!

That's a phenomenal performance. There's so many legendary performances that I feel that we'll always be disappointed by the contents of a live album.

Sears has it under Mercury

And Top Music Zone has it under Universal

Matt is more of a Jon guy. When it comes to band stuff, I don't think he's so much in the loop. There hasn't been an official announcement on Bon Jovi.com so maybe that's the reason for his illiterate response.

The same thing happened with the New Jersey releases. We knew everything about them weeks before the official announcement took place.

I'm still keeping my finger crossed.

I hope the album won't be filled with live version of post 2000 "hits". There are a few things i would love to see on this album
- a good quality version of LOAP where Jon sings the key change.
- We all Sleep Alone, You Keep Me Hanging On, Cadillac Man from Odeon 1990 and also The Sole Truth but I highly doubt we will ever hear this song on an album.
- live versions that weren't previously released as b-sides or on maxi singles

I wonder if they'll put 'I Don't Like Mondays' on there?? Because you know, they are aware of how much the fans want that song on a live compilation....

If we look at the page below, we can see that the "new release" is marked in the list of Reissues.

If you look at other albums in that section, it looks like that's were they put compilation type albums. There are other new greatest hits and live albums from other artists.

It doesn't mean anything.

Well, at first glance it looked like a list of the re-releases of old records.

The entity responsible for issuing this is Universal Music Enterprises. Branch specializing in (mainly) the reissues and special editions of classic albums. Below is a full list of Bon Jovi releases, which came under the sign of UMe:

On this list are "One Wild Night Live" and "Fans Can't Be Wrong" but also... releases like a "Chronicles". I hope that in this case we're not dealing with something like that... ;)

Amazon.co.uk shows it as being available only on import... Not a good sign that it's a "new" release.
