Editorial Reviews

Bon Jovi re-releases their classic studio albums as "Special Editions." Each of the band's first 10 albums--Bon Jovi, 7800° Fahrenheit, Slippery When Wet, New Jersey, Keep The Faith, These Days, Crush, Bounce, Have A Nice Day and Lost Highway- will feature the original studio album tracks plus era-specific live recordings included as bonus tracks. The bonus live tracks include songs taken from sound checks and concerts held in venues from all over the world, ranging from 500-seat theatres to massive football stadiums. Each "Special Edition" collection features new packaging, including images from each period, and new liner notes documenting the band's success through each stage of their twenty-five year career, as well as reproductions of laminated tour credentials. Additionally, each "Special Edition" will provide fans with the ability to gain "backstage access" to The Bon Jovi Virtual Tour Experience -- a website being created to offer exclusive virtual content, including photos, tour memorabilia and additional live audio tracks.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you don't already have the remaster...., October 14, 2010

I was listening to these guys before they hit it big with their third album, and I like this one plenty. But I bought it without realizing I already had the remastered version, which was released a couple years back. The live concert tracks on this disc don't warrant buying the same album twice, as Bon Jovi's concert vocals leave something to be desired. However, if you don't already have the remastered disc, I do recommend getting this, as it showcases their raw talents before the industry polished their material to a blinding luster. The studio tracks are edgy rock most any fan will genuinely appreciate. And I assume the studio tracks are also the remastered versions from the previous release.

The new release of 10 Bon Jovi albums is nice for the consumer who already doesn't own the 1999 Bon Jovi Remasters CD's. Some extra live tracks, new booklets and access to some bonus material on bonjovi.com aren't enough reason for me to "Rebuy" these Cd's. The 1999 Remasters sound alot better and have song lyrics included! A money- making ploy no doubt, gotta love it!

As a huge Bon Jovi fan, I buy this special edition and I love it! The live tracks, the new packing, the laminated tour and the access to new photos and additional live audio tracks on Bon Jovi Virtual Tour Experience are wonderful!!!! If you are a Bon Jovi fan you must have this album! I totally recomend!
