Format:Audio CD
hi, I'm 12 years old and me and my dad bought this album a couple of weeks ago because my dad said that it was their best album. I had only heard, wanted dead or alive and livin' on a prayer so i had no idea of what this album would be like. It arrived very shortly after purchase and i have found that this album is absolutely superb! i have now got it on my iPod and im litening to it frequently when i go on car journeys.
Absoloutely brilliant album, strongly recommend.

Maybe they just became too popular but I 'discovered' Bon Jovi through the pages of Kerrang alongside Metallica and Iron Maiden. Back then these bands were almost taboo in the media and it was a relatively small club of people who followed heavy rock. They knew there was an honesty about the music they liked that gave a strong identity (to being a heedbanger). Bon Jovi pushed the commercial appeal of their music after this album losing an edge in favour of mass pop appeal. Their choice but they lost a bit of credibility.
So I would recommend this album to anyone who got into Bon Jovi latterly and have missed this album so far, it may not have an ultra glossy finish but has great songs and that youthful energy so many bands have on their first album.

Bon Jovi's First Studio Album
This is an excellent debut album. It doesn't compare much to many of their later efforts, due, in part, to the distinct eightyness of it, but is still very good. Read more

They had to start somewhere
This is their first ever album that was released in 1983. It is a lot different from what you would expect of the Jovi of today. Read more

Unexpectedly good!
Some bits of this sound dated, but on the whole this has an air of a secret classic about it - the sound of full accomplished early 80s rock, coming out of a band's debut... Read more

Good, but by no means excellent.
The thing about this CD is that while it is good in it's own right, when you look at the big picture of all the Bon Jovi albums, this one isn't that special. Read more
