That's right my magic wee mushrooms there's not one but THREE Bon Jovi albums that you can possibly win in the next week!
SLIPPERY WHEN WET...The instant commercial smash for the band that has sold over 28 million copies world wide. The well -known album cover consists of a wet black garbage bag with the words "Slippery When Wet" traced in the water. However, originally it was to feature a busty, 34DD woman in a wet yellow tee shirt with the album name on the front of the shirt. Why was it changed? Did the band think it stereotyped women? No...Jon Bon Jovi hated the pink edging to the cover...
NEW JERSEY... New Jersey holds the record for the hard rock album to spawn the most Top 10 singles, with five singles charting on the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart in United States. No other hard rock album has ever equalled or broken this feat. It was initially meant to be a double album, but this idea was rejected by the record company because they got nervous about the higher price point and decided they would only release a single album. It has achieved sales of over 15 million worldwide.
KEEP THE FAITH... In October 1991 the band went to the Caribbean island of St. Thomas to discuss plans for the future; their 'internal' problems were solved and they were ready to have a go at a comeback. 'Keep The Faith' represented "The beginning of a new chapter in the history of Bon Jovi". The album turned away from heavy drums and wild guitar solos, and introduced a new, more 'mature' sound. To date the album has sold 10 million copies worldwide.
BUT HERE'S THE ADDED BONUS!... Each album has been updated with exclusive live tracks from the era, and includes a special reproduction vintage backstage pass that unlocks access to “The Bon Jovi Vaults" (a designated area on BonJovi.com). This will give you exclusive virtual content, including photos, tour memorabilia and additional live audio tracks! Nice.
Don't forget Bon Jovi are on 'The Circle' tour that seems them play Westpac Stadium, Wellington on December 4th and Mt Smart Stadium in Auckland on December 5th. Guys...make it an early xmas for the lady in your life! You can send her off with a mate to lust after Richie Sambora and you can slob on the couch watching sports and scratching...
Not one...
...not two ...
but three BJ albums up for grabs!
Lovely little entry passes too!
OMG - it's years since I've been in Auckland to listen to Hauraki - whatever happened to Kevin Black? Wow, great competition. And thanks for the nostalgia, Max!
