Vintage Album Review presents: Bon Jovi's "Slippery When Wet"

Ol' Dirty Basement: True Crime and Vintage Movie Reviews

"Send us a Fan Mail Text Message"

Ever felt that rush of nostalgia when a classic rock tune hits the airwaves? We're cranking it up a notch with a blast from the past as Nutley Nick—you know him as West Virginia Nick—joins us with his special Japanese version of Bon Jovi's "Slippery When Wet." Strap in for a ride through the history of New Jersey's rock icons, where we uncover the original album artwork that never made the cut and dissect the anthem that almost wasn't, "Livin' on a Prayer." We'll even toss in some good old debate: Is Jon Bon Jovi or Bruce Springsteen the true New Jersey hero?
As we go track by track, we'll hit you with lesser-known facts that'll make even the most die-hard fans do a double-take. Just how does Desmond Child's songwriting mastery resonate with the working class? What's the connection between "You Give Love a Bad Name" and Bonnie Tyler? And let's not forget the harmonious showdowns—Richie Sambora's guitar solos meet anthemic choruses, making for a rock symphony that's stood the test of time.
To cap it all off, we're pulling back the curtain on the music industry's inner workings: Did teenagers in New York really pick the hits? How do artists like Prince continue to influence music beyond the grave? And we've got a heartwarming story about Bon Jovi’s lasting friendship with Skid Row's Dave "The Snake" Sabo. Whether you're here to reminisce or to discover the roots of rock 'n' roll, you're in for a treat that's as timeless as the classics we're celebrating.
