Product Description

From the first mega-chorus shout of the album-opening "In and Out of Love", it's obvious that 7800 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT marks an evolution from Bon Jovi's debut. The image got bigger and so did the sound. The album went gold, and a year later the band shot to the stratosphere with SLIPPERY WHEN WET.
"The Price of Love" is a tight, well-written rocker categorised by its memorable Bon Jovi hook. "Only Lonely" is perfect pop metal with a great riff and even catchier solo. "Silent Night" is a true power ballad, before the term denoted the mandatory first single from every hair band. "Tokyo Road", the band's homage to far-Eastern pleasures, is a consistent live favourite. "The Hardest Part Is the Night" is a mid-tempo rocker that features a creative solo from Richie Sambora. Tico Torres lets loose on the skins on the blistering andgritty "Always Run to You". A mid-'80s crunchy metal riff combines with a polished keyboard-crafted instrumental frame of "Secret Dreams". Bon Jovi took melody and heavy rock to the next level on this thoroughly mature effort.

How Does This Album Not Get The Reconition It Deserves???
This may well be the most underated album ever. I got into Bon Jovi in 2000 with the release of "Crush" and started to work my way back through the Bon Jovi timeline buying all thier stuff. My god was i surprised when i bought this album, not surprised that it was really good but surprised about how over looked it is?? This is an awsome album, heavier than the bon jovi we might hear nowadays. Its deffitnaley worth purchasing for anyone with a slight intrest in Bon Jovi, and also for you "rockers" who overlook Bon Jovi for something a bit heavier buying this may well be a plesent surprise for you!

Bon Jovi's 2nd Album --- Underated Gem!
"7800 Degrees Fahrenheit" was Bon Jovi's second album released in 1985, it's a great follow up to "Bon Jovi" and is a better album in my opinion than the 1st, even though i rate that album very highly also.
Standout tracks for me are "In and Out Of Love", "Tokyo Road", "Silent Night", "Only Lonely" and "Hardest Part Is The Night" --- all awesome songs that should have made the top 10 in the singles chart, oh well they have made up in chart posistions since!
The album therfore in my opinion is great but VERY underated, if you are a fan then i do recommened it highly so please give it a go and you may be pleasantly sursprised.

Hot Rock!
Bon Jovi round two - and an album that is usually overlooked by many, despite it being a quality product.

This CD showed a mature sound from the band, after their debut's pop-like feel. It is probably the bands most heavy rock album, and full of songs that have a strong guitar base to them.

The album is not quite as uplifting as their later stuff, which may put people off, but the songs are a vast improvement on their debut album.

Tokyo Road, for me, is the standout. Jon's lyrics are superb here, much improved from last time, stronger, more resilient and a bit lower in tone.

King of the Mountain is a guilty pleasure - not particularly brilliant, but an enjoyable, indulgent song. Silent Night is also a strong track, that has a creepy opening sound, but will totally rock your socks off.

This Bon Jovi album is the exception to the rest of their career. The heavy rock sound making it not only sound completely different to later albums, but almost being a one off. Don't expect the love ballads, or fast-paced stadium sound. This is a band showing they can do quality material, and therefore it deserves to be heard.
