If you’ve been delaying a purchase of a new turntable, now would be the time to do so. Island Records and Universal Music Enterprises are giving one Best Classic Bands reader the new box set Bon Jovi: The Albums.
The comprehensive vinyl collection of 17 albums on 25 LPs – available for purchase on February 10 – includes all of Bon Jovi‘s albums and then some. The massive set also includes Extras, a new compilation created exclusively for the box set featuring international rarities.
Every album preserves the original look and sound of the originals – all LP jackets are exact replicas of the original album cover and songs have been mastered to the band’s specifications to ensure exceptional audio quality. Many of the titles have never before been released on vinyl.
Bon Jovi: The Albums spans the group’s releases from their 1984 debut, Bon Jovi, through their 1986 best-seller Slippery When Wet, to 1988’s New Jersey (available here as a 2-LP set), to 2005’s Have a Nice Day, and 2016’s This House is Not For Sale, and every studio album in between.
That output covers the band’s six #1 albums and four #1 hits: “You Give Love a Bad Name,” “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “Bad Medicine” and “I’ll Be There for You” as well as such classic rock songs as “It’s My Life,” “Always,” “Wanted Dead or Alive” and “Runaway.”
