Bon Jovi always reminds me of my high school days back in
the 80s & 90s. Radio friendly rock that you can actually bob too. In that
same breath, I'm still intrigued by the band's longevity, as their music are a
bit dated. But you can say the same about The Rolling Stones, but good music
still remains good music. Not that What About Now is Bon Jovi's best offering
yet, but for a rock band that has withstood the test of musical times, this is
not a bad offering at all. The 12th studio release from the New Jersey
rockers is a throwback at old rock, and guitarist Richie Sambora characterised the
new material as a compilation of “different elements”. Die-hard fans of the
band will enjoy the CD, but I doubt if it will win them over legion of new
fans. But hey, who the hack am I to 'not to like' the CD. They have sold out
stadium shows and will be rocking the South African block in May. They will
still make their dollars and some fans might just enjoy the new release.
