Dem Vinyl Boyz Ep 65 - Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet

This week, we're cranking up the volume and rocking out to one of the iconic albums that defined the '80s - Bon Jovi's "Slippery When Wet."

Join us as we take a trip down memory lane with the New Jersey rock legends and explore the pulsating beats, soulful lyrics, and anthemic choruses that make "Slippery When Wet" a true masterpiece. Released in 1986, this album skyrocketed Bon Jovi to international stardom, becoming one of the best-selling albums of its era.

Inspired by a wet motorcycle ride, the album's title perfectly captures the raw, unbridled energy that flows through each track. From the iconic opener "Let It Rock" to the power ballad "Livin' on a Prayer" and the rebellious "Wanted Dead or Alive," every song on this record is a journey through the highs and lows of life on the road.

Get ready for a lively discussion as we dissect the album track by track, sharing our favorite moments, personal anecdotes, and the impact "Slippery When Wet" had on the rock music scene. From Jon Bon Jovi's charismatic vocals to Richie Sambora's electrifying guitar solos, we'll explore the magic that turned this album into a timeless classic.

For decades, people who enjoyed music on vinyl records instead of CDs or MP3s were considered dinosaurs. While we like moving at 33 RPM, the rest of the world rushed and went to digital. Not only did vinyl refuse to die but demand is at its highest since at least 1991. It's a good thing Dem Vinyl Boyz saved all their records from back in the day. Because, now we have the biggest collection of 12-inch records on the radio.  Dem Vinyl Boyz love the joy of sliding a classic album out of its cover; the crackle of a needle just dropped into a groove; the careful way to pick up and flip a record when a side ends. On the podcast each week we feature a different piece of music history on vinyl record. Dem Vinyl Boyz experience the album front and back, giving you commentary and music facts along the way. Put your ear buds in and let us take you on a musically journey listening to the greatest music of all time and the history of how it became legendary. Dem Vinyl Boyz! Respect The Technique
