Keep The Faith - Gary Clail

Advantages: Lyrics, Songs,
Disadvantages: Too many "slow" tempo tracks

...on the album. 10. KEEP THE FAITH - Everyone who has this album knows Keep the Faith. I love Faith's vocals on this song, especially the ad-libs. This is probably the most memorable song on the album. Everyone who I know who has this album loves this song. The intro immediately captured me. To me, this is her most inspirational song that she's ever written or sung. This song is one of her classics. My favourite of the album. 11. SPECIAL PLACE INTERLUDE -This interlude lasts for just only over a min (doesn't seem like it does when you listen to it) and even though you may know the words, it's not very memorable. 12. NEVER GONNA LET YOU GO - Now, when I first listened to this song I really disliked it. I thought it was too "soppy" for Faith Evans. I also did wonder why she released it as a single.

This desperate time for classic rock saw the demise in sales figures and popularity if not existence of many of Bon Jovis' peers.

The only notable exceptions were Areosmith and maybe Van Halen who were still selling records in the states. Of course there were bands like U2, Guns and Roses, and Metallica who flourished, but they were... Read review

...Having previously reviewed 'New Jersey', I thought I should give my opinion on my second favourite Jovi album. For me this is not as good as 'New Jersey', but that is because it is different. Whereas 'NJ' had a large western feel to the main part of the album, 'KTF' is more like Bon Jovi at there best, delivering their brand of stadium rock. Tracklisting 1. I Believe 2. Keep The Faith 3. I'll Sleep When Im Dead 4. In These Arms 5. Bed Of Roses 6. If I Was Your Mother 7. Dry County 8. Woman In Love 9. Fear 10. I Want You 11. Blame It On The Love Of Rock & Roll 12. Little Bit Of Soul 13. Save A Prayer Undoubtedly one of the greatest songs ever, Dry County, an epic rock tune that seems to go on for ever. Guitar solos were never really my thing until a few years back, but after hearing the solo in the middle of 'Dry... Read review
