 (18 Customer Reviews)
Producers include: Bruce Fairbairn, Bob Rock, Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, Lance Quinn.
While Bon Jovi always managed to stick a couple of killer album tracks on their records, their main strength has always been singles. Cross Road collects all of their biggest hits, adding a couple of new songs and Jon Bon Jovi's solo hit, "Blaze of Glory," for good measure. Even the band's detractors may not be able to resist the constant flow of big guitars, big hooks, and sweet melodies that pour out on Cross Road. After all, this is what state-of-the-art mainstream hard rock was all about in the late '80s. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Bon Jovi finally offers CROSS ROAD, a collection of their best songs plus two recent compositions and a new version of a classic. Fans and first-timers alike will delight in and sing along with this choice blend of hard pop and edgy anthems.
"Someday I'll Be Saturday Night" and "Always" continue the Bon Jovi tradition of gritty love songs and rock poetry. Jon Bon Jovi's coarse yet smoothe vocals reach out and paint images of characters caught in an American scenic painting, "gotta live my life like I ain't got nothin' but this roll of the dice" Jon Bon Jovi claims in one song. With "Prayer '94" the band offers a toned-down version of "Livin' On A Prayer" which through its subdued, semi-acoustic demeanor achieves an intensity not found in the original.
CROSS ROAD reminds us why Bon Jovi is such a successful band. Solid songwriting, excellent production and a killer sound will keep this band on the charts.

Fantasticcompilation of all Bon Jovi's biggest hits. Great listen if you cant decide which BJ album to listen to, then just listen to Cross Road! The best of it all. Fantastic, well worth the money. And also one of the new songs on this cd, 'Always' is fantastic and one of my all time favorite Bon Jovi songs.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  10 REASONS TO HATE THIS ALBUM
C'mon...
1) Why they released 2 amazing new songs in this "the best" album? They would reserve it for a new studio album (in 1994... Not THESE DAYS, their worst album!)
2) Prayer '94?? What the fu%$@?
3) Why they forgot hits like "Born To Be My Baby", "Blood On Blood", "Wild In The Streets", "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" and "Only Lonely"?
4) Why they forgot ballads such "Silent Night", "Never Say Goodbye", "Living In Sin" and "In These Arms"?
5) And what about "DRY COUNTY" their most well produced song?
6) If it's a BON JOVI greatest hits, why did they add "BLAZE OF GLORY" and left Richie Sambora hits like "BALLAD OF YOUTH"?
7) Only 1 song from their debut album... Hum... What about SHE DON't KNOW ME or GET READY!?
8) Only 1 song from YOUNG GUNS II... Okay, in my opinion, YGII is one of the greatest solo albums i ever seen: Miracle, Never Say Die and Santa Fe!! Oh... Billy Get Your Guns!
9) The tracks would be placed in order of their release year.
10) Only one more sugestion; I am a huge BON JOVI fan, i think they deserved a 2-cd greatest hits, not this garbage!

Cross Road: 14 Classic Grooves
 $12.39  
Laughing Hyenas include: John Brannon (vocals, trumpet); Jim Kimball, Kevin Strickland.
They had obvious influences (most notably the Birthday Party and Fun House-era Stooges), but the Laughing Hyenas were a fierce, sulfuric blast of fresh noise that galvanized the Michigan punk scene with this 1987 debut. Merry-Go-Round is a brawling, bloodied lip of a record, delivering twice the cathartic buzz that vocalist John Brannon's former group, Negative Approach could muster, and even then at half the speed. The Laughing Hyenas perfected their attack over the course of the next two releases, reaching a climax with the brutal masterpiece Life of Crime, but Merry-Go-Round sets the template with deceptively simple voodoo blues and a rhythmic complexity that's rarely acknowledged. Kevin Strickland's sinister bass riffs are in lock-step with Jim Kimball's tribal thud, and together they form one of rock's great rhythm sections, laying the framework for Larissa Strickland's jagged, strangled guitar and ...

Prior to the Scorpions' monstrous success packing stadiums around the world during the '80s heavy metal heyday, a decade earlier they released a string of excellent hard rock albums that secretly helped shape the entire genre. In Trance/Virgin Killer is a limited-edition, leather-bound book containing both albums on two remastered discs, with 1974's Fly to the Rainbow dispersed as bonus tracks. Making this package even more attractive are extensive liner notes that contain an early band biography, complete lyrics, rare photos, as well as original album cover artwork previously banned in the United States. The sound throughout is crisp, clear, melodic, and heavy, and makes obvious the influence these albums had on many bands. It would seem unlikely that a ...
