Hi there team.

A follower of this column just let me know that today is the 34th anniversary of the release of Bon Jovi’s monumental album Slippery When Wet.

The album blasted through what was going around at the time and became one of the biggest things going in the late 80’s and still sells well today.

Slippery contained huge tracks in every sense including Wanted Dead Or Alive, Social Disease, You Give Love A Bad Name and the colossal hit Livin’ On A Prayer, the story of Tommy and Gina living through hard times.

Maybe Jon Bon Jovi should transform Prayer as an anthem for today.

Have you still got your vinyl, CD or even cassette copy of Slippery When Wet?

What’s your top track off Slippery?
