RockN Roll Books is
excited to announce the acquisition of "Let it Rock: The Making
of Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet" from
popular UK-based music biographer Neil Daniels, whose recently
published works include "The Story of Judas Priest: Defenders of
the Faith" (Omnibus
Press) and "Don't Stop Believin' - The Untold Story of
Journey" (Omnibus
Press).
"Let
it Rock" will take fans behind the scenes into the studio and broader
world of Bon Jovi as
the band created what would become a touchstone for hard rock in the
later 1980s, helping the genre's commercial cross over with the
band's mainstream success with chart-topping hits like 'Livin' on a
Prayer,' 'You Give Love a Bad Name,' and 'Wanted Dead or Alive.' The
book will include behind the scenes interviews with members of the
band's inner-circle, studio personnel, management, etc., and promises
to offer the first definitive look inside the making of an album that
- according to Rolling Stone Magazine- helped Bon Jovi explode into
"one of the dominant mainstream rock bands of the Eighties."
Commenting for his fans on what they can expect from the pages of his latest rock read, Neil Daniels revealed that `Slippery When Wet` remains not only the most pivotal album in Bon Jovi's career but also one of the genre's defining albums of the 1980s and this book will explore the album's history as well as placing it within a broader spectrum of the band's back catalogue. Is it their best work."
