Lee & Pete React to Famous Albums! - Bon Jovi's Slippery When Wet (1986)

[@nickgjenkins]

I have never really thought Sambora got the credit he deserved as a singer. He worked SO WELL with Jon's voice.

[@hughJ]

Not sure if this will get modded out, but this is actually my favorite version of the song: XMNi3Tt_Hl8&t=2113s

[@Timmyyycx]

More videos like this, PLEASE

[@TribalGuitars]

100%!!!

[@chriscolabella880]

Yes. They might not be monetised.... but they will help you to 1M subs. I've spent £1000s at Andertons online since discovering your channel.

[@meddlecho]

Or an album Pete’s played on 👍

[@Forest_Fifer]

Fun fact, the kid that gets up onstage at the end of Rockstar to take over vocals is Myles Kennedy.

[@nicksburson1]

What can't Myles sing

[@keithbriscoe99]

really?? well that's cool.

[@JTB--]

Wayne Campbell- I was not Aware of that

[@hangtite87]

Really? Now I've got to watch it again.

[@Fret-knot]

I agree with Pete - The whole thing of holding up mobile phones at concerts really gets on your t***s - Just go a gig, watch and enjoy... Not everything needs to be recorded &/or posted on social media.

[@huskyspade3461]

This is why Tool doesn't allow recording. (Except for the LAST song of the night)

[@cptnkewl8569]

totally agree - the problem is, it is recorded and watched through a display but no one likes to view those shitty filmed and lousy mic'd concerts...

[@JackFlower]

I always film at gigs, I love to watch the videos back and holding up my phone and recording literally takes away nothing from the enjoyment of the gig. If anything I get two round of enjoyment - you should try it!

[@Onz70]

Totally agree. Put your phone away and enjoy the moment.

[@heather6668]

@@JackFlower Maybe not for you but the people around you also paid for their seat so they could enjoy the show without others holding a camera phone up in front of them. Maybe try living in the moment. Take a few pics and put the phone away and just go with it and enjoy the night. It's said that people want a 70 inch tv at home but when they go to a sporting event or a live show they look at everything through a 7 inch screen. Seriously I was at a concert a few years back and the woman in front kept flashing her damn camera all night. Now the guy hadn't done a Cher and changed outfits every song, he was still standing at the microphone. Who the hell needed a hundred pictures pretty much all the same?

[@Wadey1960CS]

The sheer JOY in Lee's face during this episode would light the whole of Guilford for several years. It's contagious! great video idea guys! MORE please

[@TheOnlineBarrister]

So glad you gave Sambora his due, I'm a HUGE fan of his and he is so underrated.

[@MarkHarrop]

Slippery When Wet was the album that got me into rock music. Then seeing them live changed everything for me. Just love Rock! 🤘

[@themattexpress]

My dad would always check out his new sound system with this record. One of my all time favorites!

[@joeg1709]

This is a great idea for content. Talking about the sound, how it was made and just appreciating the music, I'm here for it.

[@roughcutguitars]

RIGHT??? As long as they don't get to gear-heavy, but keep it balanced with the listening experience, it's brilliant!

[@theyearsshallrun6641]

This is glorious. Lee genuinely looks like he’s 14 again. SWW is an incredible album and it lovely to see Bon Jovi getting some proper recognition. Criminally underrated band.

[@onenotesolo256]

The ‘Young Guns’ one was the JBJ solo effort with Jeff Beck doing the lead guitar. ‘Blaze of Glory’ I think. And the guitar switch over in Dead or Alive, when they play it live, is covered by the keyboard player doing the guitar run down on keys, while Sambora switches to the electric. Quite clever and seamless live. Fab band at that time. Sambora will be recognised more and more as the years go by for his singable solos.

[@germanomosconi392]

Blaze of glory! Correct!

[@Severinate]

Jon Bon Jovi is in Young Guns 2. He's one of the guys that escapes from the (pit) cage, he gets shot.

[@pepmasters-999]

Jon Bon Jovi has no connection to Young Guns. IIRC, the director of Young Guns II wanted to use Dead or Alive, but JBJ persuaded him it wouldn't work lyrically and instead wrote a whole album for the film, including the single Blaze of Glory.

[@DennyG995]

Bloody brilliant album the Blaze Of Glory album too.

[@francois978]

Bon Jovi's live performance at Wembley in 1995 is one of the most memorable stadium rock concerts to date!

[@RobColbourne]

Fun fact, the film Rockstar is based on Judas Priest and Ripper Owens joining the band

[@ToddTheJoker]

Tim Pierce played ALL the guitars on their first single Runaway I believe it was..so cool! oh and Pete, I had a black Takamine acoustic and I loved it!! lol

[@mmiller6873]

Love this format. Want more of this Gents. Great work as always!!

[@kaiying74]

Wanted: Dead or Alive solo is right up there, so much power and feel...and that tone man!!

[@crisbochguitar]

Yeah, one of my favourite ones ever

[@eearts]

This was so much fun guys! Please do more of these! Lee’s knowledge is exceptional 😇

[@mikewalde143]

Going to a Bon Jovi gig in the 80s always felt like a party. Slippery when wet and New Jersey were fabulous albums, the gigs were epic and Sambora was the reason I first picked up a guitar. I was also lucky enough to take my son to see them at both Milton Keynes Bowl and Wembley Stadium and watch him get the guitar bug too. Watching this was a real trip down memory lane for me, so thanks guys.

[@paulhancock7670]

This is possibly the most entertaining Andertons video I've seen. Thanks and more please !

[@huskyspade3461]

I love spending hours in front of my stereo playing records, enjoying the artwork, liner notes, lyrics, and everything else that comes along with that experience. I will show up for every video you make like this!

[@stevendearden8030]

I was also 14 in 1986 and I can remember just how awesome this album was...and still is. Every track is superb. Made me pick up the guitar and I'm still strumming those cowboy chords and playing those pentatonic licks today. Great album choice.

[@TylerRolloGuitar]

I cant believe Lee hasn't watched Rockstar, its a sick film - you'd love it!

[@larrydj549]

He hasn't even seen Crossroads

[@Lez325]

What??? It's Classic @@larrydj549

[@lance134679]

You really couldn't escape Bon Jovi in the '80s. It was on MTV/Much Music, it was on top 40 radio, in the clubs... At the time, I thought they were pretty good, but I was especially impressed with Bon Jovi's singing. Definitely one of the most iconic, 1-in-a-million singers in rock & roll history.

[@keishti]

Great to see this video with Lee and Pete swapping stories but what I loved was seeing Lee being taken back to when he was young and you can see how much enjoyment he had slipping back into the memories of his youth.

[@J0eR0e]

Congrats, Lee & Pete! ...awesome idea, I hope this will be followed up by a whole lot more episodes... I love it 🤟

[@GoofieNewfie]

Def Lepard Hysteria or ACDC who made who. As for Bon Jovi, best Male duo in rock pop ever. Richie one of the biggest influences for me and guitar and one of the most often forgotten underrated guitarist of all times. Sad they had issues, now Jon's voice is gone. Countless good albums

[@KentuckyPatriot1776]

I’d argue that Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell would be up there on that list.

[@themattexpress]

Please mention Desmond Child!! You Give Love a Bad Name and Livin’ On A Prayer. He had a hand in those songs. One of the songs is a regurgitated Bonnie Tyler song.

[@Ryandavidsmith13]

Came here to say - you give love a bad name is a reworked version of “if you were a woman” originally performed by Bonnie Tyler - Desmond Child is a legend

[@themattexpress]

@@Ryandavidsmith13Thank goodness someone knows their stuff! I was trying to figure that one out. It’s definitely not fair for me to say a regurgitation. I’m a big fan of Butch Walker and he has talked very highly about Desmond. I didn’t realize that he had such a hold on everything that I loved about writing and music making. He is definitely a staple in my life in music. I hate to say I was late to the game but at least I’m playing now. Thank you for responding!

[@MikeBradleyofficial]

YES!! All hail the Sambora. You were right Lee, in the 90's (These Days Tour) he used the fender Tonemaster amps. amazing amps.

[@MarkBarronMusic]

Hellyeah, my favourite rock album! And I'm a prog guy, mostly. But as far as simple, hard-hitting, genuinely great songs, you can't get better than Slippery When Wet. In a world where people are forgetting how awesome it is to listen to records from start to finish, please do more videos like this!

[@OliverBird-d3i]

This video is awesome and very nostalgic, takes me back to good times!! Do more of these guys and keep up the great work 🎸🥁🎹🎼🎤

[@Bob-Whiting]

I love this concept boys, more please! Also, I was about 26 when you were 14 Lee which is pretty close to Jon's age at the time too I think, he's 3 years younger than me.

[@Drinckx2]

Love this format. Great to hear you talk about your music collections and your views about the guitar sound and playing.

[@cjr1324]

Loved this. I was born in ‘66 and think this era of music was incredible. Pete’s call on Reckless is great. Nothing but hits. Others to consider: Hotel California, Back in Black, (Foreigner) 4, Paradise Theatre, 2112 or Moving Pictures…..to name a few.

[@sargentrowell81]

For Wanted, Richie would finish that harmonizing line with Jon and quickly switch guitars just in time to turn around and dive head first into his solo. Phil X started off doing the same tactic but starting on the 2017 This House Is Not For Sale Tour he would put on his electric he would use and kind of hide it behind his back and put on his 12 string acoustic, only to remove it just before the solo. A bit more simplified and doable since Phil doesn't use a double neck.

[@JimSCoyle]

Great idea guys love this

[@DanielHengMusic]

Let's not even forget about the vocal harmony which was insanely awesome

[@metalplaylist]

What an era... Can you imagine that 1986-87 have seen Van Halen 5150, Def Leppard Hysteria, Bon Jovi Slippery, Gun's N'Roses Appetite, Whitesnake 87', INXS Kick, U2 Joshua Tree, Metallica Master of Puppets... Insane times.. I Was 15, 16 at these years and it changed my life forever.

[@JustSomeGuy]

Some album choices: The Joshua Tree by U2 Love Deluxe by Sade Blackstar by David Bowie Meat Is Murder by The Smiths And here's a wild card: Bloodsuckers by VAMPS (most epic piano intro ever)

[@oli2079]

This was great guys I'm keen for more of these videos. Sambora is my favourite player and I'm glad you've taken a moment to show some of his best guitar playing. He's very underrated in my opinion.

[@sithbk0075]

Love this throwback Tuesday. Keep ‘‘em coming and give iconic rock bands their dues.

[@matthewtyler-jones8317]

Love this format!

[@michaelbuckingham5140]

I would love to see a reaction from Pete to Stranger in this Town -Richie Sambora. From a guitar point alone it is my favourite album. Would also like to see Van Halen 1, Slip of the Tongue - White Snake, Coverdale/Page, and maybe some Rock Candy - Orianthi

[@davidtaylar8870]

THIS is great! LOVE to hear guitarists appreciate music as a whole.

[@jp3813]

This album would've been even better if they included "Edge of a Broken Heart" & "Borderline".

[@akc5150]

🤣

[@vacion610]

Absolutely! That first one especially could've been another hit.

[@allanroney]

‘Edge of a Broken Heart’ is one of their best tunes, and Jon has already expressed regret at not including it on the album - what a lost hit!

[@jp3813]

@@allanroney And they only released three singles from this album domestically. I think "Never Say Goodbye" (currently their 8th most watched music video) could've been their 3rd chart-topper. But I guess they were excited about releasing their next album.

[@TheGuitarman1968]

Wow, this video really brings back some great memories. I graduated from high school in 1986, and I also turned 18 that summer. You couldn't go anywhere without hearing a song from "Slippery When Wet." The first time I saw (relatively unknown at the time) Bon Jovi live was Easter sunday 1984, in Fresno, CA, when they opened for Scorpions. It was one heck of a concert. Bon Jovi also opened for Ratt in the band's early years, and a year later, Bon Jovi was so big that Ratt was opening for them. Bon Jovi was everywhere in the 80's, and deservedly so. They were a great band in their prime.

[@toster2803]

Ok THIS is an epic video idea I want more of this

[@alzg8779]

Great idea guys! Thin Lizzy Live and Dangerous....thanks!

[@dillontaylor8035]

Great video! Great to see them getting the credit they deserve!

[@cryptochaos]

Great episode! Looking forward to more.

[@TheCluelessConman]

This is an awesome video!! Please continue this with more albums!

[@roughcutguitars]

Brilliant idea! Absolutely looking forward to more. The idea for extending it to 1st-time listening to contributions is genius.

[@orjand]

Please do more of these! Loved this

[@mattski180]

Richie Sambora's guitar playing on his solo albums is fire. "Who I am" off undiscovered soul is pure gold ..... Also the solo in "Dry county" is mint.....His vocals are also incredible, both with Bon Jovi and his solo stuff, beefed up the bon Jovi stuff for sure!!

[@krisberntzen]

Great new style of video. What you were saying in the beginning, no one has the time to listen to an intro anymore, makes me nostalgic for the album era. I was never a Bon Jovi fan, but seeing videos like this makes me more curious

[@rodmorgan7041]

A totally different video than usual guys, and it was great. Keep it up and let's see more.

[@jeremylostracco20]

This kind of video is so cool! Love to hear your opinions about records and music rather than gear for a change!

[@donbelanger8691]

Great Video. Please do more of these for some of the classic albums which you are passionate about. Well done

[@daywalker091]

This is a great series! Hope to see more of this

[@lebroucke]

Slippery When Wet and New Jersey are fantastic albums! I had the chance to see them in Brazil for New Jersey’s tour and to this day that was the only time there were moments my feet didn’t touch the ground due to the crowd movement. 🤘🤘

[@PatrickGanster]

Very nice! Thank you very much! I guess I could see Robert Palmer Heavy Nova among the albums… might be worth a reaction as well… cheers!

[@davidharding200]

Loving this! More please sir!

[@sammychicken4290]

The "These Days" album of one of my favourites. Thanks, guys & kind regards from Adelaide, South Australia 🇦🇺.

[@soundtechmusicschool]

Same age, lee. This album then Appetite in '87 - Musical perfection for a 14 yr old. This album taught me about tinnitus!

[@jonswoveland]

'72 represent! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@robbie12207]

Haha, I was in the exact same order. Slippery, then on to Appetite!

[@chrisbrownguitar]

Richie’s solo album is one of my favourites, stranger in this town, get on that one

[@GMFRK99]

I've been watching this channel for years, loving the guitar videos, and wishing that you guys would dip a toe into "react content" for a while. Not only that, Richie Sambora was the reason I started playing guitar in the first place. Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this video pop up. Fantastic. Would be awesome to see more just like this. I would also recommend the album "Keep the faith" as a reaction, but if you're looking to change up the artist, perhaps "Love at first sting" Or "Blackout" albums by the Scorpions! Cheers

[@manceanon7139]

This was great, please make it a weekly series

[@matthewmartin7639]

I was 10 years old. It was 2005 and I was flipping through trying to find a DVD to watch. Found one that I thought was a movie. Turned out it was the live from Zurich 2000 taping from the Crush tour. I was instantly HOOKED. I asked my dad about it and he introduced me to the wonderful world of 80s rock. Richie Sambora is the entire reason I started playing the guitar. I don't know what it is about him but his playing was always just extremely good. Never over the top and always took the song to the next level. My dad and I did eventually get to see Bon Jovi in concert (albeit with Phil X). Edit: And yes, My black Takamine is solely because I saw Jon playing it. Had it almost 11 years now and it's still a beast.)

[@swissdani71]

What a great format! And a great album

[@karencrout]

Great looking forward to hearing the next one.

[@rickpasley6961]

An album you might not have experienced but is one of my absolute favorites is Fizzy Fuzzy Big and Buzzy by the Refreshments! Such a great album, top to bottom. Love the concept and absolutely love Slippery When Wet! Keep up the great work.

[@jturnof]

Chicago II (2) would be amazing! (Pete - Reckless was my favorite album for years and years!)

[@6-10noir]

Great video! I really like this concept. Some of my favorite albums are: John Mayer - Continuum Beatles - Let it be Fleetwood Mac - Rumours Oasis - Morning Glory Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin 4 (There are to many great albums 😂) “Lesser known”: Mando Diao - Boblikov’s magical world The Zombies - Odyssey and oracle Reese Wynans - Sweet release Spoon - Ga ga ga ga Free - Tons of sobs

[@whu84]

Sambora and hes melodic playing is what inspired me to pick up a guitar the guy is terribly underrated and he deserves much more credit than he’s given don’t think they would have been half as successful as they are with out him 🎸🎸🎸

[@denmar355]

Steve Perry- “Street Talk” Guitar: Michael Landau, Waddy Wachtel, Craig Hill. Several great songs.

[@johnoakleymusic]

Easily one of the greatest albums of all time! Wanted is the reason I picked up a guitar in the first place. Adore that album and some of the non releases are amazing like I’d Die For You and Without Love, Wild In the Streets and Raise Your Hands. Total perfection

[@Deadhansome]

Loved this. More please.

[@joshuaH75]

Lee is living his teenage years again listening and discussing this album. Lee is truly reminiscing! This was fun!

Back to back bangers!!! Sambora is the whole reason I started playing 🤘🏼

[@AADW-mf4mr]

Very entertaining! Back in 1986, when I was 11 years old, I was into Europe "Final Countdown". Then my brother gave me their 2nd album "Wings if tomorrow". That was my first step into "Heavy Rock" John Norum is a great Gary Moore inspired guitarist!

[@saryukulele]

The genius of the Living on a Prayer solo is that it is effectively the bass line with a lot of flourishes around it.
