If that’s so why is Richie Sambora not as successful being a solo artist as he was being in Bon Jovi? They make a great team working together and have been successful that way. Nonetheless, Bon Jovi is still selling out concerts and is extremely successful without Richie, therefore it did not only take Richie to make Bon Jovi the legends they are today!

@@irenetrela2770 yeah I agree with you. They are successful because they make a great team. It's crazy how sometimes people give too much credit to Richie and disregard Jon's effort. Jon and Richie are a great songwriters. The magic happened because they worked together. Not just because of Richie alone.

@@irenetrela2770Together they were great! But I think Richie is more talented and soulful. For John, music is a job, and for Richie, music is life. Richie is living his life the way he wants to live it. No one is bossing him around and forcing him to go on long and exhausting tours. Richie was always tired of touring...Why isn't he as successful? Because he never put much effort into promoting solo albums. And alcohol, of course... And John still has the reputation of the band they made together. Although the video of BonJovi's 2022 tour I just couldn't watch... It's very sad...

Richie has always been, and will always be one of my best underrated guitar players. Yes, he could also shred just like other other guitar greats, but he chose to focus on creating songs and guitar solos which elevates those songs.

THEY ARE BOTH EQUALLY TALENTED MEN. The band supported Richie through some rough times, including rehab. Richie signed on to Jon's dream and would not have the life he has now without Jon's vision. I'm sure he didn't regret the trips to the bank. In the end, he had a daughter who needed his help, and he was financially able to quit the band to help her. I think he also had some issues with John Shanks at the end...but...Tico, David, and Hugh still believed in Jon and they continued on and I think they continued to make great music. AGAIN, THEY ARE BOTH TALENTED MEN!

Uh... you do know that both Jon & Richie had solo careers, right? The former was evidently more successful w/ platinum-selling albums and a number one award-winning single. Even when Jon was writing songs on his own like "Dry County", he evidently made lots of room for Richie to shine. Because outside of Bon Jovi, Richie is generally ignored even by most of the band's fans. At least David Bryan made an award-winning musical.
