bands of the last 30 years. The 1980's to 1990's, would probably
be described as the peak of their record sales and album production.

tours and have sold over one hundred and thirty million albums.
The band is named after lead singer and songwriter Jon Bon Jovi,
who wrote most of the bands songs with Richie Sambora. Bon Jovi

the one which will be best remembered.
