Album Reviews

Bon Jovi

`Lost Highway'

Universal

This is Bon Jovi's 10th album, two years after ``Have A Nice Day.'' Fronted by lead singer and namesake Jon Bon Jovi, the group presents 12 tracks of its musical legacy spanning 25 years.

The album is a hybrid of rock and country, which is seen as the band's future course. Bon Jovi and country music fit together smoothly on this album. ``Lost Highway,'' ``Summertime,'' ``We Got It Going On'' and ``Any Other Day,'' all in the band's signature style, invoke the spirit of country music.

The album includes duets with Big & Rich and LeAnn Rimes, while retaining producer/songwriter John Shanks from the band's previous album, ``Have A Nice Day.''
