Amazon.co.uk Review
It must have been a hard job enlisting someone to write to music for IYoung Guns II/i. There simply aren't many great songwriters capable of overblown rock ballads which keep a straight face long enough to move you. Jon Bon Jovi, though, is not without a certain pedigree in this department: "Livin' On A Prayer", "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" and "Wanted Dead Or Alive" are masterpieces of the genre that deserve far more respect than received wisdom would have you believe. And the good news is that--on IYoung Guns II/i--there is plenty more where that came from. You may be familiar with the hit single "Blaze Of Glory"; it sounds positively restrained next to "Blood Money" and "Never Say Die". There is something tremendously likeable about Jon Bon Jovi at the best of times. Like his New Jersey(tm) role model Bruce Springsteen, the blue collar sensibility has weathered the ascension to superstardom. Unlike Bruce though, Jon Bon Jovi is more than happy to dash off unabashed epics for post-brat pack celluloid homages to John Ford, boasting titles such as "Justice In The Barrel" and "Dyin' Ain't Much Of A Livin'". In a profession already bursting with people who take themselves too seriously, this is undoubtedly a good thing. --IPeter Paphides /i

One of The Best Jon / Bon Jovi Albums Ever January 20, 2001
Rachel (UK)
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Truely a masterpiece. The album is just as powerfull now as when it was first released. It has that classic eighties Rock n Roll sound. Favourites are Billy Get Your Guns, Justice in The Barrel, Never Say Die, Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin' and all time favourite Santa Fe. If you still don't own this album buy it you won't be disapointed.
I#x27;m A Cowboy... November 30, 2005

Bon Jovi#x27;s fascination with the Western continues with this soundtrack to the largely unmemorable film Young Guns II. However, this soundtrack is anything but unmemorable, with plenty of great tunes and wonderful lyrics.pNamed after the classic song Blaze of Glory, that is indeed a stand out track, but don#x27;t expect the rest of the album to not live up to the legendary status of that song. pThe album ranges from quieter laid back songs like Miracle, catchy anthem like songs like Bang A Drum, to full on rock songs like Never Say Die. You even get a short instrumental song, Guano City, that was used in the film.pBon Jovi#x27;s husky tones suit this kind of cowboy album perfectly, and coupled with lyrics that really do make you feel like you are listening to a musical take on a Western movie. Memorable and easily relistenable many times, Blaze of Glory makes you want to jump on your horse and ride off into the sunset...
Santa Fe. Nuff said. August 2, 2002

Blaze of Glory rises above the trappings of a soundtrack to a rather lame movie, and ends up being one of the most consistent albums with which Mr Giovi's been involved. pIt's not 100% fantastic (there are a couple of things that don't work, such as "Justice in a Barrel", and "You Really Got Me Now", but I defy any Bon Jovi fan not to be bowled over by the sheer brilliance of "Bang a Drum" and the title track. pAnd then there's "Santa Fe". Words alone can not do it justice. Just buy this CD, slam on Track 5, and everything will become clear.
