    Richie Sambora - Stranger in this town

    I hadnt heard this cd in years, but I got it out yesterday, it rocks. His 2nd solo cd didnt grab me, but this guy is all class, and has great feel. Any fans here?

    I was actually listening to this album the other week, some great songs on their for sure, except Rosie, l dig his second solo album too, and overall l think Richie's 2 solo albums are better than anything Bon Jovi can release.

    I really like his soulful tasty playing, he never overplays. Lost classic cd for sure. His voice kicks ass too. A crime that he is just a backing vocalist 99% of the time.

    I've only heard the title track. It was on a Fender 50th anniversary CD. Definitely a great song. I think that song shows his guitar chops better than Bon Jovi, and his voice is way better that JBJ.

    I have both his solo albums, he's seriously underrated. And against by better judgement I'll admit out loud that I like Bon Jovi as well... By the way, I heard he was working on another solo album, so maybe we have something to look forward to?

    Yeah. Underrated guitar player, vocalist for sure. I probably didn't appreciate the album enough bach when it came out, because I probably was more into, say, Vai at the time. I think I may still have it somewhere. I hope I didn't sell it or something.

    Outstanding cd! My faves are Father Time and The Answer.

    Richie had some superb talent on this disc too...Eric Clapton & Tony Levin!

    i concur with you buddy.ritchie sambora is a very underated guitar player and i was always afan of his playing style technique etc and his guitar sound is fantastic,his solos and overall playing is full of beautiful melody lines and harmonies.
