However, I do love the book for what it is, rather than disliking it for what it is not. Billed as a story of the band's career, it's a bit misleading. This is a unique portrait of rock legends after 25 years together, reflecting on their past as well looking forward to the future.īon Jovi: When We Were Beautiful is about the legendary band Bon Jovi as of 2008. Jon Bon Jovi is writing an introduction and text throughout the book, and the other band members, including Richie Sambora, are contributing extended captions. Archival photographs provide the complete picture of the band′s extraordinary reign at the top of the charts. The book is illustrated with gorgeous new photos and stills from the documentary, providing unprecedented insights into a band that is known for staying away from the media. The documentary follows the band on their 2008 Lost Highway tour and at home, talking about everything from life on the road and onstage to band members′ own personal crises. It is the companion to a major documentary to be released in Fall 09 to coincide with the band′s anniversary. BON JOVI: WHEN WE WERE BEAUTIFUL is an intimate look at one of America′s most enduringly popular bands after 25 years of hits, fame, tours and troubles.
