First of all, hats off to Bon Jovi for trying something different with This Left Feels Right--a selective collection of their most popular songs with a twist. That twist isn't a purely acoustic reworking, MTV unplugged style--anybody looking for that experience will be sorely disappointed by what's on offer. What Bon Jovi have done is re-record these songs in a completely different way while maintaining the original lyrics, melody and song structure. What's different then? Well, quite a bit actually. Check out the almost trip-hop beat and distorted vocal of "Wanted Dead or Alive", or the lazy soul of "Livin' on a Prayer". "It's My Life" is a beautiful piano-only standout, almost worth having the whole album for.

The tracklisting isn't perfect, concentrating largely on their 1980s period (there's nothing from These Days, for instance). As such, the venture works as an effective cheese-extraction exercise, keeping the elements that made the originals so great, but removing shouty, hairspray-fuelled "whoa-yeahs". What we get is something that is closer to Jon Bon Jovi's last solo offering--the criminally underrated Destination Anyway. It doesn't always work ("Bed of Roses" just sounds like a warbling cover of the powerful original and by the time they reach "Always" it's obvious they've run out of new twists), and no doubt there will be legions of bemulleted faithfuls who will denounce this as blasphemy of the highest order. Sure, it's probably just record-company filler, but it's a worthwhile investment and you won't be embarrassed to have it on when your mates come round. --Cortman Virtue

1 out of 5 stars The point?.......2007-06-28

So let me get this straight...all of Bon Jovi's hits were gathered together, chopped up, and destroyed to produce this piece of trash? How about an ACTUAL greatest hits album?

2 out of 5 stars Disapointed.......2007-06-25

I did not like any of the songs on this album. It really only ranks 1 star, but I'll give a point for trying something new.

"This left feels right" sounds like it was done by a high school cover band trying to be artistic. Ranks WAY below Tesla (see "Five man acoustical jam" for those of you younger then 30).

I am a Bon Jovi fan and bought this without reservation. I suggest you sample the songs before you buy.

5 out of 5 stars Love it........2007-05-09

I love this album. I also love the original songs. Sometimes you feel like a nut; sometimes you don't. For those who are gasping at the supposed blasphemy of messing with classics, well, if this is all they have to worry about, their lives must be pretty good and I'm happy for them. As for me, I'm impressed that Bon Jovi took a bit of a risk. I think it worked out nicely. I'd happily buy more of this style from them.

1 out of 5 stars What a let down!!!!.......2007-03-22

I was SO disappointed when I listened to this CD! It's a remix of the songs. They are done acousticly and it is not worth buying. I love Bon Jovi, but this was a HUGE disappointment! I am not happy with this CD at all.

2 out of 5 stars Jon Bon Jovi & Sons songs from the "Funeral Parlor".......2007-02-25

Wow, it does pain me to knock on Bon Jovi, I love New Jersey, Slippery, Keep The Faith, Cross Road, Crash and Have a Nice Day. All albums are uplifting and cheerful and all contain a handful of raise-your-fist-in-the-air anthems. I loved all these songs the first time around. Now all the songs, and the album as a whole, has this morbid, undertaking tone to it, as if Johnny Cash was their inspiration behind re-recording their greatest hits stripped down. The low point is It's My Life, the original is such an upbeat and uplifting anthem, that listening to this version makes me want to drive my car off a cliff, it's that big of a downer! This album is reminiscent of John Mellencamp's Rough Harvest cd, where Mellencamp re-records some hits and album tracks with a more raw, earthy feel to them, but to both artists why? My mother has always stated that she wants Bon Jovi's music to be played at her wake as she loves the band and is in my eyes Bon Jovi's biggest fan. Bon Jovi put out an appropriately themed album to all those fans hoping to have Bon Jovi played at their wake/funeral.

1 out of 5 stars THESE ARE NOT THE ORIGINAL HITS!.......2000-12-13

Chubby Checker's original dancing classics like "The Twist," "Pony Time," "Limbo Rock," and "Let's Twist Again" were issued originally on Parkway/Cameo Records. These classics hits never have been issued on CD stateside, but I thought I would try a European issue to see if it contained the real thing. Unfortunately, it doesn't. If you want the Chubby Checker hits you've danced and listened to your whole life, you won't find them here!

4 out of 5 stars The Grand Puba is a dancing fool!.......2000-04-13

Come On Baby - Let's Twist Again! The platters that play over at the Putter Palace generally have Chubby in the mix! Great dancing music, fun for the kids and great to do the housework to! Put these tunes on the gramophone and GO LIKE THIS! Round and around. Shake it, Shake it baby and Do the Twist!

Any blues or R&B aficianado should own this collection! All the performances are stellar, and why isn't that cover of "Good Rockin' Tonight" with Sweet Alice Hoskins, Dallas Moore, and the virtuoso guitarist Chuck Morpurgo on every IPOD in America? Truly as grinding as "Sweet Home Chicago."

5 out of 5 stars blown away.......2003-04-25

What an amazing CD. It is a great tribute to one of the most important recording labels in modern music history, King Records. The songs, all of which come from the original King catalog, are great. Some are familiar, others less so. The musicianship is great and the arrangements are great. Peter Frampton and Bootsie Collins each do remarkably different versions of Hideaway. The version of Fever done by Over the Rhine is the most sensual version ever recorded! And, the jazz/funk version of James Brown's Cold Sweat as well as the punkish version of the Twist, are fresh to hear. Great creativity! The variety of music is great. It's great to hear a compilation that is not formulaic and not overly produced. This CD is true to its purpose...to present great music and to carry a message of how greatness emerges from diversity. I'd recommend it to anyone.

      3 out of 5 stars Old Blue Eyes? Why would anybody even try? .......2005-05-14

      OK, I love this guys singing. There are underated singers and undiscovered singers. American Idol is discovering some of the undiscovereds, but there are still a lot out there who are worth listening to but who have the disadvantage of being over 30 years of age and are performing music that does not appeal to the under 30 set. J.D. Cash is one of those undiscovereds that really deserves to be discovered. However, this isn't the CD you want to be discovering him with. First, despite how good J.D. Cash is, why would you want to buy a CD with interpretations of songs that the Chairman of the Board himself has made his own? Now, somebody like Bobby Darin may have been up to the challenge, but even though Darin flirted with the idea by recording some of Frank Sinatra's songs and arguably singing them better than Sinatra, he never went all the way by recording a full album of Sinatra's songs. While J.D. Cash does a commendable job with the songs, Frank Sinatra greatist hits compilations are easy to come by, are cheaper, and with all due respect to J.D., are better. My suggestion is to buy J.D. Cash's Summer Place CD first. On that CD J.D. has created something valuable to add to the music world. Then, when you feel you just want to get a bit more of this guy's wonderful voice, buy this CD.

      4 out of 5 stars Better than Old Blue Eyes.......2003-08-20

      I've known JD for about 25 years, so I'm a little biased. He's always had a terrific voice and incredible range. He makes his songs sound easy. He recently gave me a copy of this CD and I've been playing it in my vehicle. JD takes Sinatra's songs and does his best to sound like Old Blue Eyes, but he falls short. He sounds better! If you like Sinatra's tunes, you'll love what JD Cash does with them.
