CB review 8.30.86 pg 8. 1st ARSA mention 9.6.86 tho 1st sgl YGLaBN's 1st ARSA was 8.28.86. I reckon in hindsight we all think of Bon Jovi AFTER Slippery's huge success but b4 it wasn't massive. Anyway, the book Let It Rock: The Making of Slippery When Wet lists 7.23.86 as the release date [well done Warlock]. I mean this LP didn't even chart BB until 9.13.86! Was Mercury asleep at the wheel or being frugal? It has seemed to work out OK.
