    OK…THAT was a great interview. I love how you asked thoughtful questions, but then also let Richie really expand on his answers. But maybe the greatest part was at the end, how you really went for it on that second “Livin’ on a prayer!” I could almost sense your brain thinking “ok, I may never get this chance again, so I’m going for it!” 🤘🏻

    Always a fan of both....sure it would be great to see them together one last time ,they both have issues and not getting younger, but for now lets wish them both the best and thank you for a great 40 years of music and memories.

    I think JBJ has been very complimentary about Richie, quite rightly, the band were better with him but all credit to JBJ to carry on and make it work..he’s a very smart guy with good values and work ethos. I’ve found a new found respect for Bon Jovi. It would be for the fans if they could reunite.

      @@AllisonHagendorf I've not seen you interview anyone before, however, I see that you only reply to the positive comments about the interview and Richie and ignore the ones that call him out for his bad behaviour and his clearly intoxicated or affected by the results of so many years of intoxication state. Would be nice if you could see past him and acknowledge those who don't think the sun shines out of his ass. Yes, he contributed much to the success of Bon Jovi, BUT, he was NOT the frontman of the band. If he wasn't happy with that dynamic he didn't have to be there for 30 years. No one is saying he isn't entitled to leave. The issue is how he went about it

    People shouldn’t forget how important Richie was to JBJ’s success. The documentary kind of reminds of the Chicago Bulls Last Dance, which was MJ’s recollection of the times and events, but probably not the full and transparent account of events. This doc also is the same. It’s the story as told by JBJ. Richie there is no JBJ and the success the band had without you. The best songs from my youth were co-written by you. Rock on Sir!!

    What’s great about this interview is Richie actually sounds well and healthy. He’s had some bad PR with a few podcasts and interviews in the last 12 months (one even getting pulled after being released) and this interview feels like a total 180. Obviously Richie still has some demons I’m sure but as a huge fan, this was refreshing to see him in this light.
    One of my favorite moments was getting to eat Richie’s 50th birthday cake at the meadowlands. He had this insane Les Paul shaped cake brought out and the 15 year old me was just pinching myself that I was backstage filming with the band and experiencing Richie’s birthday. Little did I know the end of the band was so close. -Patrick

    • @FStoppers
      @FStoppers หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@CharliePutz yeah I’m not sure what to make of the Prayer performance. I will say that when you’ve played that song a million times, it’s easy to 1) take playing it for granted and therefore mess up a bit and 2) try to play it differently than you’ve always played it because you are bored to death of it. That said, it didn’t sound like he can hit the notes either so the idea that he can cover for Jon is suspect.
      But I think he sounded great during the interview. Compare this to the one he did with foo fighter’s Chris Shiflett and its night and day. -P

      Love Richie...Lucky I was able to meet him and spend time with him one night...he's the reason I became a guitar player....BUT...He still isn't right. Fortunately, he does sound better than he has in recent interviews -- however, you can tell his pronounciation of words is off, the over the top physical antics. I've seen Richie completely straight and this is night and day -- although, as others pointed out again, he's better than he's been. Agree with the others on here, Prayer was cringe-worthy for numerous reasons. He also needs to stop taking shots at Jon -- comes off as unprofessional and catty. Oh and everyone who says there would be no Jon without Richie: Listen -- Bon Jovi wouldn't be "Bon Jovi" without both of them. BOTH of them are what made that band successful (along with the others who composed the perfect bass lines, piano parts, and drum grooves). Pray he can get back to a healthy Richie again.

    Any fans of Bon Jovi and/or Richie, if you haven't already, you must get his 1st solo album Stranger In This Town. Wall to wall fantastic. I don't throw "masterpiece" around lightly but it warrants it. Then go to his next albums, lots of gems in all of them. His voice is so rich, so powerful, and his songs are amazing.

Heck, at one point, he told Richie to shut the F up about all that he did in the band because he knows Richie did a lot and he didn’t want him getting any credit. Richie is finally speaking out on how he feels about it and I for one am glad he is.
      Also, Jon was wrong for calling out Alec and his issues in the documentary. Alec passed away and is not even here to defend himself. Jon is cold hearted and cold blooded, egotistical, self centered and it kills me that his fans actually think he could ever do anything wrong. I really don’t see how Richie put up with him for all those years

      ​@@denisecastleberry5724 No all the guys talked with Alec and Alec was the one that finally made the decision to leave!!!OMG! You know nothing. Alec was always drunk on stage. And never showed up to record. They had to do something about him even tho it hurt them. But they all stayed friends. As for Richie he left without telling anyone that night he wasn't showing up and then never showed up again and left them stranded without a guitar player how is that fair. He didn't even tell them why!! In the real world if someone didn't show up for work they would be fired on the spot!! Same dif. Plus Richie if feeling good in this interview. Real nice. He needs to go back to rehab. He is such a dumbass. Jon isn't talking smack about him but Richie is about him and Bon Jovi. He didn't have a problem when he was in the group as I watching videos of them back inn the day. he seemed fine then. He wouldn't be anything without them in fact he told Jon that he was going to be HIS guitar player. Jon should have kept looking for one and not just signed on Richie so fast. I love how Richie is changing history when he is interviews and he changes it in every interview he does. He can't keep it straight. I'm getting so sick and tired of him right now lying when he opens his mouth. I can't even hear anymore of this interview. He's making a fool of himself. He needs to get his 💩 together. Because he has lied why he left Bon Jovi in the first place and he's lying now. And the guys are being really good about it not calling him on it but us real fans know it. We know the time lines. And you followers just believe everything he says.

    Hey Richie and Alison ✋🏻 just wanted to say I don’t think Jon would’ve made it as a solo artist because Richie was the heart and soul of that band. Richie, I know you heard the fans screaming every time you did your solo parts on guitar or vocals especially I’ll Be There for You! That song was made for you to sing. I love your new songs as well and your older albums too. Undiscovered Soul is my favorite. Seeing you live in concert is tops on my bucket list since I have never had the opportunity to do that.
    Alison, I think you made a lot of new fans after that interview. I know I am one of them. Thanks to you both for taking the time to share with us.

    • @heather6668
      @heather6668 29 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @@user-vw1lz4pf6d Exactly - where's the huge headlining tour he probably thought he would have? He's a fantastic guitarist and harmony vocalist in Bon Jovi but like so many who think they're better than they actually are, he didn't quite hit. Jon also doesn't disparage him or his value to the band, whereas Richie seems to put Jon down whenever he gets an opportunity. While it would be great if he came back and they could be what they were (doubtful after so many years and the change in their music at their ages), I think Jon would be an idiot to take him back and believe that he was committed to his place in the band and let's face it, Jon is anything but an idiot. I think he regrets leaving and realises he needed the band. That the other band members still have a rift with him after all those years tells me that he was in the wrong with how he left and they resent it. No one knows what went on between them all but I think if he was going to return it should have been within a year or two. Kind of think that ship has sailed. Jon doesn't seem to want to say it's not going to happen, but Richie still seems to be at odds with everything and want to fuel animosity. I can't see a reunion working unless ALL of them put aside their differences and agree to start over and not bring up old crap.

    Thanks for the interview. Always loved Richie and his solo music as it seemed a lot more expressive than the stuff he did with Bon Jovi. Not that I don’t love his material with Bon Jovi but after he left there just seems to be big gaping void that only he can fill. Kudos to Richie for maintaining his integrity. Richie is one of those once in a lifetime guitarists who can never be replicated because he has so many different approaches to his material. Often copied never replicated. Looking forward to hearing more of his new material. God bless from Fiji 🇫🇯👍😎🤙👊🤘

    Allison, thank you, thank you, thank you! I just watched "Thank You and Good Night" the night before last. I binged all four episodes in a row. This interview with Richie added some balance to that story. I agreed with everything Richie said. There was some shifts in the timeline. There were also some albums missing from the series too. Like Jon was actually dropped or temporarily dropped from the label. That wasn't in there. The story about why Alec left is also different than what I recall from interviews with Jon right after it happened. Plus, so much about Richie's contributions and what he did and even how he was portrayed was off. So this added balance. It also offered hope. God don't we all need some hope? I would love for Jon to be able to come back and for Richie to rejoin him on stage. Even if it were for just one night. It would be worth the wait. Thanks again for your show. I love it. I love what you're doing. DON'T. EVER. STOP!

    I watched the new Bon Jovi doc, as well as this and a few other interviews with Richie. I think Richie is amenable to a reunion, but Jon seems a bit bitter about it. Through all the docuseries and the press interviews Jon has done, he comes across as a LOT more egotistical than I thought he was the 40 years I've been a fan. I'm still a HUGE fan, but in each episode and interview I see with Jon he just has this "I knew I was gonna be great, I was great, I'm still great" attitude. Maybe I read it wrong, it's all subjective. All that said, as great as Phil X is, I think Richie coming back in the next year or 2 for a record and tour would be a money-printing machine. Fingers crossed.

I would love for jons voice to heal and have Ritchie come back for a short tour or tv concert as a thank you and farewell to the millions of fans. I feel sorry for Jon. Hes on a massive promo tour for his documentary which ive been watching tons of them and the first question he's asked is about Richie.

    Seeing them live blew me away & I was hooked to live shows ever since.Support from Lita Forde too \m/ Two Rock N' Roll Cowboys....
    Ps,if it does happen I also hope the the ticket prices are not ridiculously high....It has gotten waaaaaaaaaaaay out of control....There's a topic you should be talking to your guests about.

I was a huge RATT fan but in all honesty both bands put on a fantastic high-energy show and we left feeling like we definitely got our money's worth. It might've been a year later for their next albums and when Slippery When Wet hit it big, Bon Jovi went through the roof to super-stardom. What an incredible ride it must have been for these guys.

I didn’t even know they were still a band after Richie left. I had no clue they were still making music ?? I didn’t hear anything. Richie Sambora honestly was part of the creative force of the band Bon Jovi without him. It’s not the same.

      He speaks for many people, Richie without Bon Jovi is nobody, and I add, many people don't want him back.

    Well, firstly what a GREAT HONEST THOUGHTFUL interview. Ritchie Sambora is the REAL DEAL. He was the kindest supportive generous musician person human being you could ever meet. I was a Norwich UK born lady ( with a disability) I could not do much but I could sing a decent rock song. I found support & manager who when in New York at a recording studio met Ritchie Sambora. They chatted and Ritchie offered to meet me with a view to write a song for me. How kind and generous is that! Well Slippery when Wet was just recorded and Bon Jovi were in UK touring that album. It was the start of the undercurrent that was huge. I was to meet Ritchie in Ipswich ( my home town gig ) at their hotel. My manager booked a room in the hotel. I went for breakfast Jon was there, he asked me to join him I did. We chatted then I went back to my room. Things happened that showed Jon to have the biggest ego. He was not pleasant and when a girl turns him down well….. I met Ritchie but because “ this is Jon’s band” I could not get my song. Jon stopped that. But Ritchie tried he played me Bad Medicine that was on their next album. We clicked and I picked up the tune easily but sadly someone’s ego stopped me from moving forward. My disability Stills disease is not an easy thing very painful. But alas my music career was halted. But Ritchie was so cool and supportive but in hindsight Jon was very single minded even then Richie was right as I said goodbye to Richie he said “ I’m so sorry but this is his band” I knew what that meant. 😞

    Great job Allison! My childhood musical idol. Richie and Prince. I have a Richie cherryburst sig Strat and have cherished it for years. I write songs and have played music for a living for 25 yrs because of Richie. Stranger is still my fav all time album. Beginning to end is brilliance.
    Richie, if you should see this, i just want you to be happy, healthy, and keep putting out solo albums. All of them are fantastic!

      Stranger in this town is perhaps the most underrated solo album in rock music history, a total masterpiece, while Richie himself is the top 50 guitar player of all time. He was the soul of BJ in the 80's/90's. It's a pity he still can't get rid of his demons.

    Yeah, Richie seems so relaxed and chill. Always been a Richie fan! IMO he was the the X-Factor for BJ.
    Allison, you're so patient and such a great interviewer. Your energy is so positive.

      dont get your hopes up, He is going no where, he is just stating what he wishes would happen. its a different story when you listen to the other side. No one is asking for him there.
