The Circle is the title of the eleventh studio album by rock band Bon Jovi. Produced by John Shanks, the album is due to be released November 10, 2009, with the new single "We Weren't Born to Follow" premiering on radio August 17.[1] In an interview given to Rolling Stone Magazine, guitarist Richie Sambora says the album is a return to "rock and roll" and said "There’s going to be some big choruses on there. It sounds like Bon Jovi, but it sounds fresh. We experimented with a lot of new sounds and had a really good time working with John Shanks, who is also a really good guitar player, so he and I did a lot of ‘weaseling’ with the guitar sounds. There are a lot of really good guitar sounds and new kind atmospheres on the new Bon Jovi record, that I think makes it really modern. I think people are going to dig it, man. And it rocks hard."[2]

Excellent record just got an advance before it hits on the 10th of November, and the guitar solos are top notch, fierce sounding and raw. Cant believe Richie is not spoken more of in greatest guitarists, once again the no respect for this band, people are quicker to give props to Guns N Roses for 2 albums than a career.
