Bounce (Bon Jovi album)

Common card · No. 236949

Bounce is the eighth studio album by American rock band Bon Jovi, released on October 8, 2002, through Island Records. Produced by Luke Ebbin, Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora, the album was recorded at Sanctuary II Studio in New Jersey. Bounce was heavily influenced by the September 11 attacks, owing in part to Jon Bon Jovi's proximity to New York City. The title "Bounce" was a reference to New York City's and the United States' ability to bounce back from the World Trade Center attacks as a nation. Its cover art, a stylized image of a radio telescope dish at the Very Large Array, was photographed by Kevin Westenberg and produced by Kevin Reagan. The album debuted at number two on the US Billboard 200, making it Bon Jovi's highest debut in the band's history at that time, although it became their first album not to reach platinum status in the US.
