"Inject your soul with liberty, it's free" sadly underrated, but no surprise given such an embarrassment of riches

Fun fact: the next album that Bruce Fairbairn produced after this was Elegantly Wasted by INXS. Both Hutchence and Fairbarn would be dead within a couple of years, the latter being found dead by Jon Anderson while working on a Yes project.

...and of course Fairbairn produced New Jersey, for those that didn't know.
At the time he passed away he apparently was going to team up with Bob Rock for another Bon Jovi production. I'm assuming this would have been the LP that became Crush?
