When KEEP THE FAITH was released in 1992, it had been four years since the commercial success of NEW JERSEY.

Times and tastes had changed, with bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam stealing the spotlight. KEEP THE FAITH

reflects the change, as the straight-ahead, Springsteenish rock of past efforts gave way to the more adult-

contemporary sound; they even cut their hair!

"I Believe" is a rocker about looking inward for salvation. "Keep the Faith" holds up to the band's earlier

material in hard-rocking style. "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" (co-written by Desmond Child before he was "Livin'

La Vida Loca") is about making every minute count. "In These Arms" is another standout track, and sounds the

most like the pop material on NEW JERSEY. "Bed of Roses" is an excellent ballad featuring guitarist Richie

Sambora on background vocals. The band takes a stab at a rock epic with the 10-minute "Dry County." "Little

Bit of Soul" is just that--a gritty, bluesy number about not giving up. While KEEP THE FAITH is quite

different from the band's early days, it shows that the Garden State rockers weren't content to be mired in a

sound from 1986. Mature, good-time rock & roll.
