1990, Jon Bon Jovi went to No.1 on the US singles chart with Blaze Of Glory, a No.2 in the UK. The track appeared in the motion picture Young Guns II, for which it was originally recorded. The song was allegedly recorded by Jon Bon Jovi because Emilio Estévez requested Bon Jovis song Wanted Dead or Alive for the soundtrack to Young Guns II, but Bon Jovi didnt think the lyrics, about the bands constantly touring, fit the theme of the Western movie. However, the request inspired him to write Blaze of Glory with lyrics more topical to the film. The song remains a crowd favorite with Bon Jovi fans, despite the fact that the song was not released as one of the bands singles, and only by Jon. The track is notable for the performance of Jeff Beck on guitar.
