On This Day, Aug. 18, 1986…
Bon Jovi released their third studio album, Slippery When Wet, which wound up being a huge breakthrough for the band.
The album, produced by Bruce Fairbairn, spent eight weeks at #1 on the Billboard Albums chart, and was the band’s first #1 album.
It produced two #1 singles, “You Give Love a Bad Name” and “Livin’ on a Prayer,” both of which were written by Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora and Desmond Child. The album’s third single, “Wanted Dead or Alive,” was a top-10 hit, peaking at #7 on the Hot 100.
Slippery When Wet would go on to be Billboard’s top-selling album of 1987, and has since been certified 15-times Platinum by the RIAA.
