Bon Jovi are set to release a deluxe edition of Slippery When Wet, featuring bonus and unreleased material.
Slippery When Wet was Bon Jovi's third studio and was released on August 18, 1986 by Mercury Records in North America and Vertigo Records internationally. The album features many of Bon Jovi's best-known songs, including "You Give Love a Bad Name," "Livin' on a Prayer," and "Wanted Dead or Alive."
Slippery When Wet spent eight weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and was named by Billboard as the top-selling album of 1987. The record is Bon Jovi's best-selling album to date, with a Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) certification of 15× Platinum.
