Before he became famous with Bon Jovi, guitarist Richie Sambora had been part of a rather decent New Jersey band called Shark Frenzy. Volumes 1&2 (Retroworld) collects together some of the band’s recordings over two CDs. It’s interesting, if not classic. The style is, if anything, more sophisticated than Jovi, and you can tell that Sambora is a major talent. The band also featured Bruce Foster, who’s gone on to become a major figure as a songwriter and producer.
