Editing 7800° Fahrenheit (section)

==Background==
Recorded in six weeks between January and March 1985, at the Warehouse Studios in [[Philadelphia]], [[Pennsylvania]], the album marked the final collaboration between Bon Jovi and producer Lance Quinn. It is the only Bon Jovi album to feature songwriting by four of the band members; "Secret Dreams" is the only Bon Jovi song to date for which drummer [[Tico Torres]] receives a writing credit.

While the album has proved a fan favorite, the band was unsatisfied with its sound and essentially disowned it once they had solidified their status as worldwide superstars with ''[[Slippery When Wet]]'' and ''[[New Jersey (album)|New Jersey]]''. It is the least represented album in their set lists over the course of the career: nothing from ''{{proper name|7800° Fahrenheit}}'' was performed after the [[New Jersey Syndicate Tour]], but a few performances of "Tokyo Road" in Japan and Brazil during the 1990s, a few performances of "Only Lonely" during [[The Circle Tour]] in 2010, and one performance of "Tokyo Road" in [[Hawaii]], also during The Circle Tour.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://bjtours.jimdo.com/the-albums/1985-7800-fahrenheit/|title = 1985 - {{proper name|7800° Fahrenheit}}|website=Bjtours.jimdo.com}}</ref>

"I always overlook the second album," noted Jon Bon Jovi in 2007. "Always have, always will. We had no time to make it and we didn't know who we were... We did whatever producer Lance Quinn said. He was a brilliant guitarist and had made [[Talking Heads: 77|records]] with [[Talking Heads]], so you listened."<ref>{{cite magazine|first=Mark|last=Blake|author-link=Mark Blake (writer)|title=My brilliant career: Jon Bon Jovi|magazine=[[Q (magazine)|Q]] #253|date=August 2007|page=68}}</ref>

"All of us were going through tough times on a personal level," he explained at the time of ''Slippery When Wet''{{'}}s release. "And the strain told on the music we produced. It wasn't a pleasant experience... Lance Quinn wasn't the man for us, and that added to the feeling that we were going about it badly. None of us want to live in that mental state ever again. We've put the record behind us, and moved on."<ref>{{cite magazine|first=Malcolm|last=Dome|author-link=Malcolm Dome|title=We'll make it, I swear...|magazine=[[Classic Rock (magazine)|Classic Rock]] #94|date=July 2006|page=43}}</ref>
