Also, Vernon pops up for the first part of his Tracks Of My Years conversation with the legendary Jon Bon Jovi.

As the frontman of Bon Jovi, Jon is a Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Inductee, Grammy Award Winner, Golden Globe Award Winner and Songwriter Hall Of Fame inductee. Since Bon Jovi formed in New Jersey in 1983, they have released 16 sixteen studio albums, selling more than 130 million albums worldwide.

The band have just re-imagined their latest album, Forever, in a new version called Forever (Legendary Edition), featuring a collection of famous friends, including Robbie Williams, Avril Lavigne, Ryan Tedder, Bruce Springsteen and more. In recent years, Jon has been unable to perform whilst recovering from surgery for an atrophied vocal cord. Until earlier this year, they hadn't performed since 2022, but next year will see them return to the UK for the first time since 2019.
