SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 2:34 MIN.
This poetic ballad is among the ‘inspired-by’ tracks appearing on Jon Bon Jovi’s 1990 Blaze of Glory soundtrack for the Young Guns II movie.
REVIEW:
It’s a shame that the track doesn’t actually appear in the film, as “Blood Money” offers classy depth re: the crumbling friendship between Emilio Estevez’s ‘Billy the Kid’ and William L. Petersen’s ‘Pat Garrett.’ As a welcome contrast to the album’s flashier rock songs, this underrated tune is well-played by Jon Bon Jovi.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 7½ Stars
