Bon Jovi to write new songs for hits set

With Bon Jovi's latest world tour completed, guitarist Richie Sambora says the New Jersey rockers are looking ahead to plenty of new projects, Reuters informs.

"We've been filming a documentary and are in the process of mixing a live DVD of last year's 'Lost Highway' concert tour. Also, I think we're looking at doing a greatest hits album next year. Jon (Bon Jovi) and I are writing some new songs for it and to just load up for the next Bon Jovi record," Sambora said.

Bon Jovi's last hits set, the 14-track "Cross Road," came out in 1994.

Sambora expected the DVD and latest best-of effort to come out next fall. The Nashville-tinged "Lost Highway" was a critical and commercial success, but Sambora said the band won't necessarily return to that style again.

Outside of Bon Jovi, Sambora is staying active with various extracurricular opportunities. He recently joined B.B. King on stage in Chicago for the taping of a PBS special, and took part in a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum tribute concert for guitar icon Les Paul last Saturday in Cleveland.
