She became "good" to listen to for me during her late eighties early nineties period. Nineteenth Cher album "Living Proof (Deluxe Edition) (2001). Well, another dance-track album mostly.

Rushmoras August 25 Share August 25 So, started Ritchie Samborra's discography. First album "Stranger in this Town (Extended Edition)" (1991). Pure blues-rock album through and through, ballads upon ballads. While listening to it, I remembered the same criticism I had with Iron Maiden, whereas with Iron Maiden I disliked their over-played choruses where they repeat two lines in a row for 5 minutes straight it seems, here, Ritchie overplays his solos to the point that I'm just no longer invested in the song. Still, as his solo album outside from Bon Jovi band, pretty neat. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18502-so-what-are-you-listening-to/page/42/#findComment-8441972
Rushmoras August 26 Share August 26 Second Richie Sambora album "Undiscovered Soul" (1998). More of the same as the first one, except that all the songs are even slower. You know, I think I know why he never took of in his solo career - outside a couple of songs, he sounds very dull and monotonic. 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18502-so-what-are-you-listening-to/page/42/#findComment-8442662
Rushmoras August 27 Share August 27 Last Richie Sambora album "Aftermath of the Lowdown" (2012). I'll be honest, after hearing the first couple of songs, I was very sceptical of this, because, well, first of, in his first song, Richie was mumbling incoherently, and the rest of the songs were kinda wonky, but after Sugar Daddy, the album actually surprised me in a good way. Also, I think I've heard a couple of songs on the album or at least some riffs that he is using, because they were pretty recognizable from somewhere... So, as always, subjective assessments of each album: 1. Stranger in This Town (Expanded Edition) (1991) - 7.3/10 [Best songs: Ballad of Youth; One Light Burning; Rosie; The Answer] 2. Undiscovered Soul (1998) - 7.5/10 [Best songs: Made in America; Fallen From Graceland; If God Was a Woman; In It For Love; Chained; Harlem Rain; Who I Am; Undiscovered Soul] 3. Aftermath of the Lowdown (2012) - 8.2/10 [Best songs: Every Road Leads Home to You; Weathering the Storm; Sugar Daddy; I’ll Always Walk Beside You; Seven Years Gone; Learning How to Fly with a Broken Wing; You Can Only Get so High; World] Average score: 7.7/10 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18502-so-what-are-you-listening-to/page/42/#findComment-8443588

Also, by the end they switch their aggressive tone in vocal delivery to sound pop music as hell :D, sorry, what I meant to say, they went on to emulate other artists.
