Guns N’ Roses — Use Your Illusion I (2-LP)

Regular price $34.95

Remastered Double Vinyl LP

Use Your Illusion I was originally released in 1991, four years after GNR’s seminal debut, Appetite For Destruction. Thanks to a reckless approach toward life and music, GNR was constantly at the center of controversy — much of it chronicled on this two-volume project. Illusion I found Axl Rose ranting on songs about being sued by a neighbor (“Right Next Door To Hell”), dysfunctional relationships (“Back Off Bitch”) and a drug overdose (“Coma”). Amid all the spewed bile, GNR scored three Top 40 hits with a Wings cover (“Live And Let Die”), a piano-driven, Elton John-flavored epic (“November Rain”) and a hard-edged ballad (“Don’t Cry”). Celebrity cameos include a then-unknown Shannon Hoon, Hanoi Rocks’ Mike Monroe, and Alice Cooper, who makes a particularly sinister contribution to “The Garden.”

The newer edition is remastered from high-resolution 96kHz 24-bit transfers from the original stereo ½-inch analog master tapes. Includes “November Rain” performed with a 50-piece orchestra for the first time ever — newly recorded, conducted and arranged by Grammy-winning composer Christopher Lennertz. Packaged in gatefold jacket with 12" x 12" insert.
