Guns N' Roses - Appetite for Democracy
Biography: Guns N' Roses is an American hard rock band, formed in Los Angeles,
California, in 1985. The classic lineup, as signed to Geffen Records in
1986, consisted of vocalist Axl Rose, lead guitarist Slash, rhythm
guitarist Izzy Stradlin, bassist Duff McKagan, and drummer Steven Adler.
Today, Axl Rose is the only remaining original member, in a lineup that
comprises Use Your Illusion–era keyboardist Dizzy Reed, lead guitarists
DJ Ashba and Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal, lead and rhythm guitarist Richard
Fortus, bassist Tommy Stinson, drummer Frank Ferrer and keyboardist
Chris Pitman. The band has released six studio albums, accumulating
sales of more than 100 million albums worldwide, including shipments of
45 million in the United States.
A year after its release, Guns N' Roses' debut album Appetite for
Destruction (1987) reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200, on the strength
of the hit "Sweet Child o' Mine", their only single to reach No. 1 on
the Billboard Hot 100. The album has sold in excess of 28 million copies
worldwide, including 18 million units sold in the United States, making
it the best-selling debut album of all time in the U.S. The success of
their debut was followed by the eight-song album G N' R Lies (1988). The
twin albums Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II (1991) debuted
at No. 2 and No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and have sold a combined 35
million copies worldwide, including 14 million units sold in the United
States alone. The cover album "The Spaghetti Incident?" (1993) was the
band's last studio album to feature Slash and McKagan. After more than a
decade of work and many lineup changes, Guns N' Roses released the
long-awaited album Chinese Democracy (2008) which, at an estimated
fourteen million dollars in production costs, made it the most expensive
album to ever be produced in music history. It debuted at No. 3 on the
Billboard 200 but underwhelmed industry expectations, despite mostly
positive critical reception.
Guns N' Roses have been credited with reviving the mainstream popularity
of rock 'n' roll, at a time when popular music was dominated by dance
music and pop metal. Their late 1980s and early 1990s years have been
described as the period in which they brought forth a "hedonistic
rebelliousness" reminiscent of the early Rolling Stones, a reputation
that had earned them the nickname "The Most Dangerous Band in the
World". The band's classic lineup, along with later members Reed and
drummer Matt Sorum, were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in
2012, their first year of eligibility.
Info: The show was filmed at The Hard Rock Casino, Las Vegas on November 21,
2012 during the "Appetite For Democracy" tour in celebration of
twenty-five years of "Appetite For Destruction" and four years of
"Chinese Democracy".
