The official GNR was awesome thread.

The GNR was awesome thread.

No idea how anyone alive in the late 80's through the mid 90's doesn't like Guns NFN Roses.

I mean just think back to the garbage on the radio prior to GNR... They changed the course of rock history. They did what no one else could, kill the BS rock and hair bands from the 80's.

I will start it off with this gem...

 

Booo...

 

No, no, no.... Slash was awesome.... GNR kinda just sucked.

 

So what were you listening to in the late 80's early 90's? Poison, Winger, Nelson and Mr. Big?

 

Hopefully not George Michael . Millie Vanilli or Boy George

tell the truth Christine this is what you cruised to..........Go-Go's - Our Lips Are Sealed (Extended 12" Version) (Music Video) - YouTube

 

All solid and I like all that you posted... But Metallica "One" was the only 80's song in that list.

 

born in 92 and love GNR but i also love me some journey, REO, styx, oh and not sure when they came around or what the story is but velvet revolver was pretty good just cause slash carried them

 

Aldo Nova....... Aldo Nova - Fantasy - YouTube

Sounded great out blaring out of my alpine stereo and speakers

 

Cemetary Gates was from 1990 which is close enough.... how bout

 

No doubt Slash is great. Too bad he got mixed up with GNR. LOL

 

And last, but certainly not least...



Come at me, bro.

I'm just getting warmed up.

 

Izzy Stradlin, the rhythm and soul of GN'R..



Guns N'Roses - Godfather Theme (Live in Tokyo 92) - YouTube

 

Not many people like this cover (including Slash(, but it's my favorite version of the song:

 

I liked a lot of GNR songs but this remake is my favorite.

GNR was an awesome band. The use your illusion albums were just as good as appetite for destruction. I moved a LOT of iron back in the day listening to GNR & old school Metallica

 

Worst. Thread. Ever.

 

My first cassette tape was Appetite for Destruction. Being seven or eight years old, I'm not sure if that was a good thing or not.

GnR made some great tunes in the late 80's and early to mid 90's, but Axl has made himself into a joke these days.

 

To each his own. I preferred Ozzy, Pantera, and early Metallica.
