GUNS N' ROSES - USE YOUR ILLUSION I (180g IMPORT 2LP)

Guns N' Roses Use Your Illusion I on 180g Import Vinyl 2LP Set

1991 Masterwork Finally Back on LP

Drum, Guitar Sound Is Stunning

Part one of Guns N' Roses' ambitious third album stays closer to the band's bluesy hard-rock roots and it is largely considered the better of the two-part release. Use Your Illusion I scored three Top 40 hits with the Wings cover "Live and Let Die," the piano-driven, romantic epic "November Rain," and 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."

"If it was just down to riffs, hooks and body-slam sonics, loving Use Your Illusion I (by itself the equivalent of a double LP) would be no problem. Imagine Exile on Main Street's epic grunge, the shotgun eclecticism of the Beatles' White Album and the lunatic pagan sport of Alice Cooper's Love It to Death and Killer albums (Alice himself pops up on one track), all whipped together with the junkyard grace of Rocks-era Aerosmith. That breathless Exile feeling is especially ripe on rockers like "Right Next Door to Hell" and "Perfect Crime," in which you can barely make sense of Rose's rapid-fire yelp over the molten guitar soup of Slash and Stradlin." --David Fricke, Rolling Stone, October 1991
