In 1985, few bands were bigger than Guns N' Roses. This LA hair metal quartet blasted onto the Sunset Strip with the serpentine dance moves of frontman Axl Rose front and center. With his incredible range and the unmatched guitar riffs of axe master Slash, Guns N' Roses became a club fixture and, eventually, a worldwide phenomenon when Appetite for Destruction became the bestselling US debut album of all time in 1987. This record featured the singles "Paradise City," "Welcome to the Jungle" and the Billboard Hot 100 hit "Sweet Child O' Mine." In 1988, they released GNR Lies, featuring the top-5 hit "Patience." The 1991 follow-up was a never-before-attempted feat - two albums, Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II, released on the same day. The occasion was marked with several expensive music video productions and a world tour that lasted from 1991 to 1993.

The Road to Modern GNR

Guns N' Roses was known in its heyday for unbelievable live shows. Beset by Rose's personal chaos and a drug-fueled lifestyle that earned them the moniker the Most Dangerous Band in the World, the band released an album of covers in 1993, The Spaghetti Incident?, before Slash and bassist Duff McKagen left the band. After years of legal battles, Rose carried on the GNR name alone and went on to make Chinese Democracy, the most expensive rock album of all time. After feuding with Rose for decades, Slash and McKagen returned to the band in 2016 for the Not in This Lifetime Tour, which also featured keyboardist Dizzy Reed, guitarist Richard Fortus, drummer Frank Ferrer and keyboardist Melissa Reese. The reunion of the three key members of this legendary rock band became the second highest-grossing tour of all time.
