Guns N' Roses' career could be neatly summed up in a lyric from their song "Pretty Tied Up": "I just found a million dollars that someone else forgot." Indeed, GNR satisfied a grassroots public hunger for bigger-than-life hard rock at a time when legions of alternative bands were enjoying their first burst of overweening critical attention and commercial cachet. The last and most spectacularly successful band to prosper from Hollywood's burgeoning 1980s Sunset Strip glam-metal scene wrapped a couple decade's worth of sometimes tired clichés around a tight, assaultive musical attack that enticed millions yearning for poor role models. And if their edgy songs often blurred fantasy and reality, the best of them had a street-level honesty that couldn't be denied. A de facto greatest-hits collection culled from performances recorded around the world, Live Era best documents the early, ferocious performing prime of GNR's original quintet on its first disc, leaning heavily on their landmark Appetite for Destruction album to great effect. But the second volume often chronicles the band's steady decline into bloated self-parody and neo-Vegas "professionalism." This band needs a horn section like Slash needs another drink! --Jerry McCulley

 From Nightrain to Paradise City it Rocks January 30, 2010
MRT
This album is perfect! From Nightrain to Paradise City it rocks. The true masterpieces on this album are November Rain, Patience, Rocket Queen and of course Sweet Child O Mine. Welcome to the Jungle and Paradise City are rocking tracks that just plain rock . My favorite tracks on this album are Move To The City and Knockin' On Heavens Door.This live album really epitomises what Guns N Roses are (or were) about.

A great live double-CD. When I listen to this I'm transported back to 1990 in the Citrus Bowl in Orlando seeing this great band at its peak.
The live version of "You're Crazy" is just as I remember it - not as fast as it was on "Appetite" and not as slow as it was on "Lies." A fantastic, bluesy, somewhere in between.
"You Could Be Mine" is another highlight as is, of course, "Paradise City."
If you don't like this recording, you don't like GNR.

About "Chinese Democracy" December 10, 2008

Slash is my guitar hero of all time. Unexpectedly Buckethead is just as great as he is, or even better. Try one of Buckethead's albums, you will fall in love with and finally get addicted to his underestimated talent. Buckethead can play any style as well as guitar god Jeff Beck. "Chinese Democracy" is definitely the best rock album since 1991. It got what the other great rock bands like Metallica, AC/DC, etc. are always missing: beautiful melodies. In fact, Axl's new album is way way better than any Slash or Duff's solo projects. If your religion is rock music, then Axl Rose is your God and his albums is your Bible. Buy more copies of this masterpiece for your family and friends to do them a huge favor!
Showing GNR Live and Raw November 30, 2008

Filled with roaring crowds and ear shattering drums and guitar and vocals you cannot miss this album. Starting out with a nice version of Nightrain with an announcer ranting, "You wanted the best but you didnt get it so heres what you get from hollywood GUNS AND ROSES!!!!", Then the band launches off and the rest is history. The beat just keeps going on and after you listen too this album you will find yourself listening too it again and again. Live Era 87-93 contains all of GNR's best songs and is like there best of except live. Buy today
