VIDEO THRWBCK: Guns 'N Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine (1988)
If you didn't hear, this week some guy who really likes football jerseys, boot cut jeans and hair braids who used to be a badass rock singer released an album called Chinese Democracy under the name Guns 'N Roses. And, yes, it took him seventeen years. I think it's pretty safe to say that whoever is on that record (we're guessing upwards of like fifty musicians, most of them uncredited because their parts are probably like a decade old) they are still not really "Guns N' Roses" since Duff, Slash, and Izzy aren't involved. Gilby Clarke is more of a member of Guns N' Roses than these guys are. Here's the band in better times (sort of). At least it's nice to see footage of Steven Adler where he doesn't look like a shriveled gollum (we see you Dr. Drew. You do good things.) Also: the other record that came out this week from an arrogant one-man-show is way better.
