73. 'Use Your Illusion I' - Guns N' Roses (1991)

Long Live Rock 'N' Roll

In 1991, Guns N’ Roses brought in a new drummer and keyboard player and, in an ambitious and confident statement to the music world, released ‘Use Your Illusion I & II’ on the same day. Following immense anticipation from the Rock world, ‘Use Your Illusion’ impressively spans multiple styles and genres; including: Rock, Blues, Metal, Punk and Classical elements - veering away from their dedicated, established Hard Rock sound of previous releases.

In this episode, we take a dive into the mindset of GnR with these monumental releases and focus on the first of these two albums and ask if this is Guns N' Roses' most impressive and extensive album!
