Use Your Illusion 1

Description

Part one of Guns N Roses ambitious third album stays closer to the bands 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, Elton John-flavored epic November Rain and the hard-edged ballad Dont 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.
