Slash is phenomenal. Sadly, Izzy never got the credit he deserved for being a great rhythm guitarist. Thankfully Slash always acknowledged him.
In my humble opinion, Izzy has always received the credit he deserves. He is still loved & appreciated by many, despite having walked away from the band, in 1991.
@@kerenolivero7097 Fans, Metalheads and fellow Hard Rock & Metal musicians alike will always praise and give Izzy the credit he so richly deserves. But I remember the Metal magazines of the 1980s. Circus, RIP, Metal Edge, Rock Beat and even Rolling Stone rarely, if ever, mentioned Izzy. It was the same on MTV.
1000%
To make things even worse Izzy is a real nice guy, a proper genuine person...no star-worship wanted or needed. Happy being remembered for what he did. X
I guess no one has heard of world class guitarist STEVE ROTHERY from MARRILION...Try the albums "Misplaced childhood" & "A script for a jesters tear"🤔.
80's was the music era. Proud to be of that era😊😊
🤘🤘
Late 70s, early 80s was the best!
I grew up in the 80s and there was a lot of trash.
The highs were high but hair metal was terrible.
GnR is not a hair metal band though.
70s & 90s > 80s overall.
I said what I said!
@@johnohrstrom5112 Each decade has a lot of trash. The 70s produced a genre so hated that it accumulated into a demolition night, while the 90s gave way to boy band dominance. Compared to those two, hair metal would seem like it came from Mozart.
90’s blew the 80’s out the door and out on the streets!!!!
The only channel smart enough to do the song as we remember it! This is why yall rock!.. Thanks guys! FUN FACT..Slash got solo of the year in 87or 88 for this song!
Epic guitar 🎸 work from Slash🎩A modern day Jimi Hendrix🎸🙏
😂 That's how we like it too!
@@barsandbarbells2022 Your trivia for the day; the "sweet child" that Axl wrote the lyrics for was his then girlfriend and future wife Erin Everly, daughter of Don Everly of the Everly Brothers. She is in the video.
Axel's voice and Slash's guitar playing harmonize so perfectly together. Unique
It’s criminal to ever cut a Slash solo. Whoever made that decision deserves jail time 😉🤪😊
Knocking on Heaven’s door live from the Freddie Mercury tribute concert 🔥
I love the commercial with Slash auditioning for a little band with this intro 😂😂😂
I rarely even notice what the bass is doing but Duff's bass line on this makes it so much better!!!
The entire album rocks. Not a bad track on it.
Most definitely!!! this is one of those rare albums that you can pop in the CD player in the car while on a road trip and never once consider hitting the skip function. One of the top 10 albums of the 80's and one of the best debut albums of all time.
@@Impalaman1968 fully agree. Boston, Van Halen and Black Sabbath also have 10/10 debuts
@@princeofpcos9804 100% AGREED!
If you like Guns N'Roses albums, you also should try to listen music from Hurricane. I suggest you the album Slave To The Thrill.
Slash is just unreal. He’s so great at phrasing, building tension, working towards that explosive FIRE crescendo, etc. Amazing.
Add to that his tone and how it sits in the mix. He uses the bass pickup to start to create that “full & round” sound, then switches to the treble pickup and gets that amazing, cutting tone. Just brilliant.
Sweet Child, Paradise City, and Welcome to the Jungle are all from the same album “Appetite for Destruction” (1987; their first album & the best-selling debut album of all time) & November Rain is from the album “Use Your Illusion I” (1991).
Completely agree with you about Slash🎩 An epic guitar player 🎸in the mold of Jimi Hendrix and Jimmy Page.I don’t know why but I could imagine Hendrix playing this riff.I can just see it.🙏
I think Archer is much better at phrasing than Slash
For sure, a legend and a half already, and a seemingly cool guy to boot. One of my favorite "drinking quotes" is from him. He said SOMETHING like: "I'm an alcoholic only in the sense that I have to have drinks on a regular basis or I start shaking and shit." LOL I think he's clean and sober now.
I've been Watching several reaction videos of guns and roses and I'm really noticing how much Duff McCagin is just killing it on Bass !! Also the brilliance of Steven Adler on drums !!
Not only one of the greatest debut albums of all-time, but one of the greatest Rock albums of all-time as well.
It’s been said this album was recorded live and then cleaned up. So they all played together when recorded. That’s what’s amazing.
I think patience is the song they play live in studio
That’s what REAL bands do….Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers made EVERY record with all of them playong live in the same studio
Uh that's just false. You're mixing up your facts.
This was arguably the best song of the 80s. The intro is absolutely iconic. The first CD I ever purchased.
I grew up in the 80s. This was one of my first albums, too. I remember how excited this album made me for subsequent albums like Use Your Illusion I & II.
The best song you almost never heard. Welcome to the Jungle was released as a single in 1987 and MTV/radio blacklisted GNR. About a year later Geffin Records had stopped promoting the album completely when GNRs manager begged David Geffin to call in a favor at MTV. They agreed to play it ONCE after midnight on a Sunday. MTV was inundated with requests and that's the how legends are made.
They played it at 4 am and the manager had so many calls in that it blew up his switchboard lol
This is one of the most iconic and greatest songs ever made. Nobody doesnt like this song from teenagers to grown folk
Well as for grown up folks, this was from our day, one of the anthems and soundtracks from our lives in the 80s
Absolutely Amazing Song. The Band is in Top Form and On Fire. From the Legendary Debut Album Appetite For Destruction which is Filled with Great Great Songs. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
My son taught himself to play guitar when he was 15 (hes 28 now) and this was the first song he learned. I made it my ringtone for his number and even after all these years, I still love this song. You two have become my favorite reactors 😊
nice reaction... i agree with why you listened to the long audio only version first but be sure to watch the official video also. it created this initial really cool impression of guns-n-roses that is still with me today... the way axel rose dances around the mic when vocals begin and the overall aesthetic, vibe, etc of the band. "patience" is another hit that shows a completely more down to earth side of the band... enjoy! 😎
This whole album was amazing cover to cover. Guns n roses with appetite for destruction basically saved the 80s from aqua net and spandex.
Guns 'N Roses is definitely an iconic band!!!👍😱🤯🤘 80's rock and heavy metal bands were so amazing!!!🤯🤯🤯 So glad I grew up in that era!!!👍👍👍 Great reaction, loved it!!!❤️❤️❤️
Rock it guys! You are starting to get in a groove. Don’t forget to do a Motley Crue deep dive. Motley took Guns and Roses on their first tour. Both legendary bands from the day 🔥🔥🔥
The speed he was playing each note without slurring or stumbling over his own fingers in Paradise City was phenomenal. There’s a reason why so many great guitar players give Slash mad respect
Slash is my favorite guitarrist, because he has a way of combine his mad skills on the guitar with the vocal parts of the song, and when it comes to his instrumental work, it just makes sense. He plays like this not to show off, but to connect to the song itself. Great reaction and cheers from Brazil, folks.
The vocals at the end just take such a great distorted turn.
Highly recommend you watch the two songs they performed live at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert. As a long time fan this remains my favourite live performance. Paradise City and Knockin’ on Heavens Door.
This has been my alarm for over 30 years.
Every time it would come on the radio or something my kids would say “Dad, your alarms going off”
Patience is another great song from them. Great song
In the summer of 1988 this album was played everywhere you went and at all times of day and night. It took over the USA.
Listening to this song is just like riding a roller coaster! I love it!
This song was written by Axl about his girlfriend at the time - Erin Everly (daughter of Don Everly from the band The Everly Brothers).
Night Train! You need to do that one, his best voice performance in my opinion.
In Mar 88, my 1st daughter was born in June of that year, I was in basic training. This song came out & was definitely blaring every chance I got. This song & pictures of her got me thru. To this day, everytime I hear it played...I text her an "I Love You" as it is our song.
Saw GnR live at the Houston Astrodome in 1992--it was epic. I don't think any show could ever top it.
The opening riff was came across by accident. Its the finger exercise slash did for warm-ups
Appreciate for Destruction is one one the Greatest of all time hands down
This song is so iconic ! And the solo one of the best of Slash
For me this is their best song. It is difficult to fault from beginning to end and it has an innocence and simplicity about it. Awesome lyrics too. Great guitar solo and tone. Rhythm guitar is spot on. Great hook. Very strong track.
Was so great growing up while every bar band was covering these songs in the early 90s. I was in college. Heading out on Friday for the concert at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, can't wait to see how they sound these days. Love me some Slash!
Just yesterday we used a slower version for our father / daughter dance at her wedding, it was great.
One of the best debut albums ever released! Great reaction! One of my favourites from the album is 'Nightrain'.
all time classic! ♥
Have been at the GNR concert in Budapest 3 or 4 weeks ago. It was amaizing. Still a 3 hour + show. Axl voice is not what it was once but they still deliver an awesome performance.
great band for me in the late 80's 90's
My fav guns n roses track is Estranged , saw the Use Your Illusions Tour in Paris , and Estranged blew my mind
I needed that!!! Great reaction! You two Rock! 👍❤
Now that you've heard the rockin' songs, check out Patience, arguably the best ballad of the 80s.
My favourite band & my favourite song. In my will to be played at my funeral
so many people throw disdain at gnr, but if you actually listen to the lyrics and musical structure, you can not deny the talent :) big love to all people :)
That opening riff by Slash is a real finger twister! He was using it as a fingering exercise when Axle heard him from the upstairs. Axle came down stairs, listened to it some more and said "I think there is a song there!" I have heard many of accomplished guitarist play that riff but nobody, NOBODY comes close to playing it as smooth and effortless as Slash! Nobody! Almost sounds mechanical he is so perfect!
I still can’t understand how even people this age haven’t ever heard this song before ?🤔
Very true, slash is iconic, superb phrasing and love his tone, as indeed axl is and rest of gnr. The last great rock n roll band
I didn't really listen to music until I was like 16 but when I did start I discovered I liked all the stuff my older sister listened to when I was growing up, especially this album.
Guns n roses "you Could be mine" - soundtrack from the movie Terminator 2. from the album ,, Use Your Illusion II ,, 1991 . be sure to rate
This song was originally created when Slash was playing his guitar on the sidelines of rehearsals without Slash's knowledge. Axl was listening to this simple session while writing a poem for his girlfriend Erin Everly.
great info
@@charliegeorge9393 Thanks, this song was originally a poem that was considered ridiculous by all members
Legend has it that little riff used as the intro - & revisited throughout - was just a little finger warm up Slash came up with for himself. The rest of the band heard it & decided it was too good to be ignored. & Duff gets nowhere near the love & respect his Bass deserves.
This album dropped during my truck driving days. We took loads of meat to FL then produce or fancy plants back to the Midwest. I remember this was the second song from the album I heard. Paradise City was the first. Heard it on the radio heading down the turnpike in FL. It was my first run solo. A few hours later Sweet child played. The next stop I made for fuel, etc. I snagged the cassette.
Just stumbled across your channel yesterday. Really enjoying going back thru and watching a lot of your previous content.
Ok you can always tell when Sam is into a song..what a smile. 😀
Still my favorite solo ever, Tornado of Souls comes really close but don't know, this one has a really special place in my heart
“Patience” is a MUST listen
I read somewhere that they had no ending for the song so thats why he just sings 'where do we go' over and over
All genres of music across the board during the 80s and 90s was fire. From rock, metal, rap and even to house and techno. Everything sounded so good. I love guns n roses.
Finally someone doing a music listening on youtube commenting also the music, layers, composition and not only the lyrics.
...Class of 76"...Every Friday and Saturday nights across America small bands were closing the night with a guitar solo of this... and many still do while the crowds go wild...
Every band has a stand out song, for me, this is GNR best ... and you're right, it's 🔥🔥
So many metal guitar players do a bunch of scales as fast as they can but with no soul. Slash plays melodies with SOUL and intertwines them to perfection. Even when he's shredding, it's a melody played really fast. One of the all time greats. This, coming from a 72 year old Hendrix devotee. ☺✌💛, PJ
I'm so glad I grew up with this music ❤ best time in history for music in my humble opinion
That and the seventies before them . The 70's inspired GNR to be who they became
This is a first proper reaction to this song on UA-cam,and i salute you for that.
Cheers from Croatia ❤️🎉
I love Sam's stank face when she start feeling it.
one of the truly great "rocker" songs of all time!!!
Stunning song from my favourite band, saw them live in London last year, bucket list occasion
Great reaction! Slash is my 1st ❤️ I can still remember the night I first saw there video and I was done for. 😎🎩🎸
Whatever Adler put in that snare always gives me ear candy. Love how the snares sounds on all the tracks on afd album
So, the more I watch your videos the more I enjoy your reactions. G-N-R was a huge band when I was growing up.
Absolutely my favorite
It was so awesome for Axl Rose to stand up for his band-mate Slash. These guys were like true brothers.
Such a fun bass line!
Patience is an amazing song too.
Oh, we knew how great the songs on this album were! 💚🤙
One of the best songs ever
Axl not only has Perfect true and absolute pitch he also has a range spanning 5 octaves. Combined with Slash’ amazing guitar playing and you have a veritable infinite range of notes and tones to convey whatever message and emotions you want
this song has the greatest guitar play.
Check out "Mr.Brownstone" (original version) also off this same album. Their Nazareth cover of "Hair of the Dog" is also epic and worth reacting to as well.
Yes Hair of the Dog
Always great!!!
Axl's tone and phrasing toward the end of the tune is like a feedback driven electric guitar.
You guys have no idea what it was like when this song came out in '87. It was INSANE. It played everywhere. MTV had it on hourly rotation -- back when MTV was cool and actually played music videos. Every car that drove by was bumping it. It was a massive, massive hit. I miss the 80s.
Another 'fun fact's of this song,..Slash & Steven Adler we're drinking and Slash was just making funny faces while playing the lik and Axl heard it,came back 20 minutes later with all those magnificent lyrics. The rest is history 😅
I like yours reactions waiting more Gun's n Roses 🔥🔥🔥👍
Oliver Anthony "Rich Men North of Richmond". You will not be sorry!! It's total 🔥🔥!!!
Saw them.....They are great.....Slash is outstanding
I will always believe GNR is a band best served live. Axl's onstage performance is amazing and Slash thrives when he is turned loose on his solo's....
Love to hear, The Jam " Going Underground "
The only comment I have about cutting down a song is that if they can play all of Bohemian Rhapsody, then they can play all of any song.
Yes, with the exception of November Rain, all three songs are from their debut album Appetite for Destruction. I don't think you can fully appreciate this album unless you were aware of it when it came out. You won't find a bigger David Lee Roth era Van Halen fan then me, but when this album came out, I was literally blown away. Heavy guitars, full bass, killer drums and this ginger haired skinny dude with tatts singing in a way I'd never heard before. I mean who opens the first song on their debut album with a war cry long ass scream? Axel Rose from Gus -N - Roses. Talk about grabbing your attention. The whole album is just fire. There's a reason it's the fastest selling debut album of all time. But it's every member of the band. Axel Rose, Slash, Duff McKagan (I highly recommend his book "It's so easy and other lies"), Izzy Stradlin, and Steven Adler, that gets the credit. Having said that if you really want to appreciate Slash's playing, listen or better yet react to "Anastasia" from his solo Apocalyptic Love album.
Sorry this was so long. The 80's were really the best time to grow up. We simply had the best music.
p.s. a note on the "where do we go?" lyrics. Axel simply couldn't think of anything to write. So, he asked the band where do we go from here? Then just decided to use that as the rest of the song. At least that's my understanding of it.
Okay. Now I'm done. I promise.
I heard “Appetite for Destruction” for the first time in 2022 (I have it on CD), and was blown away almost instantly from the first track onward.
Glad you listened to the full 6 minute version - the music video cuts a good 40 odd seconds from the song
suggesting brett young lady. great song. you guys will love it. so sweet.
If “appetite “ was the only album they ever released they would still belong in the R and R hall of fame!!
Axl said one of his fave activities was just sitting & listening to Slash play. Thanks for your reaction.
As other have said when this band was firing on all cylinders they were untouchable there is a reason why they the were the best band in the world for a few years.
You'll love Mr Brownstone and I Used to Love Her... Don't Cry...etc etc. So much good stuff from them
I remember getting this cassette as a teen, when it came out and wore it out. What an amazing album.
