RussTCB Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Content to save a click:Guns N’ Roses: 15 Obscure Tracks You’ve Probably Never HeardAnd you thought they only had four classic albums worth of content.With a revolving door approach to membership from the very beginning (founding member and namesake Tracii Guns didn’t even make it onto the band’s first studio album, nor did bassist Ole Beich), lawsuits, wild drug-fueled lifestyles, and conflicts between bandmates, Guns N’ Roses are simultaneously one of the biggest bands from the late 80s/early 90s, and one of the most frustrating. As a result, despite selling millions of albums, the band’s output was sporadic at best. Further complicating matters was the fact that the band often spent years working on songs. Tracks like Don’t Cry and November Rain, for example, were started in the mid-80s, but not released until early in the next decade, and other tracks followed the same path to release. After the implosion of multiple line-ups of the band (the founding line-up, the Appetite for Destruction line-up, and the Use Your Illusion line-up and touring line-up), this process slowed even further. Songs such as This I Love, talked about by the band following the release of the Illusion albums in 1991, didn’t see the light of day until the late aughts. With so few albums for a band of its tenure, and such a convoluted recording process, there’s a fair bit of unreleased material out there, some heard, some still locked away. So lets head back into the jungle on our way to Paradise City and explore fifteen obscure Guns N’ Roses tracks you’ve (probably) never heard.15 Shadow Of Your Love14 Heartbreak Hotel13 Oh My God12 Silkworms11 Bring It Back Home10 Jumpin' Jack Flash09 Whole Lotta Rosie08 Cornshucker07 Too Much Too Soon06 Sentimental Movie05 Checkmate04 Just Another Sunday03 Crash Diet02 Ain't Going Down01 Going Down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
