Episode 71 - Guns N' Roses "Appetite for Destruction"
Guns N' Roses is who we've decided to cover for our seventh full studio album discography analysis. Episode 71 covers GNR's 1987 landmark debut album Appetite for Destruction. The album was released to little mainstream attention in 1987. It was not until the following year that it became a massive commercial success, after the band had toured and received airplay with the singles "Welcome to the Jungle", "Paradise City" and "Sweet Child o' Mine". It topped the Billboard 200 and became the best-selling debut album of all time, as well as the seventh best-selling album of all time in the United States. With over 30 million copies sold worldwide, it is also one of the best-selling records of all time. Mark, Kevin, Alex, and Chris take you on a historical journey surrounding the album as well as share our favorites and not-so favorites from the record. We go on a deep dive track-by-track listen of Appetite as well as share personal stories of discovering GNR's "Appetite for Destruction." Tune in next week for Episode 72 as we cover GNR's second studio album, 1988's G N' R Lies.
