Here’s a baker’s dozen of Guns N’ Roses’ most explosive and memorable music videos from 1987 to 1993, and what a lesson they provide in the early evolution of visual style on MTV. Looking back, it seems Guns N’ Roses embraced almost every “type” of music-video setting: “Welcome to the Jungle,” for instance, finds rapid images of the band’s stage performance interspersed with a semi-narrative… More >>

Guns N’ Roses – Welcome to the Videos
Holy cow!!! This video not only offended me, it made me question my sanity. Is it me, or are these guys wearing wigs??? Not only that, but these guys have paintings all over their skin. What’s up with that, Jack? I had the unfortunate pleasure of watching this “video” at the breakfast table with my children. My two boys were just as confused as me. All I could say was, “Boys, finish your pancakes, we have a nasty review to write”. And that is what I am presently doing. I give this video 1 star for the simple reason that there was no option for 0 stars. To anyone that might have enjoyed this freak show, I say, SHAME ON YOU!!!!

Oh we remember it well, the day ‘Appetite for Destruction’ was released. Everyone everywhere thought Guns n Roses would be long lasting like Aerosmith or the Rolling Stones. We can only look back now and laugh (or cry). For a band that had so much potential, everything went wrong. They were possibly the last band that had a shot of having a thirty year career. This DVD shows all the videos this band made during their all too brief existance.
The problem is, the videos are in chronological order. Is this a bad thing? For Guns n Roses it is. When a band releases a debut album that they can never live up to, and you see rotating band members, and Axl getting sillier and weirder, the interest in this collection wanes as the songs go on.
The first three, Welcome to the Jungle, Sweet Child O’ Mine, and Paradise City show the classic lineup, the best the band ever had to offer. Then we get Patience. An accustic number that Guns released to appease fans that were anxiously waiting for ‘Appetite II”. Well from here on out we get the Illusion videos. New drummer (what is he like 50 years old?), new guitar player, keyboardist (who the hell are these people?) Anyway, for what it’s worth, you can watch a band explode onto the rock scene and then go out with a whimper.

I’ve never believed that I’d ever be let down by my life-time gods and luckily had the chance to have that patience they were once singin’ about. So, maybe that is not really a farewell but a little more time out. This video includes all the video-clips they have put out from the start. A true candidate who doesn’t want to miss the last train to the paradise city, still has the chance to find the golden ticket…
