Guns N' Roses Summary

Guns N' Roses: The Life and Times of a Rock 'n' Roll Band by Paul Elliott

Guns N' Roses emerged from Los Angeles in the 1980s with a reputation for hard-hitting music and a riotous rock 'n' roll lifestyle that earned them the title of The Most Dangerous Band in the World.

Their first album, 1987's Appetite For Destruction, took the music industry by storm, becoming the biggest selling debut in the history of American music. Since then, rock writer Paul Elliott has interviewed the band many times, and he brings real insight to this updated exploration of the group; its music; its success; its struggles.

With more than 200 stunning colour photographs from the band's 40-year career, this comprehensive biography is the complete, incredible story of one of the hardest-rocking bands in music history.

Guns N' Roses Reviews

'...labour of love comprehensiveness... as colourful and essential as the riff to Welcome To The Jungle... You're gonna buy!' * Kerrang! *
'Lavishly illustrated... sharply written... an insightful cautionary tale. 4 Stars' * Planet Rock *
'Elliott was the first UK writer to interview the band and had extensive contact with them, and the equally intimate collection of photographs that make this coffee table tome accessible and beautiful to look at... Elliott's infectious enthusiasm will make you wish you were back there, and anyone who can make a reader pine for the '80s is an amazing writer.' * Muso's Guide *
' [a] handsome, hefty, beautifully designed, vinyl-sized book...it's still a hell of a journey.' * Classic Rock *
"Readable...and definitely gets under the skin of the band." * Mass Movement *
"For me, the main appeal was the umber and the quality of the hundreds of photos that feature on every page, every bit as colourful as the band's life, which will satisfy every G'n'R fan." * The Beat *
