Guns
N´Roses took the music scene by storm in the ´80s with
their wild image, irreverent attitudes and a musical
repertoire that covered all points of the compass, attracting
rockers as well as pop music fans and starry eyed adolescents.
Their legacy and influence is indisputable. Family Tree
is an impressive album, that the original group itself
may never have imagined. With dramatic graphic presentation
and remasterized sound, Family Tree presents 24 tracks
over the course of 2 CDs and that cover the innumerous
projects that the members of the band undertook beyond
the group itself. We find gems such as Hollywood Rose
(Axl Rose´s first band, along with Tracii Guns), the
LA Guns (the band Tracii formed after leaving Hollywood
Rose) and Gilby Clark accompanied by visionaries such
as the singer of Quiet Riot or Ratt, or Slash playing
impressive duets with Roger Daltrey (The Who) or Tommy
Shaw (Styx) as well as bassist Duff McKegan playing
alongside members of the The Cult and Sex Pistols.
As if all of these gems weren´t enough, Family Tree
includes an unknown version of Nice Boys in the hands
of the original GNR members. In short, a must have for
any true fan of this legendary group! |
