Description
The records are in great shape and have only been played once when I bought it in 1999. The outside of the package has a bit of ring wear, but the inside and sleeves are in perfect shape. The spine does have a spot of wear but is mostly good looking. This is a great album, and is rare and out of print. A definite must-have for any fan. Thanks for looking and good luck!
Live Era: '87-'93 is a 4-disc live album by hard rock band Guns N' Roses, released on November 23, 1999. The album was the first official Guns N' Roses release since "The Spaghetti Incident?" in 1993. Former guitarist Slash notes that the album is "not pretty and there are a lot of mistakes, but this is Guns N' Roses, not the fu@#ing Mahavishnu Orchestra. It's as honest as it gets."
The dates and locations of the tracks are not revealed in the liner notes, and are only referred to simply as being "Recorded across the universe between 1987 and 1993". However, the majority of the tracks on the 4 albums are believed to be sourced from the extensive Use Your Illusion Tour of 1991-1993.
Axl Rose is alleged to have communicated with former Guns N' Roses members Slash and Duff McKagan, through intermediaries only, in selecting the track list. In an interview Slash stated that "the live album was one of the easiest projects we all worked on. I didn't actually see Axl, but we communicated via the powers that be."
Matt Sorum, the band's drummer from 1990-1997, and Gilby Clarke, rhythm guitarist in the years 1992-1994, are not credited as band members in the liner notes, but as "additional musicians". It is suspected that both are not credited as "main band members" due to their sour departure from Axl Rose and the band. Original drummer Steven Adler, who plays sporadically on the album, is credited as a "main band member", instead.
This vinyl version of the album contain a rare performance of "Coma", Guns N' Roses' longest song to date.
