My most played album #375. Guns And Roses - Use Your Illusion 1. 7 times platinum, released on the same day as Use Your Illusion 2. The band only released 2 albums up to this point then released 2 albums in one day both double length. (the equivalent of 4 albums). I'm still surprised a record executive or two did jump off a bridge during this week in 1991! Best songs "November Rain", "Back Off Bitch", "Right Next Door to Hell". A great cover of Paul McCartney’s "Live and Let Die". Don’t miss Alice Cooper on "The Garden". Great songs "Dust N' Bones", "Don't Cry", "Perfect Crime", "Double Talkin' Jive", "Garden of Eden" and "Coma".

Album of the day #3. Guns N' Roses - Appetite For Destruction
Guns N' Roses' "Appetite for Destruction" is an iconic debut album that combines hard rock, punk and glam metal in an original way.
