Guns N' Roses: 15 Obscure Tracks You've Probably Never Heard

With a revolving door approach to membership from the very beginning (founding member and namesake Tracii Guns didn't even make it onto the band's first studio album, nor did bassist Ole Beich), lawsuits, wild drug-fueled lifestyles, and conflicts between bandmates, Guns N' Roses are simultaneously one of the biggest bands from the late 80s/early 90s, and one of the most frustrating. As a result, despite selling millions of albums, the band's output was sporadic at best. Further complicating matters was the fact that the band often spent years working on songs. Tracks like Don't Cry and November Rain, for example, were started in the mid-80s, but not released until early in the next decade, and other tracks followed the same path to release. After the implosion of multiple line-ups of the band (the founding line-up, the Appetite for Destruction line-up, and the Use Your Illusion line-up and touring line-up), this process slowed even further. Songs such as This I Love, talked about by the band following the release of the Illusion albums in 1991, didn't see the light of day until the late aughts. With so few albums for a band of its tenure, and such a convoluted recording process, there's a fair bit of unreleased material out there, some heard, some still locked away. So lets head back into the jungle on our way to Paradise City and explore fifteen obscure Guns N' Roses tracks you've (probably) never heard.
