@andyshores9391 11 месяцев назад

Worth checking out as a reaction twice - the larger scale performance of this after they released the studio version. This is 1988, but by 1992 it had become something altogether more. Just beautifully fleshed out with gospel style backup singers and keys and you name it. The Freddie mercury tribute concert performance of this is arguably their best performance.

@andrusmotto1257 11 месяцев назад

This one is special because it was MTV I believe and the original 5. Izzy is the forgotten gunner. I agree 1992, Freddie Mercury Tribute is Legendary. Just my respectful opinion I did lose someone and forgotten this gem,back in the day

@brandall101 10 месяцев назад

Bob Dylan wrote this song from perspective of a good police officer dying in the line of duty, talking to his mother. I played it, as he requested, at my brother's funeral, a good, even best police officer, and as an ex-con in for the first and worst, my beloved brother drove me back home from prison, proving how great he was as a police officer.

@throneborn 11 месяцев назад

Axl Rose had so much swag back then. Ahead of his time in the swag game

@purplebeard1526 11 месяцев назад

I loved the GNR version of this song. I think Axl's voice gives the song another dimension. If I am not mistaken, the official video for the song was this live performance. I support more GNR. Some lesser reacted to songs I think are worth your time: Out Ta Get Me, You're Crazy (rock or acoustic), Anything Goes, Used to Love Her, Sorry, Perfect Crime, Don't Damn Me, Bad Apples, Dust N' Bones, Shotgun Blues, and Pretty Tied Up. If you want to hear some more covers by them, I personally think the Spaghetti Incident album is great--its a covers album of theirs ala Metallica's Garage Inc.

At the time of G&Rs zenith I was a tile& marble contractor in So Cal. My helper "Jay" was an identical twin (not related) to Axle Rose and could even sing just like him. Fresh from the Marines I was pretty buffed, flat top haircut & purchased a black "SECURITY" T-shirt and we too a trip to Los Angeles. Dropped off my pickup and had a limo lake us to the sunset strip. Picked a club with a long-line and cut our way to the front where we were shown straight in. Drinks on the house and the ladies.......

@RaiderRoy1020 11 месяцев назад

In my opinion this version is the best one. It blows the album version away. Slash's solo is off the charts. I'd say it's probably the best version I've ever heard. I remember seeing the Live at the Ritz concert on MTV back in the 80's. I found a bootleg cd of the entire concert with some other live stuff on it back in the early 90's. I still have it and listen to this version of "Knockin'" quite often. By the way he says "We got some nakedness here".

@George-kv6gm 11 месяцев назад

Dylan wrote it for the movie Pat Garrett and Biily the Kid. 1973. Dylan released it as a recording after the film opened, was a big hit. Covered a lot of times, but I'd only heard Bob Dylan's version before. Thanks.

@sumonjamal1653 10 месяцев назад

From what I heard, Guns N' Roses were friends w/ Todd Crew, who was the bassist of the L.A. band Jetboy... He was unfortunately, a drug addict and was fired from Jetboy before he died in mid-1987 from an OD... Guns N' Roses were on tour when they heard the news of Todd Crew passing away and were devastated... I believe that was when they decided to cover Bob Dylan's "Knockin' on heaven's door" and played it live in concert... This was filmed in 1988 when Steven Adler (drums) was still in Guns N' Roses. The studio version of this song was recorded around 1990/ '91 w/ Matt Sorum (drums) having replaced Steven Adler (who was fired in 1990 for his own drug addictions) and made the 'Use your illusion II' album... Guns N' Roses performed a well-received version of it live in 1992 on the Freddie Mercury tribute concert at Wembley Stadium. Eric Clapton also recorded "Knockin' on heaven's door" in 1975.

@Earlofdavetona 7 месяцев назад

Polo, you’re right, Axl had an amazing rock voice, the guitarist’s name is Slash and he is one of the finest guitarists ever to pick up the instrument. Ironically he’s from England, Stoke on Trent!! You MUST listen to the studio version of You Could Be Mine and watch the video too, it was the title track to Terminator 2 and IMHO is quite simply one of the best rock tracks of all time. If you listen to it through those headphones of yours you will hear how intricately intertwined the rhythm guitar played by Izzy Stradlin and the lead by Slash actually is.

Then GNR Vacuum in The Middle Of 1993, Then Came The Famous Alternative Bands, Such As: Nirvana, Pearl jam, And SmashingPumpkins. Nirvana is Famous For Entering The Same Music Recording Studio As GNR, Namely Universal Studio Music, Through The Album Nevermind. Even though Previously Nirvana Was Not Famous at The Time, When They Were Still in Their Indipop Music Studio. The Famous Alternative Music Band From 1993-1995. Then GNR Held A Reunion At Troubadour in L.A. And The Coachella Music Festival in 2006. Many Hollywood Artists Came, Watched The GNR Reunion, Because Everyone Missed The Band GNR Rock Music, Because The Music GNR Was Very Nice To Hear. I Loved The Band GNR.

This is my favorite cover of this iconic song. Axl was/is a great entertainer/ frontman. It's a Bob Dylan song, BTW. It means so much to me, personally because I have addictive disorder (alcoholic 15 years sober). The day before I got sober, I was driving w/my son and I was still drunk from the night before. This song came on the radio. My message. It was time to surrender. The next morning I walked into AA and surrendered (not my first time BTW). Blessings...

They are a Canadian band and are soooo good live! The music video gives a pretty good idea of what their stage antics look like. The girl is absolutely wild. One time when I seen them, she hopped out on the front row rail while singing, walking up and down the length of it holding hands with random people in the crowd for balance (Pre Covid Era) She even got on someone shoulders and got them to carry her out into the crowd at one point. You really never know what she is going to do. Neither does the rest of the band according to the interviews I've watched! Hahaha What a fun band this must be to play in!

Knocking on heaven's door is a cover. Guns and Roses did the song justice. Guns and Roses was one of the biggest Rock/Metal bands in the world. They were the opposite of hair bands. Axl Rose is the singer. Axl's voice is gritty and powerful. The guitarist with the long hair and cigarette is Slash. Slash is well know guitarist with a lot talent. Usually Slash has a big black top hat on. Guns and Roses had some of the biggest hits. The band had a even bigger falling out with each other. Axl went into seclusion for at least a decade with his demons. Slash has another band and created Velvet Revolver with Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots (passed away). Very interesting pieces of history. But yes Guns and Roses were really something different. About Axl's dance, he didn't invent it. Look at a video (mute it understandly) from The Monkies 'Day Dream Believer'. The singer is Davy Jones. This is 1960s. My theory is neither knew how to dance.
