Hard-rock juggernauts Guns 'N' Roses arrived as rock & roll saviors in a dark time of generic hair metal and bloated pop. With only five studio albums to draw from (one being the all-covers SPAGHETTI INCIDENT), nearly a third of the material on GREATEST HITS is unsurprisingly devoted to other people's songs. Inclusions range from a dramatic version of Bob Dylan's "Knockin' On Heavens Door" and an outsized take on Paul McCartney's "Live and Let Die" to punk classic "Ain't It Fun" and doo-wop nugget "Since I Don't Have You."

The band's original songs, however, are the heart of G'N'R's appeal. Start with the quintessential heavy-rock anthem "Welcome to the Jungle." Amid the thunderous time-keeping and tasty riffing are slinky grooves, sexy swagger, and quite an aura of danger. The acoustic "Patience" found these tattooed bad boys showing off a softer side, while archetypal power-ballad "Sweet Child O' Mine" is a perfect hybrid of sentiment and soaring guitar solos. Think of GREATEST HITS as a sampler for the sumptuous buffet that is G'N'R's recorded oeuvre.

Additional personnel includes: Shannon Hoon, Michael Monroe (vocals); Gilby Clarke, Mike Staggs, Paul Huge (guitar); Matthew McKagan, Rachel West, Robert Clark, Jon Trautwein (horns); Stuart Bailey, Reba Shaw, The Waters (background vocals).

Guns N' Roses: W. Axl Rose (vocals, piano, synthesizer, percussion, programming); Slash (acoustic & electric guitars, 6-string bass); Izzy Stradlin (guitar, percussion, background vocals); Dizzy Reed (piano, keyboards, background vocals); Duff McKagan (bass, background vocals); Matt Sorum (drums, background vocals); Steven Adler (drums).

5 stars From Another Planet
Guns N' Roses is one of the few rock bands that can truly support a 'Greatest Hits' album. All the songs are extraordinary and really touch my soul every time I here them. Thanks!

The chemistry between Jackson and Monk on classics like "Misterioso," "Evidence," "I Mean ...

Greatest Hits songs
CD $18.99
The Good Brothers have gained a worldwide audience over the course of their accomplished career. Bruce and twin Brian, along with kid brother Larry, knew they were destined for something bigger than their suburban Toronto roots. Formed in the early '70's, the Good Brothers first gig was a legendary Toronto club, The Riverboat, on May 14, 1974. They played simple music, straight from the heart that encompassed country, bluegrass, folk and the occasional taste from the rock and roll songbook. Fiddle tunes flowed as did cover songs, highlighted by Larry's banjo breaks, Bruce's autoharp, their unique sibling harmonies, and enough on-stage-energy to burn down the cornfield. The memories continued. James Accroyd and various pals from The Grateful Dead supported the first record, distributed by Columbia. Then came the cross-Canada trip on the infamous Festival Express with Janis Joplin, The Band, The Grateful Dead and Ten Years After...to mention just a few. What excitement - the gigs at San Francisco's Fillmore West, the nights at L.A.'s Troubadour with John Hammond and Tracy Nelson, and the weeks at the Universal Amphitheatre with ("the mentor") Gordon Lightfoot! James and The Good Brothers, Maple Leaf Gardens, 1970. It wasn't long before the Good's were packing Toronto's fabled El Macombo five nights a week; breaking bar records, attendance records, and exhausting determined dancers.Then there were eight straight Juno Awards as Best Country Group, and headline gigs at Massey Hall and the National Arts Centre. There was even a self-titled platinum album. Fast forward almost 30 years - and they're still here. No long breaks for the Goods - they kept making records, and gigged relentlessly. Next year they're off on tour in Europe, again,; this will be their 21st tour on the other side of the Atlantic. They've kept the flame burning, and the music going, and those determined dancers have never stopped. The '80's and the '90's came and went, and Canada's musical soundtrack through all those years, included the Good Brothers. Yes, the times have changed - the music business isn't like it used to be, and nor is most of the music. The brave days seem to have vanished, and the sheer joy of making music seems harder to discover. And yet...what's this? The new album by the Good Brothers! One True Thing, as accurate as anyone could use. Larry and Brian ...
