Yup...absolutely it is. Arguably, one of the best "initial," first LP releases in music history. It helped GnR blow the walls down at a particular time when music was a bit bland, and needed a good kick in the ass to get things going again. Not particularly complicated music, but some good ol Rock n Roll, and just what the doctor ordered at the time. One of those bands that let "ego" (and of course, a bit of substance abuse), tear em down, and left us music fans to wonder "what if?" Even if there'd not been another song done after AFD, I believe it would have been more than enough to vault these dudes to legendary status.

@Zayden Jose none of my business, but it sounds like it's time for a trade-in and get a newer model. And now that the "how" of it is on a public forum linked to you, she's gonna change things with the quickest. Either way, covert operations have now started, and the death knell on the relationship has already sounded. Ex-fil ahead of a "scorched earth" policy. Burn everything down so she can't use it. Better luck with the next one....

By far the best front man of a rock group at the point he was unreal

@@drew65sep agreed. I remember rock at the time was getting stagnant and then this album hits and this song drops on the radio and MTv (back when MTv was about music). It had the snarl and and in your face that rock had seemed to be losing at the time.

@@SgtSplatter782 absolutely bro...I graduated high-school in '83, and on to some college that I never finished before getting lucky and landing the good job that I eventually would retire from. Lol, most of the 80's are still a blur...but, I can get my time frame halfway correct by the music that came out, and what vehicle I had. Pretty bad, but it's called the "80's of excess" for a reason. There was some really kick-ass music that came to be back then...

Male and female. His range was wider than Mariah Careys

@@VinnyyDP dang Mariah Carey almost got up to him

Brad delp, Freddie mercury, David Coverdale, Axl, list goes on

Uh uh! Ian Gillan has phenomenal range!

You might want to hear John Farnhams version of Black dog . But yes Axle had a 5 octave range but he cant sing the variety that John could sing.

Axl

Actually it was inspired when Axl hit NYC ... Before going to L.A and forming GnR.. Duff was talking about it on 3 Chords & The Truth his XM Radio show.. He landed somewhere in the Bronx where did not need to be and it made even him shiver...lol

I heard something similar about Slipknot’s song Eyeless. Where (I believe) Cory Taylor heard a homeless man repeating the phrase “you can’t see California without Marlin Brando’s eyes.” And it ended up in the song; though I don’t know how true that is.

@@Lee4364 yea, supposedly Axle said some little old black man looked at him and said, "you know where you are? You in the Jungle baby". "You're gonna die"

@@rediron44 Yes Sir.. scared him enough to go to LA...lol

Actually a friend in Seattle told him the line

This is not a metal band It's a rock band

@@MJ-ul9ge he said this song "shaped" and didnt say it is "metal"

Half the band was deep into black tar heroin at the time which made them a risky investment to say the least.

He's still awesome anyway, though!

Yes! One of my favorite collaborations MJ does with another artist! Give In To Me❣️

Great stuff! Lenny Kravitz too, also one of my favorites in the whole wide world since his debut in 1991... Peace Y'all

And Slash is one of the few guitarists Prince allowed to join him.

Quit talking about Michael Jackson

Izzy?

@@balucious you are correct! I was thinking Izzy. Gilby Clark replaced Izzy and Matt Sorrum replaced Steven Adler right?

@@seanwolf8056 You sir, are also correct!

I think Steven Adler died. 🤔
