I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE OTHER PEOPLE OUT IN THE MUSIC WORLD, BUT I THINK THIS CD KICKS MAJOR A$$. (...). BUT THIS COMBINATION OF THE BEST LATE 80'S-90'S RHYTHM SECTION, AND MAYBE THE ONE OF THE 90'S BEST VOICES, HAS JUST GOT TO BE GREAT. FOR THE MOST PART IT IS, EXCEPT FOR A COUPLE OF DUMB SONGS, BUT DID'T USE YOUR ILLUSION I & II HAVE A FEW OF THEM TOO? (EX. 'GET IN THE RING') IF YOU WANT AN UPDATED GUNS 'N ROSES WITH LYRICS YOU CAN UNDERSTAND, GET THIS CD TODAY....AND PAY FOR IT TOO! THANK YOU, I DID.
