If you've read my guides, I LOVE Chuck Klosterman - and in his book "Fargo Rock City", he compares Nirvana's Nevermind and Guns 'N Roses Appetitie for Destruction... with a clear favorite (and great review) for GNR: "Cobain's victory as an icon does not necessarily mean he made bettter music [than Rose]; at least technically, Appetite for Destruction is a stronger album than Nevermind. They're weirdly similar, actually: Both open with songs that defined each band's aethetic; both track 2s are about testosterone-driven makes (Nirvana hates'em, GNR represents 'em), both track 5s are about drugs (one prescription, one illegal), and both albums conclude with alientated, spacey finales. The difference is that Appetite for Destruction always comes across as a tour de force and a aclassic rock masterpiece, while Nevermind will forever be remembered as a vehicle for "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and its subversive affect on mainstream culture. It's periodically brilliant, but half the material on Nevermind is filler. There's no doubt about which of these records is more socially important, but there's also no question about which one gets played in my apartment when I want to hear something bada**." - Chuck Klosterman (39-40)Read full review
Appetite for Destruction is probably one of the greatest rock albums ever to be produced. The album really can be listened to in it's entirety with really no filler songs. A couple of the songs such as Sweet Child O' Mine, Paradise City, and Welcome to Jungle would make it in the top rock songs of all time. Mr. Brownstone and Nighttrain are also voted perfect 10's in my opinion. Only a couple of songs would not be rated 9 on a scale of 1 to 10. Think about you and You're Crazy are the only songs that could be passed over but, they are still worth a listen. This album made Guns n' Roses rock stars back then and they will always be remembered for this album. This album was easily their best with other pretty good ones to follow. If you love rock music and do not have this one, buy it. You will probably agree with almost everyone else that this is a five star album. Anyone who voted it lower than that probably has a problem with Axl Rose and his odd ways!Read full review
Tape cover is in great shape, but tape sound is muffled, does not sound good.
