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.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2011-07-11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2011-07-11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Guns N Roses","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45274673217580,"sku":"PC3TNU-PA8G-6X","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0711\/4755\/2812\/files\/guns-n-roses-greatest-hits_bsYzd.jpg?v=1770832814","url":"https:\/\/b-side-records-vintage-2.myshopify.com\/products\/guns-n-roses-greatest-hits","provider":"B-Side Records \u0026 Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
