Appetite For Destruction Deluxe

Not much can be done to improve an already-great album like Appetite for Destruction, but the remaster is awesome. Sound quality greatly improved/cleared up from the original 80's release CD. Contains nice color-photo booklets with song lyrics & other information, and the case is a slip-on with a very aesthetically pleasing re-done album cover. This version comes with a 2nd/bonus CD containing a bunch of live performances of various "Appetite" songs as well as most of the songs from the "Lies" album - kind of like a 2-for-1. Definitely worth buying this if you're a GNR fan. Love it.

What can I say about this 2-Disc Album Set that you probably don't already know? So, instead I will tell you what I like / dislike about the purchase experience. The color black is dark. The color white is bright. Two beers is all you ever need. Now the, certainly when this the righteous music is playing, you can feeling it in essential in your soul even! G-n-R RULES!!! Fantabulous!!! The LP is good and heavy! Nice and Thick - it has the "real" weighty feel that is so ASMR!!! Incredible. Have fun. Enjoy!

I like the group they have great music

As a framer, I find immense joy in framing vinyl records, and one of my all-time favorite albums to work with is "Appetite for Destruction." Not only is it a pleasure to frame, but it's also a personal favorite to listen to. The holographic disc is a fantastic touch, adding a unique and eye-catching element to the display. It's fascinating to see the Guns N' Roses logo appear when the light hits it just right, creating an added layer of visual interest to the framed piece. Now, onto the sound quality. I made sure to keep the other disc I wasn't framing because, as a music enthusiast, I couldn't resist giving it a spin. Despite using an older record player with slightly blown-out speakers, I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality. The vinyl still managed to deliver a satisfying listening experience, comparable to the newer ones I purchase from the store. All in all, framing "Appetite for Destruction" has been a delightful experience, and it's a wonderful addition to my collection. Not only does it look stunning on the wall, but it also brings back cherished memories every time I listen to it. As a framing enthusiast and music lover, I couldn't have asked for a better combination.

Easily the best. They came out strong & raw - what's not to love?

I was going back and forth on giving this 3 or 4 stars. In the end I felt the album itself is just too good to give 3 stars. However there are somethings that I would like to point out. 1. The version I received was different than the ones that are shown in the pictures. It did not have the plastic slip cover with the banned original artwork as the outside art of the gatefold and group photo on the inside of the gatefold. Mine was just a regular gatefold with the banned original cover on the inside. I also didn’t get the high-res download code that it states on the wrapper, but that code expired on December 31, 2020 anyway so I guess it doesn’t matter anyway. 2. The audio quality is generally pretty good, but nothing outstanding to call it “audiophile”. There was some distortion on tracks. 3. I like that they split it out to 3 sides, but I think they could have made better use of the vinyl space and let the tracks breathe a little more. The runout tracks are pretty wide and I think they could have spread the music out a little further which would cut down on the distortion. 4. The hologram on the 4th side is pretty gimmicky and useless after spinning it once. A better use of the 2 LPs might have put 3 tracks per side and maybe even up the speed to 45 rpm. That would make a better use of the space and possibly justify that “audiophile” claim. 5. For some weird reason the first LP comes in a plastic lined paper sleeve that is nice so it doesn’t scratch the vinyl, but the second LP comes with just a paper sleeve. I’ll probably just replace both with a MoFi inner sleeve, but it’s just a weird decision to save 50 cents.

Great

Good sound quality compared to the original. Interesting change in pictures and liner notes from the original issue when the CD first came out. Shipping package was fine

De tous les albums de GNR, le meilleur et de loin...un classique à avoir dans sa CDthèque. Voix (ce bon vieux Axl était côté à 5,5 octaves - plus que Mariah Carrey : on comprend pourquoi vu la tessiture de voix au spectre large, musique, équilibre de l'album. Un groupe qui savait faire de la musique dans son registre, dans une époque encore créatrice : sans artifice, sans synthé : guitares-basse-batterie.

Classic album. Already had the original CD and vinyl, but stepped it up a notch, with buying the 2 disc edition. Remastered and with several bonus tracks. Including the song "Shadow of Your Love". Which didn't make the album originally, due to a variety of reasons. Plus outtakes from the original sessions, and live and acoustic tracks. Some of which, were available on the "G n' R Lies" release. Packaging is great too. With newly added photos, from the era. There is also a 4 disc version, but a little on the expensive side. So, this 2 disc version, is just perfect.

No cabe duda, estamos ante uno de los discos con el cual la musica rock vuelve a emerger como ave Fénix. Un álbum sin fisuras, potente y directo. Grandes letras y sonidos que se graban en la memoria para siempre. Edición Deluxe imprescindible para todo seguidor de la banda. Five stars.

Sumamente excelente:") como coleccionista o casual es de ley tener este clásico de guns n roses, y se que esta edición será muy cotizada por algunos así que aprovechen

Appetite For Destruction - Deluxe Edition The difference in this remaster compared to the '87 release is outstanding. I'm hearing things I've never picked up on. Sounding like a recording made today. I forgot how much I enjoyed this album. The detail is precise and clear. Slash and Izzy are not as far forward. The bottom and middle are now balanced and natural sounding and the top is no longer loose. And, finally, Duff's brilliant bass can be heard clearly with body. Appetite no longer sounds like a typical CD pressed in the '80s. Disc two offers some interesting tracks. I heard Shadow Of Your Love on a demo 7" way back in '87. It's good to hear it again but cleaned up and remastered. Brought the memories flooding back. The packaging is glorious too. It as an almost metallic sheen to the outer sleeve. The booklet is well produced and the inner gatefold with the Appetite For Destruction painting on the outside. For any fan of this solid debut by a brilliant band, it's well worth a purchase. Fingers crossed for the same treatment to the Illusion albums...
