Product Details

Product Description

This is an iconic song by American rock band Guns N' Roses, released on their debut studio album, Appetite for Destruction (1987). It has been arranged for brass band with a slow mellow beginning, before transititioning into the rock style of the original. This features many sections, including solos for flugel and euphonium. There are also exciting parts for glockenspiel and xylophone.

During a jam session at the band's house in Sunset Strip, drummer Steven Adler and Slash were warming up and Slash began to play a "circus" melody while making faces at Adler. Rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin asked Slash to play it again. Stradlin came up with some chords, Duff McKagan created a bassline and Adler planned a beat. In his autobiography, Slash said "within an hour my guitar exercise had become something else." Lead singer Axl Rose was listening to the musicians upstairs in his room and was inspired to write lyrics, which he completed by the following afternoon.
