Guns N’ Roses - Appetite For Destruction (Vinyl Record)

Setting the stage:

I started to “build a record collection” of sorts about 20 years ago. I was motivated to buy vinyl because of a record player I received as a gift. What I quickly found out was that the vinyl records market is very dense and convoluted. Despite my love for music and all of its versatility, I didn’t have much direction. I simply bought what I liked to listen to, and I ended up with a “collection” of original records (i.e. first pressing) and reissues. Some purchases were of new records and some purchases were of used records, but for the last 20 years or so (subject to release date), all of the records I am offering have been in my possession. In total, I’ve accumulated just over 100 records for my “record collection”. Ultimately, these records have been collecting dust sitting on my shelves. I’ve opened and unwrapped some of the records and others are as is. Have I listened to them all? No way. I would estimate I’ve listened to about 25 of the records and some of them even a few times. Any of these records can become part of your collection now. I will be posting them in batches because compiling a discography, cataloging, and photographing all these records has been much more difficult than buying them and enjoying them. By now you can probably tell I’m not very technical with the record jargon. I’ve dedicated an immense amount of time to compiling the most accurate information to provide you about the records I am offering. I believe all of the records are in good condition at a minimum. I purchased them all from reputable record stores and not at garage sales or flea markets. That being said, I am happy to answer questions on the higher dollar items ($50+), I won’t take pictures and fulfill a bunch of random requests for the low dollar items, I just don’t have the bandwidth. In the end, I believe you will be very satisfied with your purchase. Please make sure and check out my other lots, there will certainly be something up your alley. I have priced all the items to reflect their current condition. If you disagree with my assessments please do not make the purchase. All sales items are final and I will not accept returns. Now onto the good stuff…

Guns N’ Roses:

Guns N’ Roses burst out of Los Angeles in the mid-1980s like a Molotov cocktail thrown into the hair-metal party. Led by the electrifying Axl Rose and the iconic, top hatted guitar slinger Slash, GNR fused punk’s danger, metal’s power, and classic rock’s swagger. They quickly became one of the most explosive and unpredictable bands in music history. Fans of GNR loved them for their raw energy, gritty lyrics, and no-holds-barred stage presence. With their rebellious image and anthemic songwriting, Guns N’ Roses captured the angst of a generation. Even today, they remain one of rock’s most influential and best selling acts, with a fan base that spans decades and continents.

Guns N’ Roses - Appetite For Destruction:

Appetite for Destruction (1987) is Guns N’ Roses’ legendary debut album and one of the most celebrated rock records of all time. It’s packed with immortal tracks like “Welcome to the Jungle,” “Paradise City,” and the epic “Sweet Child O’ Mine”—which became the band’s first No. 1 single and a cultural touchstone. Critically acclaimed and fan-adored, Appetite For Destruction has sold over 30 million copies worldwide, earning it a diamond certification in the U.S. It’s widely regarded as one of the greatest debut albums in history and helped revive hard rock in the late ’80s. Loud, defiant, and addictive, this record defines what it means to live fast and play louder.
