Road to Nowhere

Hellraiser

Happy 25th anniversary to the Ozzy Osbourne album No More Tears. The album was Osbourne's sixth studio album and the last to feature drummer Randy Castillo and bassist Bob Daisley. Daisley had played bass up to that point on all but The Ultimate Sin album while co-writing most of the songs in the first five albums. Lemmy of Motorhead co-wrote three songs on the album.



Guns N' Roses - The Garden

Had to put this one up giving Alice does guest vocals.



Guns N' Roses - Yesterdays

Guns N' Roses - Estranged

Another favorite. kind of a sad song but a beautiful song. The video is cheesy but I like it. The concert footage was from a show in Munich, Germany on June 26, 1993 one month before the Use Your Illusion tour ended after 26 months. Knowing that makes the video a little sad giving that band members went on record saying they hoped the tour would never end because they knew the band would be over once it did.



Guns N' Roses - Don't Cry

Another classic. Interesting notes as Izzy left right before the video and Gilby Clarke had yet to be hired so there's no rhythm guitarist. The band even joked about it with the "Where's Izzy" sign. Shannon Hoon of Blind Melon guests in the video. Sad irony is the end of the video showing Axl approaching his tombstone which states "1962-1990" implying Axl only lived to be 28. While thankfully the band has lived much longer, the same couldn't be said for Hoon who ironically did die at 28 in 1995 due to a cocaine overdose.
