Geffen GN'R DVD press release
Guns N' Roses Debuts on DVD With Releases of WELCOME TO THE VIDEOS Featuring
All the Band's Videos and Two Concert USE YOUR ILLUSION WORLD TOUR Home Videos
Wednesday October 15, 10:00 am ET
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Guns N' Roses are finally, officially, on
DVD with the first-time releases on the format of WELCOME TO THE VIDEOS and the
concert performances USE YOUR ILLUSION I: WORLD TOUR - 1992 IN TOKYO and USE
YOUR ILLUSION II: WORLD TOUR - 1992 IN TOKYO (Geffen/UMe), released October 28,
2003. WELCOME TO THE VIDEOS, originally released on VHS in 1998, features all
13 GN'R videos seen on MTV, some of the most popular and acclaimed videos ever
aired, from the burst-of-energy "Welcome To The Jungle" to the inspired
"November Rain" to the epic "Estranged." The music videos to six Top 10 hits,
four of them gold, are included in the 70-minute compilation. Whether filled
with concert and behind-the-scenes footage, performances-for-video or
powerfully evocative narratives, Guns N' Roses music videos have been among
the most emotionally provocative in rock.
A winner of the prestigious Video Vanguard Award from the MTV Video Music Award
s, the band's video history began with a 1988 MTV Award as Best New Artist for
"Welcome To The Jungle" (#7). The following year, "Sweet Child O' Mine" (gold
and the group's only #1) won for Best Metal/Hard Rock Video. Both videos, as
well as the next two, "Paradise City" (1988, #5) and "Patience" (1989, #4 and
gold), were directed by music video pioneer Nigel Dick.
In 1991, GN'R expanded their repertoire with more grandiose videos directed by
many-time MTV Award-winner Andy Morahan. For "Don't Cry" (#10, gold), the
narrative was mixed with a rooftop performance (including the late Shannon Hoon
of Blind Melon). After the band's cover of Paul and Linda McCartney's "Live
And Let Die" (1991, Top 40), Morahan helmed "November Rain" (#3, gold). At the
1992 VMAs, the video won three awards, for Best Cinematography, Best Special
Effects, and Best Editing -- and, most significantly, GN'R won the Video
Vanguard Award.
Morahan then directed 1992's "Yesterdays" and "Garden Of Eden" and 1993's
"Estranged." A massive undertaking, "Estranged" was shot all over the world,
from a live performance in Munich, Germany, to a supertanker off Texas to a
swim-with-the-dolphins experience in the Bahamas to the Sunset Strip.
In 1992, Guns N' Roses debuted on home video with USE YOUR ILLUSION WORLD TOUR
- 1992 IN TOKYO presented in two separate packages, I and II. Each is a
collection of live performances of their best-known songs. Unique to these
videos are performances of Bob Dylan's "Knockin' On Heaven's Door," the theme
from THE GODFATHER and one hell of a Drum and Guitar Solo. Each USE YOUR
ILLUSION video was certified gold.
Now the original band is seen and heard once again on DVD geared to long time
fans as well as the new ones discovering one of the most influential rock bands
of all time -- Guns N' Roses.
