Oh, Won't You Please Take Me Home

Another great song from a great album for you all today. Said to be Slash's favorite GNR song, this song was suposedly conceived in the back of a rental van after a gig in San Francisco. This band caught lightening in a bottle and truly rode the top of the hard rock scene for a good five or six years before the band took a hiatus and Axl seemed to screw everything up. Here is GNR with "Paradise City"...
