GUNS N' ROSES - WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE
Own a definitive, high-velocity piece of early GNR history with this rare 1987 UK original 12" Limited Special Edition of "Welcome to the Jungle." Released on Geffen Records (GEF 30TW) during the band's notorious first invasion of the London rock scene, this highly collectible single comes beautifully wrapped in its original, massive 36" x 24" fold-out glossy band poster sleeve. Leaving the standard album cuts behind, this 45-RPM powerhouse features the definitive studio version of the title track backed by three incredibly rare, explosive live recordings—including a blistering cover of AC/DC's "Whole Lotta Rosie" and a ferocious cut of "It's So Easy" recorded raw at the Marquee Club. Delivering unparalleled UK-analog punch and complete with its highly fragile poster bag entirely intact, this stunning release is a premier investment piece for any serious Guns N' Roses archivist or vintage metal collector.
