Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk Review IWelcome to the Videos/I provides a baker's dozen of Guns 'n' Roses' most explosive and memorable music videos from 1987 to 1993, and what a lesson they provide in the early evolution of visual style on MTV. Looking back, it seems Guns n' Roses embraced almost every type of music-video setting: "Welcome to the Jungle", for instance, finds rapid images of the band's stage performance interspersed with a semi-narrative featuring Axle Rose as a newcomer to the big bad city; "Paradise City" is set against an arena sound check, while "Sweet Child O' Mine" is structured around the now-threadbare idea of a video documentary about a video production. A couple of obsessive themes emerge from this anthology, the starkest involving love and watery deaths ("Don't Cry" and "November Rain"). Most interesting are the opiate-like distortions of "The Garden" and the surreal "Since I Don't Have You", starring Gary Oldman as a grinning devil. I--Tom Keogh/I

November 15, 2002 12 out of 13 found this review helpful If you are a Guns N Roses fan, you have to own this video. From the moment Axl gets off the bus with a piece of straw in his mouth at the start of the Welcome to the Jungle, you know that you're in for a rock rollercoaster of epic proportions! From the explosive introduction of GnR to the world with the video of Welcome to the Jungle, the on-stage antics of Paradise City, the epic November Rain to the appropriate end with Estranged, this video charts the career of the greatest Rock band of all time.pOne glaring mistake though is the exclusion of 'You Could Be Mine", perhaps it is to do with the video being from T2, i dont know but that video has the best ending, when the band walk out of the door to meet Arnold Schwarzenegger.pA minor gripe as this video is still a must have, BUY IT NOW!!! The best December 7, 2000 8 out of 9 found this review helpful It starts with the classics like welcome to the jungle and sweet child and goes through to the epics such as november rain and estranged and you can clearly see the change of band members as time goes on, a must for any true guns n roses fan A fantastic DVD by the best band to ever grace the earth February 12, 2004 Liam Leane 3 out of 3 found this review helpful Fantastic DVD (and despite an earlier comment there are no problems with the sound / picture), just a shame there isn't another one about for the rest of the videos.pAs with most things GnR it has Axl ego oozing from all over the place (I have yet to encounter scantily clad ladies dancing around a fire wearing shoes adorned with his name) but that just adds to the charm of the videos. It is also nice to see the inclusion of less well known GnR tracks like "Dead Horse" on this DVD.pAll round a fantastic purchase in this fan's opinion. Must buy!! Buy it now!! Today!! October 31, 2003 13 out of 17 found this review helpful Simply brilliant. This is quite possibly, in my mind definately, the greatest collection of music videos ever made! I have a wide range of music videos and dvds by various rock artists but this one is by far the best. All the classic hits from one of the biggest bands in the world. Winners of the michael jackson video award thingy in 93! These promos are works of art in their own right. April 22, 2004 2 out of 2 found this review helpful Watching these vidoes back to back, what strikes the viewer is the amazingarray of different styles employed in their making. From the glammed upperformance on Welcome To The Jungle to the brooding epic 'November Rain'to the spooky Don't Cry, this is more than a video collection, it's an Ato Z of rock video types, all executed with style and flair.brAll oftheir promo clips. What more can you ask? brEssential for all G'n'Rfans. Showing reviews 1-5 of 23 1 2 3 4 5 Next »
