From “Paradise City” to “Coma”: Guns N’ Roses’ Live Era ‘87–‘93 Makes a Triumphant Comeback

UMe/Geffen is firing up the engines to celebrate one of the biggest bands in rock history, Guns N’ Roses! They’re reissuing one of their first-ever live albums, Live Era ‘87–‘93. You can get your grubby lil’ hands on it as of November 21, 2025. It’s been newly remastered from the original analog tapes.

Recorded around the world during the Guns N’ Roses’ wildest years, this album captures GN’R in all their recklessness. “Welcome To The Jungle,” “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” “Paradise City,” “Don’t Cry”, “November Rain”. It’s all here!

The new Live Era ‘87–‘93 will come in a few flavours:

  • A Premium 4-LP color vinyl edition with two gatefolds, embossed slipcase, foil details, and a poster (yeah, it’s sexy).

  • A Standard 4-LP 180g black vinyl housed in a slick slipcase — poster included.

  • And a digital remaster, complete with the 1999 Japan bonus track “Coma”, now available worldwide for the first time.

This collection should remind you of why GN’R owned the late ‘80s and early ‘90s. Their 1987 debut, Appetite For Destruction, changed rock forever: 18× platinum, 746 weeks on the Billboard charts, and three massive hits: “Welcome To The Jungle,” “Paradise City,” and “Sweet Child O’ Mine”.

Then came G N’ R Lies (1988), five times platinum, featuring “Patience.” And in 1991, the double knockout Use Your Illusion I & II. Seven times platinum each. “November Rain,” “Don’t Cry,” “Live And Let Die,” “You Could Be Mine”.

By ‘93, they closed the chapter with The Spaghetti Incident?, a punk-fuelled covers album that hit No.4.

Now, more than three decades later, Live Era ‘87–‘93 returns! And if that’s not enough, Guns N’ Roses hit the road October and November 2025 for another global run.
