Mandolin player exceeded expectations, not only nailed every part, but made it his own! Bravo!

[@Plasmastorm73_n5evv]

Yeah...ok. Listen to the original then this and I think you'll find it an exact copy not for not of the lead guitar part. Nothing in this was original or "Made his own"

[@Bear2man858]

Her voice is so clean and flows. Band is killing it

[@johndonda1379]

Hard to imagine a Bluegrass cover of this song….. until you hear it! These folks are very talented and did a great job !!

[@EdPresley]

Sorry , they cannot improve or even duplicate the original by GNR!

[@johndonda1379]

Sorry, but I didn’t say they duplicated or improved it. I cannot speak for these artists, but I doubt they were trying to “ duplicate or improve “ the song, but rather playing it in their own style which they did very well. In this way people who like Bluegrass can enjoy and find appreciation for the song.

[@tyslink]

I had the same thought...didn't think it would work, but this could've easily been a hit song on the country charts.

[@halfbakedmunky5566]

Playing with these instruments doesn't make it bluegrass. They're still playing it exactly the same.

[@tyslink]

@@halfbakedmunky5566 always gotta be one "well actually" types...

[@aaronkazi]

Her voice is amazing

[@Rob-tn8to]

Sort of stumbled upon this video. Glad I did. What a beautiful voice! I really like this rendition.

[@Victoriak117]

I also did was watching football and I seen this and I never click on anything

[@chaositect1]

Same here. I love this version. Top notch. Bluegrass lol, who would've thought.

[@DesertAdventuresinArizona]

Love seeing young Musicians keeping these old songs alive. Great Job!

[@engmed4400]

I grew up with Guns & Roses music. This song is part of the soundtrack to my childhood, and y'all did it complete justice. I'm so glad I clicked.

[@mikehumphrey1952]

Thanks to whoever reposted this. It's one of my favorite songs. Love bluegrass, they killed this.

[@tedlytle790]

Amazing! Loved this song when it first came out, at 25. Now I am 60 and blown away all over again. THANK YOU! ❤

[@waynetaylor4995]

Fantastic to see this again, they did an awesome job Erinns voice is amazing!!

[@JDWolf-dd3wv]

Indeed!

[@kreterakete]

Yeah ! I am glad somebody uploaded it again ! I was doing research over the last years to find it again. It’s best cover ever.

[@johngraves1955]

Man, that voice is amazing! Very clear and clean, sounded like perfect pitch to me.

[@johnbasler329]

Her voice is like a knife ! It just cuts through and resonates so well

[@herbhubbel1751]

Best acoustic cover of this song I have ever heard.

[@zobeebranum2753]

The only way it should be sang lol ❤️😊

[@samschultz5108]

Love how slide guy gets in to it second half!

[@garyhall8575]

This proves that good music never gets old.

[@calvatrueno5079]

OMG, her voice...

[@willwright2227]

Appetite for Destruction was one of the best albums of all time Every single song nocked it out of park.

[@loddude5706]

Delighted to see this back up where it belongs - An absolute benchmark performance! : )

[@kreterakete]

So true ! I missed it so much over the years. Happy to see it uploaded again. It’s best cover ever.

[@brucelafone2910]

So glad this song is back on KZbin. It’s beautiful ❤❤❤

[@RConsonni]

Wow. W-O-W. W.O.W. Did I say 'WOW'?! Great rendition, there is a lot of individual details that each musician contributed, making this a unique version of this awesome song.

[@robsken7817]

there are some beautiful covers of this song out there and, this version might be my fave. It is dynamic, energetic, and insanely cool. Brings me to a sweet safe place...

[@BillHaynal]

The best cover of this song I've ever heard. Thank you!

[@dannykent6190]

This is great... but I like the Scary Pockets version myself. Check it out if you haven't seen it.

[@kreterakete]

Agreed! It was gone and not available for over 5 years. Happy to see it back.

[@jefflong1839]

Her voice is like sunshine and a honeysuckle breeze! The band, each and every memeber a perfect compliment to the whole and one another.

[@2mnxffrddfghjbbvcdfh6644bcddcv]

Its ok

[@tropicothunder4262]

Well said. Perfectly describes them.

[@ronhunt9396]

Totally agree

[@MrGGBHTD]

sings like an angel - glad they were able to put this back up

[@Hey_its_Koda]

The voice of an angel. So beautiful. I imagine hearing this on the porch at sunset with a glass of ice cold sweet tea. Watching the sun go down. Pure peace.

[@elhoward7440]

I was not impressed by the instrumentals on this, but damn, she's got a great voice!

[@aaronstasel8292]

Freaking AWESOME!!! Beautiful lady with a beautiful voice! I like this better than the original. You have earned another devoted fan, T&R. 🤙

[@themostlymikeshow2582]

Wow, when the dobro solo transitioned to the mandolin...incredible! Great cover!

[@jussitikkuri6991]

I agree...... Great young band

[@emmetquigley7926]

Stunning Vocals, Musicianship, and Melodic Atmospheric Magic sprinkled throughout. Keep your musical fires burning bright folks. Thank You Kindly for this tune.

[@Morgan-db5hn]

My two year old watches this at least ten times a day. and we love it and dance everytime. brings him so much joy. keep making music, love y'all !!! also I'm pretty sure he is going to take up the steel guitar now! he's obsessed!!!

[@jeffreymcneal1507]

The dobro slays me. She is so pretty, the men so elegant.

[@behindhthesebars]

This is incredible. I found this when I was in the middle of my chemo and it was so uplifting. I could listen to Erinn sing the phone book, her voice is so amazing.

[@sourceawry4035]

I wish you well and whole, and hope that cancer finds the cells of your body to be so intolerable a host that it never comes back. I also urge you to look into two drugs you will never hear a chemo salesman say out loud. The first is an -azole antifungal by the name of fenbend-, and the second starts with iver- and rhymes with pectin. Both have shown miraculous results when used in studies to treat cancers, but big pharma would risk losing their top money makers if they let word get out. I am neither a doctor or a cancer expert, but it is in my own best interest to promote and support free informed choice for everyone. I do this by sharing less circulated information. I will leave it up to you to decide if it is in your interest to check into it. Cheers!

[@quantumpotential7639]

I hope you survive the chemo. May the good Lord touch and heal you quickly. 🙏

[@melsterifficmama1808]

Hope you are doing well!

[@erinblackburn8540]

It’s back! Yay!!!!! Now I can listen to it another thousand times

[@desireelamont1764]

Wow this is so beautiful. Wish I had a voice like that. I love this so much.

[@FoodNerds]

First note of her voice I fell in love. The sound gives me goosebumps.

[@user-gt6bc2hs3c]

i love her voice, it just puts me in a place like a field in the summer watching the clouds pass by

[@mongonala]

that voice.... a little tear drop formed, no song has ever done that

[@hjr927]

That was amazing and I love her voice. Each member was awesome and the instruments compliment each other. Great Band!

[@ronaldbrown5759]

I like a little Bluegrass every once in a while, now I want a lot more. So clean sounding, talented. Simply awesome. Thank you.

[@xbrandi12345x]

Do you ever listen to The Dead South, Gangstagrass or The Devil Makes Three? I am a metal head that also loves rap but recently bluegrass, country and similar genres have been really impressing me. Those are a few bands I think are worth a listen.

[@ronaldbrown5759]

@@xbrandi12345x I will check them out. I'm more metal and rock but like upbeat music. You may like Ghost Hounds. Awesome vocals from lead singer. Greta Van Fleet is one of my favorite new Rock bands with an old sound. Thank you, Rock on!

[@daveking9393]

I've watched this video for years it's an excellent cover. Thanks so much for sharing so others can enjoy

[@tedlivermore6955]

How old is it?

[@vickigerding3123]

I agree

[@michealdavis5771]

how old is it

[@kreterakete]

I found it around 6 years ago while doing cover search on yt for my favorite g and r song. I would guess 6 years. But it was lost and gone for the last 3 years maybe ? Ah.. look in the description 😂 it has been recorded in late 2017 😂❤

[@wallyn9551]

Thank you for finding and rereleasing your best performance ❤

[@JustinSmithPYRO]

Thank you, Guns and roses for covering the greatest blue grass song 🤘🤘 😉 this is amazing. Love her voice

Can not prove you wrong. So so right

Wow blew me away . Great cover . Love her voice 💖.. This song reminds me of my first born...✌️🎶

[@gradybird3336]

Great stuff! Our son used to fall asleep to this song when he was a baby in '89. A born rocker. This band does this song justice.

[@inagetawodi4531]

Every song sounds better as a bluegrass cover. And through the instrumentation reveals the root origin of the song itself.

[@kellywalker8407]

Nice rendition. I surely do love a good non bluegrass song played bluegrass style.

[@billsward9961]

This was my intro to T&R…glad I found them!

[@davidthrower1553]

This is the BEST cover of this I have ever heard….in fact it even eclipses the original . Just LOVE it !!!!

[@marcbrunson6986]

Great cover and killer solos. OMG. Beautiful voice for sure.

[@justger3059]

this dang cover made me remember the 80's and 90's when this was the life ... i always wanted, but never had. beautiful country, fresh air, great music, and friends to share it with. I WAS This CLOSE. 👼🏼👼🏼😞😞😭😭

[@stevet513]

That grin on the bassist's face as the camera pans up at the end... it's like he knew they nailed that take. It was a smile of satisfaction. :)

[@colleenposadas8415]

good catch

[@patrickscully4786]

This song was built to be a bluegrass hit! Well done folks! Wonderful production. 🎉🎉🎉

[@Bitterrootbackroads]

I knew young folks in the 90s from the old time / country / gospel crowds who were messing around with the intro parts of this during practice. It was fun, and it was funny, but nobody gave serious thought to actually playing the song. If they had it would have been met like Dylan going electric. So glad THIS is back, and it deserves a permanent place in the KZbin covers Hall of Fame. Kudos also to the sound engineers & camera / video folks who dreamed this up, in this setting, and made it happen! It’s like Foxes & Fossils playing in parking lots & then some.

[@rocknfan100]

Yes, It would have SURELY been like Bob Dylan 'plugging in'. All mainstream Country & Gospel bands would only do Rock-N-Roll covers from that point on !

[@GregLedder]

Absolutely love this version - perfect in every way! :-)

[@xbrandi12345x]

This totally blew me away. I had never heard this band before so I didn't know what to expect but I definitely didn't expect it to be better than the GNR version but it is.

[@davepugh8460]

Wow....What a voice.And excellent band....love this version.....Well done....👏👏
