In the last preview before the big reissue of Appetite For Destruction coming out tomorrow (June 29,) listeners can enjoy the “Piano Version” of Guns N’ Roses iconic epic that was recorded as part of the band’s 1986 Sound City recording session.

Also, it so weird to not hear Slash’s massive solo on the version below after being conditioned to air-guitar to it after all these years.
