Guns N' Roses will release a massive Use Your Illusion I & II box set on November 11. The box set includes a version of "November Rain" with a newly-recorded 50-piece orchestra conducted and arranged by Christopher Lennertz, a New York show at the Ritz Theatre recorded in 1991, and a Las Vegas show at the Thomas & Mack Center recorded in 1992. The New York show features two songs with then-Blind Melon vocalist Shannon Hoon on vocals, while the Las Vegas show offers a handful of interesting covers. Both Use Your Illusion I & II were remastered for the releases, as were the live shows.
The box set runs as follows. Pre-orders are available here with just your regular CD and vinyl editions available alongside the super expansive box sets.
