As of June 24, 2023, during their performance of "Paradise City" at Glastonbury, Guns N’ Roses had recently released their most recent studio album, "Chinese Democracy," in 2008. However, in the years leading up to this live recording, the band had focused heavily on touring and reviving their classic lineup with frontman Axl Rose and lead guitarist Slash reunited since 2016. Their appearance at Glastonbury marked a significant moment, not just because of the return to such a prominent festival, but also due to the special guest appearance by Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl, adding a unique layer to their iconic track. This performance showcased the band's enduring appeal and their continued influence in rock music, alongside a backdrop of a legacy that includes some of the most well-known albums in history.
