Proud to say it's the first tape I ever owned.  Use Your Illusion I was my first CD.

My Mother was not keen on my getting this one, due to that nasty sticker stuck on the front.  And because I was 11.

What saved me is that Dad is a huge rock fan and started hearing a lot about these guys.  He did a little research and assured Mom it was just bad language and nothing satanic or otherwise subversive.  So he smoothed it over and we bought the vinyl.

About halfway through 'It's So Easy', he turns to me and says "Well, your mother can never hear this.  This is a walkman band, not a play it on your boombox band." 

(God...look at that last paragraph : "walkman", "boombox".....man, am I old.)

I played the shit out of that thing.  Wore it out.

Just loved that song, and still do.  Consider it the best songs on either UYI album.

I know people who listened to this album

And they never reached Rocket Queen until years later. One of the greatest songs of all time

Naughty step awaits for sure

The way I got into 'Estranged' was rewinding my tape too far back after 'You Could Be Mine'.

Eventually, I had to hear the rest of that song.

The casette copy my sister made me of illusion II ended at you could be mine. the day i actually listened the album from hers original copy, and almost accidentally heard don't cry alt. and my world, i was chocked.
What no no this cant be on the real album, you made this. why would they put two dont cry's and a techno song in there??
Needles to say that original copy became mine very soon after.
Now i find those songs conplete the Illusions experience.
