The New Version is from the upcoming "Use Your Illusion" box set
Guns N’ Roses have gifted us a NEW 2022 version of their 1991 epically bombastic hit “November Rain” featuring a monstrous 50-piece orchestra.
The updated and newly remastered version has been released as part of the new “Use Your Illusion I & II 30th Anniversary reissue which is out next Friday (November 11th)
The 2022 version becomes even more robust. Yes, you heard me, more robust. How does one achieve such a thing? I’ll tell ya- With a full orchestra for starters, tempani percussion and woodwinds to finish it off.
Steve Wilson and Christopher Lennartz handled the mixing. The latter for the new orchestral parts and the former taking on the complexity of the original version.
