GUNS N' ROSES' 'Greatest Hits' To Be Re-Released In UK

May 15, 2008

NME.com reports that GUNS N' ROSES' "Greatest Hits" collection, which was originally released in March of 2004, will be reissued in the UK on June 2, apparently in time for Father's Day (June 15).

According to a press release about the album, the collection is being re-released "especially for Father's Day, as it's most definitely the only album of choice for any serious rockfather."

"Greatest Hits" sold more than 9,000 copies in the United States last week alone (week ending May 11),bringing the total number of copies sold since its release to 4.1 million, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose, along with ex-members Slash and Duff McKagan, tried to block the release of "Greatest Hits" with a lawsuit, claiming that the record label had assembled the CD without their input. The band's label, Geffen Records, insisted that it was forced to put out a greatest hits album since Axl Rose had failed to deliver the long-delayed new GUNS album, "Chinese Democracy".
