In a recent interview with New York magazine, GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose explained what's been holding up the release of the oft-delayed "Chinese Democracy", an album he's spent more than a decade working on. "It's not about being a control freak," he said. "It's about being maybe smart enough to go, 'No, that's a bad idea.' That's all it's about — keeping the ability to at least have a shot as opposed to something that's just an obvious disaster. I want to make a good record. I don't want to throw a brick. This cannot be Shaq at the free-throw line." Rose added that the disc will surface before the end of 2006.

GUNS N' ROSES' "Greatest Hits" collection, which was originally issued in March of 2004, was certified triple-platinum on April 11, 2006 by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) for shipments in excess of three million copies. The CD sold more than 11,000 copies in the United States last week alone (week ending September 10),bringing the total number of copies sold since its release to 3.16 million, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
