Axl Rose, born in 1962, is the unpredictable and passionate frontman of Guns N’ Roses. With a voice spanning octaves and emotions, he led the band through Appetite for Destruction (1987), which included “Welcome to the Jungle,” “Sweet Child o’ Mine,” and “Paradise City.” GNR followed with the ambitious Use Your Illusion I & II (1991), and Rose became infamous for late shows and incendiary performances.
