November Rain / Sweet Child O' Mine

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy in its original Geffen factory sleeve. This 45 release of "November Rain" had the group's first -- and biggest hit --? on the flip side. You get the group's two biggest hits on one single! Dave Marsh included this single in his 1999 addendum to the original list of 1001 greatest singles, originally published in 1989. "November Rain" must hold some record for the longest song ever pressed to 45 rpm vinyl --? it clocks at an eye-popping 8:53! Between that and "Sweet Child o'Mine" (the original LP version), you've got almost 15 minutes of Guns N' Roses here.
