About this listen
Nova and Dorian explore the wild history of one of the Sunset Strip's most chaotic and influential bands.
This week on Rockers to Doctors, Nova Starwick and Dorian Prescott take a full deep dive into L.A. Guns — the legendary Sunset Strip band that helped shape the Los Angeles hard rock scene and gave Guns N' Roses half its name.
The episode traces the story from Fairfax High School friendships between Tracii Guns and Slash, through the formation of Guns N' Roses, the rise of L.A. Guns during the glam metal explosion, the success of Cocked & Loaded and "The Ballad of Jayne," the collapse of the Sunset Strip era during grunge, the bizarre years of two competing versions of L.A. Guns, and the eventual reconciliation between Tracii Guns and Phil Lewis.
Along the way, Nova and Dorian examine the band's musical legacy, internal chaos, Sunset Strip culture, lawsuits, reunions, and why L.A. Guns remains one of the most fascinating and resilient bands in hard rock history.
