He said a while back that his royalties should be 50% for the song, but it's significantly lower and that there are a few other credited songwriters that somehow don't appear on the liner notes.

The price put me off pulling the trigger, I'll see if I can snag a copy further down the line!

Did anyone indulge in Record Store Day? Pulls for me: Faces BBC Sessions The Replacements Not Ready For Prime Time TV The Stones self titled

It's a win if they are heard in any form, however part of me would be disappointed if they were released under his own name and not Guns N' Roses. It would go against everything he has said since the band disintegrated in the 90's, but it's better to have them than not - which I don't think we will, I reckon they'll still be drip fed under the GNR banner.

Bizarre behaviour.

I’d be more interested in another acoustic type show. That L’Arc performance in 2010 was absolutely top drawer, I hope that the pro-shot sees the light of day as that would more than scratch the itch. Rose Bar was great too, but in true GNR fashion, the acoustic show we have professionally filmed is Bridge School.

Forgot about that! Odd that it was registered as one track, I seem to recall people thinking Monsters was initially the orchestral part of The General or something.

Has there been any mention of the title Monsters other than the file name on the leaked track? Time will tell regardless when it officially drops, keeping 'Chicken Dinner' in mind here! Phenomenal tune. Phenomenal vox. More of it please, Axl!

10 years since they done this in Vegas.

100%, it's definitely in his wheelhouse where he can sound top tier. Hopefully we hear it soon!

The Replacements done something similar with their 'Songs for Slim' release. They wanted to generate as much money as possible for Slim's hospital bills etc. The record ended up getting released via streaming platforms then did eventually get a physical release in a limited run also, so I'd imagine it may be something similar? So I guess it'll be a unique first pressing of the record they've got in the can. Time will hopefully tell, just hope that it's not another 7 years!

Potentially getting this along with the Michael Schenker song in the same year will be pretty sweet, very curious to hear Axl’s relatively current studio chops on a proper song.

Is soon still the word?
