dalsh327 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Wonderful. I had no idea that they had covered that piece of music. It's one of my favorite love themes of all time. Layla itself is a great song, but the coda takes it to a whole other level. Amazing to see this band give this material its due.I still don't get how someone can write such a beautiful piano piece could smash their mother in the head with a hammer. It truly is a mad world we live in. From what I've read about Jim Gordon, his illness is so severe that he doesn't seem to remember that he wrote that piano piece. He's lost in a world of ghosts.Layla, btw was one of the three songs Axl cited as his favorite tunes.From some of the things I read, he'll play drums on a rare occasion but I don't know if he wants parole.

trqster Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Axl is such a great piano player - just can't stop to imagine what kind of similar great instrumental songs he might have created and played with Slash.Nice guitar playing from BBF too.

Bruno P. Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Yeah I hadn't heard them do that before.Also, what's all this nonsense about which version of Layla this is? That was the famous outro which is the only reason Layla was ever called a good song. Clapton re-released it years later as an acoustic bit with nothing really awesome about it.It was only played at the last 3 gigs in Vegas last year.Little snippets of it here and there.. https://youtu.be/yO15w3Sg6pc?t=6m45s Ron is an incredible player, he can play the fuck out of anything you give him, and one of few who can play Bucket's parts. He cared about the fans and cared about the band and it's future, he'll be missed.I'll miss that outro. Well, we have some proshot recordings so I can hear them again It sounds good. Enjoyed that.It reminds me of Axl and Slash's Dust in the Wind performance. This is what GnR has become, bro. There's only one good thing about GnR - the past. I just can not enjoy GnR anymore.

axlslash Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Technically, its Coda. If anyone has a copy of this as the intro to Street of Dreams/Boston 2006? Please post!"Coda" isn't the name of a song. It's a musical term, essentially meaning "outro." Considering them different songs would be like calling the faster part at the end of November Rain "Coda."
