so what is this song exactly? it's known that during the sessions they recorded some unreleased tracks, including "Untitled song in progress" and "Cornshucker Stomp". now obviously a song was released, but we don't know which one it is. 

what do you guys think, is this Cornshucker Stomp, or is it the untitled song?

it was known that You're Crazy acoustic and The Plague were existing, and indeed they have been now released. but what about "New York Tune"?

thanks for your opinions ;)

wow this is amazing

where does that list comes from?

how do you guys know that these uncirculated versions actually exist?

is it possible that there are more songs that were recorded and are not on this list?

:headbang:

it's always possible that some more recordings or even other sessions happened - for example, I've found out that they were doing some sessions at Sunset Sound Studios, but all I know is that those sessions happened between 1985 and January 1987 - that's all.

the list is part of my table of all GNR (including Hollywood Rose and Rapidfire) studio sessions and takes - it's not yet complete so I only copy&paste parts of it here and there.

it was based on huge amount of time of other people, trying to compile all available information from bootleggers, official booklets, studio engineers interviews etc.

I don't think so. it was more likely 3-4 days (2-5th June 1986) - we only know snippets of exact information, based on AFD 2LP/Deluxe Edition credits (which says 5th, at least for some songs), and the original reels (which say 4th for the same songs - so I guess it was more days).

I don't have the SDE/L&L credits handy yet, so I can't tell about the other tracks that are on CD3-CD4.

there's no "Hell House" JJF - 3 takes from Sound City (2 circulating and included at AFD SDE/L&L, 3rd take is not circulating), and the remaining one is from Pasha. check your "Hell House" version against Alan Niven 1986 bootleg ;)

yes, definitely. no HH from Hell House known.

1 take was done at Mystic Studio (but never circulated)

2 takes were done at Sound City (one has been bootlegged and subsequently released officially at AFD SDE, the other take is not circulating).

2 takes were done at Pasha (one is at Alan Niven 1986 master tapes again, the other one has been "released semi-officially" at a compilation called Hollywood Rocks! Vinyl Edition and it seems that one is the only source where it appeared)

that makes 3 circulating versions altogether.

thats fantastic info thanks a lot for sharing!

one info that has always intrigued me is that Izzy mentioned in some interviews that the band tried to record the illusion albuns (or something to that effect) two or three times before the actual sessions

i know very little about that, i suppose they may have booked studio time and recorded quite a lot of stuff on these sessions

Don't know why, but i hear locomotive everywhere in this song.. 😅

Same. The chorus especially.

To my ears its almost like Locomotive is this jam elevated to Axls UYI standards. Or without that finesse it would be right at home of It's Five O' Clock Somewhere.
