WRIF in Detroit used to play this version constantly back in the day. Hearing it again after all these years took me back to being a kid :)

My classic rock stations always used to play an edited version of the one from The Ritz. Never been able to find it on a promo disc or anything, so I don't know where it came from.

Yeah, my local rock station in Wisconsin used to play that, too. If I remember correctly, there was a radio promo-only CD for the Ritz show, from the King Biscuit Flour Hour or one of those old concert shows.

That note Axl hits at 3:43 is incredible! 

But otherwise this version was meh. Haha the quality didn’t seem as good as the other ones although I’m a fan of the shorter version. 

Just wanted a thread for Axl’s note here

It's always been my favorite version. First heard it 30 years ago on a Japanese import cassette (upgraded to the CD a few years ago). The cassette had that plus the versions of It's So Easy and Whole Lotta Rosie from the same Marquee show that are also on the new AFD remaster. It also had the "live, but not really" versions of Move To The City (the version also on GN'R Lies) and Shadow Of Your Love. They threw in the studio version of Sweet Child O' Mine as well.

This is the Japanese import I speak of. Paid around $38 for a used copy on Ebay four or five years ago.
