What would be the best NITL compilation?


Recommended Posts

What do you guys think would make the best NITL CD/Blu-ray? What are the best performances?

IMO it would look something like this, I'm sure others will add their preferred performances, so maybe there will be votes/polls eventually about which is 'the best', but I think this is a good starting point for a NITL 'best-of'.

 

It's So Easy - Troubadour 2016
Mr. Brownstone - Vegas 2016 (2nd night)
Chinese Democracy - Philadelphia 2016
Welcome To The Jungle - Detroit 2016
Double Talkin Jive - Kobe 2017
Better - Houston 2016
Estranged - Mexico, April 2016
Live And Let Die - Curitiba 2016
Rocket Queen - Houston 2016
You Could Be Mine - Houston 2016
Shadow of Your Love - Talinn 2018
This I Love - Seattle 2016
Civil War - Houston 2016
Coma - Houston 2016
Sweet Child O' Mine - Houston 2016
Wichita Lineman - Washington 2017
My Michelle - Arlington 2016
Out Ta Get Me - Houston 2016
November Rain - Mexico, April 2016 (2nd night)
Knockin On Heavens Door - Nashville 2016
Nightrain - Houston 2016

Patience - LA 2016
Madagascar - Chorzow 2018
The Seeker - San Diego 2016
Paradise City - Foxboro 2016

 

Notes:
Mr. Brownstone - A hybrid of Troubadour/Vegas would be the best, switching when Axl breaks his foot to the 'throne' show. Otherwise, Vegas 2016 (2nd night).
DTJ - This song could be picked from dozens of shows but it's gotta have a 'Home Fuck'. :lol:
LALD - I'm sure there's some performances with better screams, but I picked Curitiba because the first scream sounds good while he's running, so it'd be a good performance for a video release IMO.
Slither - Excluded because I've yet to hear one with a good chorus.
The other CD songs - 4 is enough, but if someone can find a better CITR or Madagascar then please post it.
Attitude/New Rose - Who really wants this?
Godfather, WYWH, Layla - 'No solos' seems pretty obvious, especially since there's extended solos in DTJ and RQ.
KOHD - Honestly I just picked a random one that wasn't 12 minutes.
Adler songs - Maybe add them as 'bonus tracks' but I really doubt they'd use guest appearances on a live album. That also means no Angus Young, Dave Grohl, Baz, Pink, or anyone else I'm forgetting.
Extra covers - Wichita and The Seeker should be the extent of the 'extra covers', even Wichita is a bit much but Guns version is really nice, so fuck it, Wichita Lineman can be included.

 

What do you guys think?

I like my Michelle Arlington. It wasn’t the raspiest but it was the sharpest which brought it closer to how he’d sing it in the 80’s. 

Its so easy seems easy to pick but I want one where he correctly finishes the last lines. He’s suppose to say “hell its so easy” but half the time he just says “it’s so easy, so fu*kin easy” over and over again. I think he did it right in Vegas night 1 but night 2 messed up. 

Witchita Lineman from Hawaii was the best I’ve heard from Axl. He finished the last note without taking a breath in between and seemed to have it dialed in how he wanted.

For those with more research into the performances, what are the best performances of TWAT, Prostitute, Catcher in the Rye and Sorry?

And for OTGM/My Michelle, obv the first Adler performance is the definitive one.

Sorry -Arlington

Catcher - Houston

TWAT- San Diego/Mexico was good vocally but Slash wasn’t all that great on it

Prostitute- unsure?

The best TWAT was Mexico 2016 his voice didn’t crack and he nailed the high ass note

a ton better than San Diego 2016

Houston 2016.

Vegas for audio, but I really do not want to watch a bluray with Axl sitting in the chair.

I know what you’re saying, but if it were to be a compilation of all different shows, I’d like at least a couple tracks showing “the throne”. That was a major part of the history of the tour, so a couple tracks on there to commemorate that would be cool...

Gotta put OTGM/My Michelle with Adler. That was a flawless performance that needs to be on a live release.

Agreed 1000%

Paradise City from Minneapolis.  That was the only one where Axl didn't sing over Slash's intro leads with Mickey and he actually blew the whistle at the right time.

And I do have to say the best live and let die for me is Detroit. They reinvigorated that song for me in 2016. It was so great live. But Detroit because of the screams plus it was solid and the moment with Slash 

 

2016 definitely gave me new love for the song too.. specially the version Noise Pollution used for his multicam.. Not sure if the audio was from this show or not.

SCOM - NONE! With Axl's current voice, this song just sucks IMO

It only works when there is a loud crowd singing over/harmonizing with him.

Chinese Democracy - Moscow 2018

Welcome to the jungle - Chicago 2016

Shadow of your love - Chorzów or Taipei

Paradise City- Hawaii

Madagscar - Oslo 2018

Don't Cry - Chorzów 2018

SCOM - The Forum 29/11/17

Live And Let Die - Washington DC 2016

He sounds like fucking beast on this screams and they are pretty long

Also Nightrain from Chorzów has a special place in my heart... He sounds great on intro there and whole performance of this song was one of the best in 2018

Was Houston’s Nightrain much different from what we generally heard on that leg? Coachella’s soundboard version sounds fucking awesome, is Houston really better than that one?

That one was kinda random, I'm hoping people start posting better versions of Nightrain, SCOM, KOHD, etc... but Houston is a good 'standard' performance.

The songs with Adler or Angus would be cool but I think the 'main set' should have no guests... if they actually release a live album I hope those are 'bonus tracks' tho.
