zigzagbigbag Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 As others already mentioned, this topic should have it’s own thread. So here we go: I don’t need any remasterd version of the UYI albums. The boxset should be: - demos - instrumentals - alternative / rough mixes - unreleased songs (eg Ain‘t goin down) - blu ray: perfect crime documentary (uncensored) - blu rays: three unreleased complete gigs; one of 91, 92 and 93 each - maybe a photobook, but definitely no tshirts or replica bullshit - no reissues of the UYI singles - no audio only live shows The music should be included on vinyl and CD, lets say 4 LPs and 2 CDs. The price should be 250€/$ max. Standalone versions of the vinyl/blu rays would be great for those who are interested in specific items only. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MJRemastered98 Posted July 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2019 Dude, this sounds like a good product that would make the fans happy by giving them what they want and not being over priced, are you sure you are asking this from the right band? 7 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id like to have a simpler remix, where on the album its just the 6 of them, with no of the orchestra parts and a few less overdubs, and maybe boost Izzy in the mix, definitely remix the drums to sound better, a similar mix to the one Slash had, or release that I guess. I'd love 3 shows, but why not have a site, where you can pay to watch them, and upload remastered versions of all proshots they have, even maybe have a signing up fee, thin this idea has been suggested but it makes so much sense, dont know about the pricing im not a businessman 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guitarpatch Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Who knows what’s available after the UMG fire. Realistically I think we’d see: Albums on vinyl/cd/ and possibly cassette Tokyo shows remastered/Blu Ray Demos/unreleased/Spaghetti Incident UYI era UYI bloody logo related merch/lithos Photo Book Singles (You Could Be Mine might be tricky w Terminator 2 image) Possibly: Making FN Videos Pipe Dream: Perfect Crime Doc 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire in an 5.1 mix and we are good to go. I keep harping on about it but what you suggested above is effectively what the Metallica Boxes have (a bit less in those - just one concert on Vinyl) and they retail for about $180. The hardback book in each are great too. Just for laughs, give me a life sized replica of the album cover to hang on the wall! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It's Matt Sorum. Matt confirmed this one day on twitter/facebook. Someone asked him who it was. It's actually just a different mix than the one found on UYI 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soon Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 It seems incredibly likely that the masters were lost in the fire. Which sucks because imho no album in history would benefit more from a top to bottom remix and remaster. Many have noted how UYI light the NITL set lists have been and some speculate that Axl just isnt fond of focusing on that era of his life and the band. I think there could be something to that. The fire could have made Axl very happy that the label cant hoist the remaster reissue UYI onto him. I hope the master exists. Even still, CW was so spliced it would be a miracle if they could play it back (because the sticky tape that holds the cuts together on the tape dries out and the various segments fall apart). BUT: Axl and Slash were both trying to steer the ship during post-production on UYI so its also likely that they each had a master copy in their own possession. So then those master copies would just have to have survived house fires and earth quakes. I'd also like a copy of the 'signing over the name' contract in a box set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there could be something to that. The fire could have made Axl very happy that the label cant hoist the remaster reissue UYI onto him. Yeah I don’t think Axl looks back on UYI fondly either. During the 2001-2002 tour only four UYI songs were played (two of which were covers). Plus, in 1999, he said when he listens back to UYI he can “hear a band dying” and in 2002 he said that during the release of UYI he “suffered a lot internally from the band and externally from the press.” Then in 2009, he said that he wishes the band would’ve just narrowed it down to one album, as he feels that way it would’ve been “more effective and powerful.” so yeah, I don’t think we are gonna get any kind of UYI remaster. Not one endorsed by the band, at least. Would still love a streaming service with all of the pro shot concerts, tho, and the Perfect Crime doc (even if it’s heavily watered down it or includes spliced in interviews of the band today, to get their perspective on all that footage in hindsight). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gordon Comstock Posted July 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2019 I'd like to see these included in a UYI box-set: - "Axl's Advance Copy"/rough mixes of the songs - 1991 warm-up theatre show on cd/blu ray/vinyl (Pantages Theatre, please) - 1992 Paris show on blu ray/vinyl with backstage/rehearsal footage - 1993 Skin N Bones show (from the US or Canada) on blu ray/vinyl - "Rarities" disc: live versions of Coma, Breakdown, Bad Apples, Locomotive, Tie Your Mother Down w/ Brian May, You're Crazy w/ Baz, etc. - Whatever version of the Perfect Crime doc they'd be willing to release 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
