I could swear that Axl said, in that Feb 2006 Rolling Stone interview, that 28 "A-level songs" had vocals, at that time. I don't have it, so, I could easily be wrong. If you count the 14 on CD and we now have, what, 6? Assuming the 6 we have would have been "A-Level" when completed, that means we should have 8 or so left, no?

We know this process was all about refinement. I'm guessing The General was newer, maybe Seven, so, unless those were re-titled and re-tooled from an earlier demo, we probably still need to hear those. We know of a January 2007 Axl vocal recording session, so Axl recorded at least once after the article ran. Guessing that's where the "What'd I Tell Ya!" bit from The Blues came from, but, I obviously can't say for sure.. Who knows what else was worked on? 8 minutes ago, Blackstar said: This one?

Popular Post RussTCB Posted September 30, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 30, 2019 I don't have any interest in getting into some sort of info war, but I want to clarify something I was told about earlier: NO, Bumblefoot does not have a ton of unreleased GNR tracks. And NO, Bumblefoot does not have ANY interesting in selling / leaking them even if he did. I do not like to speak on his behalf, but in this case I feel it's necessary to clarify that point. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for clarifying. I was a bit skeptical that any of the former members would have access to anything like that. Bumblefoot, if I recall, couldn't even bring CDs home to learn the material when he was joining the band/rehearsing for the tour/recording for CD. Even if former members did have anything, the NDAs they signed are probably in perpetuity and would in all likelihood have lawyers raining down on them immediately.

Arnuld Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 I cannot understand why so many people are interested in hearing a re-recorded Appetite. This is the music equivalent of remaking a perfect movie 12 years later with only one member of the original cast. Fact- Axl’s vocals will not be better. Fact- The music sure as shit will not be better Is this just curiosity? A desire for novelty? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangerInThisTown Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) Re-recorded versions of big hits are in like 9/10 cases worse. Mostly because they lack the money to produce it as well as the original was. The only time that's really interesting if they change the arrangement or style a lot. I find demo versions a lot more interesting. I like to listen to the SCOM one for the different solo. Or the Nightrain one because it has a different intro (really badass actually) starting with rain and a train coming on sound and Axls vocals sound a lot meaner in the verses. They didn't even put either that demo on the boxset ffs... Edited October 1, 2019 by StrangerInThisTown 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am interested only because it is known to be already made and I think the fans deserve to at least listen to it should they choose. Sweet Child of course turned to be nothing compared to the original imo, but it was still an interesting take I listen to once in a blue moon. If we had a vote for the future, Id bet almost every one of us would rather just have new music of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t start singing the lyrics in the outro live until 2009, and they did play some gigs in 2007. That to me says those lyrics hadn’t been added yet by the time the 2007 tour started, so it was likely recorded in the second half of 2007 or 2008. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's interesting in some early performances of Better is you can hear Tommy sing the altered chorus from the demo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I heard him sing that at on a Hammerstein boot and/or Download 2006. He must not have heard the latest version of the song at that point It's curious though that Axl got the right number of TWAT screams between the Finck and Bucket solos in 2006, but from 2009 on keeps doing an extra "I would do anything for you, there was a time" over the Bucket solo, as if he were recalling the pre-Bucket solo demo versions of the song.

jamillos Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 So this delay with mix cd 2 definitely suggests some mighty delicious content, at least to me. After all, it's listed right after the first remix cd with all the songs, so it might contain several new songs with vocals... Here's for hoping.

I do like the small organ part Dizzy added to the "where do we go" part of Sweet Child though. Releasing it would have been suicide though.
