This track was recorded around 1990 or so, during the UYI sessions but ultimately rejected:
Correction, Bring it back home is not from the UYI sessions. It was recorded during the Appetite sessions. First time i've heard this was in 1989 when i got a cassette (from a friend) with all kinds of G N' R demo's (Crash diet, Just another sunday, Back off bitch, Don't cry, Yesterdays, The Garden, Welcome to the jungle...) Do a small test. Search for demo's from the UYI sessions and compare them with this.
Correction! They are Pre-Appetite Demos With Del james and others on guitars. There is no way this is Slash, and they wouldn't have needed a drum machine. (can't remember where ) but I read Axl was asked why wasn't Crash Diet included included on a CD and he said something like... it seemed those songs were all about Del james and others more than GN'R. So, It's not Slash on those demos. I believe it's Del and others recorded back in the Hell House days.

It's probably the same hat Axl wore in the "Making F#@king Vidoes" Video.

Some people just don't realize that AFD is ALL killer, NO filler. Every track on that record is great, and anything goes is no exception. Fantastic guitar work, one of the best examples of how well Slash & Izzy work together, plus it's got a great, catchy chorus.
THIS!

I seem to remember it being earlier in the year like Jan. or Feb. 1994 'Cause the album came out in Nov. 1993
-
I still have my old magazines with every poster and photo from them (all GN'R related of course).

Thanks for the book Marc. It's awsome. I'm happy to own it

Axl is SOOOO full of shit. when he feels like he's lost something, he sues! He sued geffen to stop the release of Greatest Hits,
He sues Former band members, he sued his manager Azoff, Now he sues Activsion. I'm sick of his stupidity. Thinking Axl
will stop sueing people everythime he "thinks" he's been wronged is like thinking Steven will stop doing drugs every time he gets wasted. It just isn't going to happen. so why waste our time?
-
The myth was better than the CD. But at least it came out, so....meh?
-
Axl is suck a dick. I lose more respect for him everytime he does stupid shit like this.
This is why the band broke up, Axl's stupidity and his control issues.

No. I think the only people who cared or bought CD were on GN'R forums.
And that's the only role we played.
Lets see, the biggest GNR forum is Mygnr and this place has just over 30,000 member.........worldwide CD sold 5 million. You're terrible at math.
I wouldn't flatter your self too much. I'm sure we played no role on getting CD released. All we did was buy it.

Yeah, "Slash" was a total and complete failure.
In quality or sales? I like every song on "Slash" as oposed to only a few of the VR songs.
"Slash" is Awsome.
-
An excellant suggestion. But I know Axl would like to cut all ties to the old band. He even sued to not have Greatest Hits released.
-
Why doesn't Slash just "magically" find a room at the same hotel as Axl while they are on tour ... then "magically" run into him in the hallway ... then "magically" suck Axl's cock so that Axl will invite him on stage?
Slash can just make up an excuse that he was "there for business" and would save face.
It worked for Duff ... so why can't it work for Slash?
LMAO!!!
No reunion is going to happen. The best anyone of you Slasholes can wish for is a "guest spot" - and that is already asking for too much.
The only people who would benefit from a reunion are: Steven, Slash, Duff, and Matt.
Izzy could give a rats ass. He gets stage fright on the big stage. Slash, Duff, and Matt need exposure for the new VR band. Steven, the poor soul, has been living his AFD days for like the past 30 years, he just needs a taste of the "real thing" one last time ... before he ODs for good.
A reunion does nothing for Axl. A reunion would be the end of Axl and any new GnR music.
Like it or not, GnR is what is today. CD is closer to the experimental and edgy sound of AFD than all the non-ballads on UYI and any of the other music put out by any of the old members.
Now remember folks why the old GnR broke up. Axl wanted more creative music from the band, while folks like Slash and Duff were stuck to their current sound - which by the way has not progressed one bit. Had Axl agreed to release music like that found on Snakepit or Duff's loaded crap, GnR would have surely died in '96 for good. And VR was (or is) no better either.
So just be happy that Axl knew well enough what was in the best interest in GnR's long term success.
Thanks to Axl's decisions, GnR still lives today and still has the opportunities to continue to create experimental and edgy new music that nobody else can match in both skill and creativity.
So, here is a toast for CD II, CD III, CD IV, and so on.
The past needs to stay buried in the past. Live and let die!
this is the biggest peice of crap i've ever heard and contradicts everything that we know about Axl and GN'R.

is there a link to this interview please?
-
The first solo notes in the intro of this song is the worst i've ever heard. The
solo for the song is the 2nd worst thing i've ever heard, it's so sloppy. I hate it.
The leaked version is better.
-
ORIGINAL GN'R = 10
NEW GN'R = 2
-
One in a million (not due to lyrics but Slash's solo's is so amazing!)
Reckless life (love the lyrics)
Nice Boys (stevie's drumming is awsome)
Think about you (very underrated song on AFD)
Whole lotta' Rosie (best live version)
Coma (need I say more?)
-
Was there not a quote at some point (I'm not sure if it was Axl or Slash), but did Slash not start writing with Izzy again in the 90's, and the material that they produced had the potential to be the best GNR record yet?..
LA
Yes, it was Slash refering to the songs him and the band wrote with Izzy Pre-VR.
-
no thanks, stevens book is enough. and most people don't even care about that one.
-
Read steven's book to find out.
I think his track record proves why he was booted. DRUGS.
-
I'm all about the original GN'R, Great song!
Haha good find.
-
I could care less about Axl making new music with his band. Frankly CD was mediocre at best.
If it ain't the original members. Then it's just another band. GN'R changes members so much
you don't have time to care about them. It's just like..... NEXT? Original members are all that
matters, (to me anyways) on stage or in the studio.

Hmm, a good read. But doesn't help with who played on these songs or when they were recorded. I Don't believe those songs are full GN'R based on what I've read over the years on these forums. I believe it to be West arkeen and Del on those songs. But I couldn't prove it. To me, it's the drum machine that gives it away. I thought it was common knowledge West Arkeen plays gutiar on Crash Diet.
