That would be amazing banter if Axl released Evaders 'Remix' on a 'B' side for Perhaps!! Be the biggest bait & switch of all time.
Just imagine:
Axl: 'Yeah, we had a song called the General which was kind of a moody epic but then I was on the fan boards & came across Evaders remix. Needless to say - put our version to shame so we scrapped the original & had to release the Evader Remix & get out to the fans as quick as we could. This is my true creative vision realised for the General.'
