oh man, I LOVE that one... Fucking killer.. Was that from Tokyo 88?

To be honest I don't know.

Certainly at the time the album came out, I didn't know half the stuff I do now about GNR (no internet)...but that one just shines.

I can't bring myself to hate Phil or his band.

No, they aren't a stadium filler or deserve to be...but I take no delight in his ugly behaviour and exit from ACDC.

Lord knows I've done some really dumb shit in my time, I'll give Phil a pass.

No matter what, he's still a bona fide legend of rock in my book, false teeth and all.

And the mental side also comes out in his playing. On those later Peppers albums, he wasn't just making riffs, he was taking the music to a certain place. Putting feelings into it. Digging deep on his guitar.

His work on Stadium Arcadium is inspired.

GNR fan since the ass end of the 80's, bought this live album in that horrible, GNR deprived time and fucking hated it.

I fucking hate it.

I love Guns N roses, but it's a shit live album.

You're Crazy is head and shoulders the best thing about it.

I like his contributions to songs like Nightrain, You Could Be Mine and Rocket Queen. I've learned to play the keyboard because of him.

LOL

IRS from this was and still is fucking monumental.

I've probably already posted that in here, but it's still relevant.

The album version SUCKS thanks to Thal's directionless noodling through the whole fucking song, but IRS is probably my pick of all the CD stuff and the most like classic GNR.

I'd love to hear Slash tear it up.

Midnight Rambler

Ventilator Blues

Hand Of Fate

100,000 Years

Heartbreaker

Gimme Shelter

We Love You

Thief In The Night

Dancing With Mr D

Happy

Probably all come off Abbey Road and The White album.

You Never Give Me Your Money is out of this fucking world.

Not gonna list 10, but if I did a lot of them would be off Stadium Arcadium disc one.

I fucking hate Radiohead, and have done since they broke through.

Continue.

A few Australian entries, my mum was an aerobics instructor sooo yeah this shit getting played a little too often around my house. Absolutely stunningly awful shit.

 

I had a real thing for Collette.

Fuck, I still do.

I picked up The (first) Secret History book a while ago, highly recommended.

Probably an Izzy album, or Chinese Democracy.

And I don't think all that much of Izzy's albums, which is a pretty good indication of what I think about the other guy's solo efforts.

Slash has done a few songs I really liked (most of which are on the self titled album) , but most I don't rate at all.

Duff? Embarrassingly bad, he's great in Guns but oh my god his solo stuff/Loaded is fucking dire.

Adler? Nah man.

Ron (and Frank) only made the songs worse, to my ears.

The skwerl leaks (and earlier) sound way better.

For example, Ron just clogged IRS up with directionless noodling, those spaces were one of the great things about that song and I fucking hate the album version.

I hate what they did to the title track too, and that horrible solo on Rhiad.

Don't get me wrong, Slade is fucking awesome too but I could never say I prefer him over Rudd in ACDC.

It's great he's got another go and it's the one sunny bit of news in the recent list of ACDC tragedies, but Phil is the man for ACDC.

I was getting into Sabbath around that time too, really into bands that were sort of on the periphery like Helmet,Kyuss and stuff and remember Chaos AD by Sepultura and Vulger by Pantera were on heavy rotation...i got into AIC later down the line out of the grunge scene and love them, though really they are just a hard rock/metal band at the end of the day. Was discovering gritty east coast Hip hop too around that time, 93-97 so much great hip hop being released.

Good times. Ditto on the Pantera/Sepultura, chuck in some Primus and Bungle.

Towelie dislikes Paradise City yet loves generic nu metal like Art Of Anarchy.

Go figure.

One band or trend doesn't wipe out the last band. I didn't throw my GNR in the bin because I like FNM or Nirvana too. But the media discourse did change, but that didn't effect my box of tapes. I also got old stuff like Stones and Zepp who weren't doing as many interviews. But I could read old interviews and books. I got into The Doors through the movie. 

So true.

When Nirvana, Pearl Jam etc were blowing up I was getting into (70's) Black Sabbath.

Chris Slade is the best drummer AC/DC has ever had. I know I was campaigning hard for Simon Wright to come back when it was clear Phil was out, but that was more for setlist reasons - I can honestly say it would've fallen far below the standard Slade has set, again. Both his stints in the band have produced some of the very best AC/DC live performances ever.

 

Bring it Phil fans - he ain't as good as Slade. 

Phil mightn't be as "good" as Slade, but Phil all the way for me.

FACT: Tommy was in the knock off Guns N Roses (as in, in name only) and never had a hand in writing any of the songs people actually went to see that Guns N Roses perform.

FACT: Tommy would probably admit that the above statement is a fact.

But yeah, how good is that one little bit in that one song on Chinese Democracy where you can hear his bass?

Inspired whole new generations of bassists that did.

He's an extremely talented guitarist, shame I find the music that he composes to be fucking rubbish.

He did a good job in the time he had with Axl's band though, that Don't Cry from KROQ 06 is fucking incredible.

Also, LOL Art Of Anarchy.

I hope it's better than the Mr T versus Rowdy Roddy Piper boxing match from WM II
