People might think I'm crazy, but from day one I felt Rocky Mountain Way by Joe Walsh vibes in Monsters too, mainly due to the vocal effects in the verses. It feels 1970s retro to me.
It's funny because, in general (no pun intended), I don't care at all about demos/different mixes for other bands. When it comes to GNR and the Chinese Democracy era, I would absolutely kill to hear that stuff.
I've listened back to the cellphone clip a few times since Monsters leaked and to me it sounds like the original solo was probably better than Slash's as absurd as that is to say due to the quality. 😂
Man, it has been nothing but negativity since the tour ended with sexual harassment/assault allegations and Frank Ferrer's divorce. 😳
I thought you were talking about Axl at first. 😂
I'd be super cool with that! State of Grace really grew on me. The high notes at the end are awesome!
Yeah, I think with a little tinkering they could've easily completed it. To me, it's a simple song, but Axl's voice is so good on it.
Thank you so much! I always get a little nervous when I promote my content on here because I don't want to annoy anyone. Your kind words mean a lot to me!
