    That's what I'm remembering too about Izzy and VR. He showed up on his own and left when they started looking for a lead singer.

    Didn't Slash mentioned he worked with Izzy before through the years? He mentioned material from The Project sessions which could have been "the best GNR record ever made" or something, but I think he mentioned at least another session where he was involved in writing process with Izzy (and probably Duff) which has never seen the light of day. Is that true?

    I've always wanted to know if that material ("the best gnr record ever made") has ever been used with VR or other projects or if it's still unheard.

    I’m from Brisbane mate, there’s a few of us Aussies on here. And Tasmania is beautiful, only been there once but I remember freaking out climbing Cradle Mountain and worrying about Tiger snakes biting me :-)

    I'm from Tassie as well! SCOM would be the only GnR song I've heard on the radio for a long time - not that I listen to the radio much.

    Who asked for your opinion?? Fact is, it stinks that they are trying to rush everyone into making a decision, when, most likely, every show this year gets postponed. Many people will face the problem of clashing appointments. 

    Who asked for your opinion?

    Its going to be a pretty dull forum if we have to sit around waiting for someone to ask our opinion!

    Can i have your opinion on this @RussTCB  ??:blink:

    richard doesn't know the notes on patience at all ruins the song which i don't understand

    Yes!!! I've been saying this for ages and never heard anyone else mention it!

    Back in Nuguns he used to slaughter it - absolutely appalling.

    I thought it would improve with Slash back but nope - still shit.

    It's bewildering considering its such a simple song to play. One of those songs that's great for beginners.

    To be fair though, and I can't stand Zep btw, the blues which they are accused of ripping off, that entire genre is sort of based on the rip off.  It was a music that came to prominence in a time where music weren't that lucrative and no one gave a fuck about copyright and stuff.  Take any great blues song and try to find the roots of it, it often ain't the cunt whoose most known for it.  And it ain't just the songs, its the music, the riffs, the whole thing is heavily recycled, it was just the way of things.  Take a tune though, take Walkin' Blues, thats a Son House song that Robert Johnson took and recorded and then Muddy Waters took and recorded, they weren't paying each other fuckin' songwriting royalities or laying out credits.  And even Son House took the music of it from my Black Mama, which he did again with Death Letter Blues. 

    Or Catfish Blues, which has got to be top fuckin' 5 of the most well known blues songs ever (not to mention the riff, which is just ubiquitous now), thats a fuckin' Robert Petway song that everybody did their version of and renamed and all sorts, its variously been called Rollin' Stone or Deep Blue Sea or Catfish Blues. 

    So the genre that Zep were kinda working with (or semi working with) is kinda founded in that kinda shit.  And even later, like early early early rock n roll, before Elvis made it REALLY moneyspinning, before Chuck Berry knew there was about to be some good money coming his way, he recorded Maybelline, that shit is Ida Red basically, a reworking of Ida Red.

    I thought Marty McFly invented rock music in 1955!?!

    This is one of my favourite songs they did with Josh, it has that I'm With You vibe, a bit sombre and piano inspired, and with a lot of Josh vocals.

     

    Wow that is a truly awful song! :blink:
