Really like Zodiac.

That version of Atlas is good quality. Really clear.

So does this Atlas sound like a final mix?

Very close I would say.

Different versions of Chinese Democracy, Prostitute, The Blues, Riad, TWAT and Altlas Shrugged.

Thanks.

Fuck yes it is! 

No, just Quick Song and Zodiac are instrumental. Everything else has vocals. 

Any idea what else is on there?

Was this one of the rough mixes discs?

Sorry guys for the question... but who is macdaddy? what does it mean???

You’re a Macdaddy!

A guy who has power over women.

in this case it’s a lyric within the song.

Can someone remix it, and remove the mcdaddy stuff?

Other than that, its catchy as, and brilliant album filler.

Axl has his eye on You for saying you want to remove the macdaddy!

Anyone decipher lyrics for this one?

It's definitely Axl. Classic raspy deep voice.

Cheers. Didn’t think it was, will need to give it a few more listens.

Not too keen on this one after a few listens.

 Who is it that is saying ‘who’s the macdaddy’? Doesn’t sound like Axl.

The more I listen to this, the more I love it. Sounds sleazy and has me hooked. Axl’s voice really gels with it, it feels so fresh. 

That second ‘still remember your name’ before it really kicks in is killer.

We're back!  I took some notes of what's to come:

 

I cannot help but laugh at the Mac daddy line.

There were two threads about the piano demo. 

Do I have it right that there are two tracks? One is a piano demo and the other is a demo of Better? 

That’s right. The better one is called Three Dollar Pyramid 

Pretty cool. Love the piano. 

Three dollar pyramid is out. It’s a instrumental of ‘Better’ basically.

As It Began is out there too. Basically another instrumental but it’s piano driven. Sounds pretty good.

Said it in other threads but it’s absolutely criminal that some of this stuff was never released. Why on earth people got in Axl’s ear and told him it wasn’t good enough is beyond me. 

Sure, some of it isn't to everyone’s taste but some of the things GNR had already released wasn’t to everyone’s liking. 

Absolutely unreal to think what we could have had in 2000/01 if only Axl had literally stuck to his guns.

Mental 😂 love the drums. 

It’s about Slash😉

There's no melody in lyrics,no melodic chorus,just a backing track that Axl was forced to put lyrics on it

Nothing that can make me wanna listen to this song twice

just my personal taste.some may like it.i don't

The 20 years of waiting creates a myth about smth...then you listen to it...it's no good...just because it has axl on it doesn't make it a good song

Not criticising, was just curious. Personally I like it but it’s all down to personal preference.

Absolute mess,interesting baba o' rilley-like intro and then...nope

Out of curiosity what don’t you like about it?

This is super catchy after a few listens. When I take my headphones off I’m humming away. 

I quite like it. After the first listen I wasn’t sure at all but I could see this being a single from the band should they choose to release it.

The solo towards the end is magic and I really like Axl’s voice in the song. 

Can anyone make out the lyrics to this?

That bass on chinese democracy....god almighty it rocks.

Atlas sounds great from this medley. Why on earth Axl decided to release stuff like Riad over this is baffling.   

Really loving this. God knows what else is lying away in those vaults. An absolute travesty some of this stuff wasn't released.
