Guest Apollo Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 So back in the mid to late 80's there was a half-rap half rock song. I can't remember if the song was called black and white or if the band was called black and white.But it was made up of some of the up-and-coming famous rockers of the generation.I'M 90 percent positive that both Vince Neil and Axl Rose sang back up on it.I can't even remember all the lryics except one part was I seen her last night at the rainbow bar and grill . . . . (something something) she wanted to give me a thrill . . .It came out on a cassette tape and had 2-3 versions of the song. Anybody remember?

worldwideboss Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 I googled those lyrics and the only thing close was Reverend Horton Heat's Rockin' Dog, but it's from 1994... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallagher Rose Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 It's by a group called Black and White I believe. It's two groups that joined together to do a cd, one of them is Guns and Roses the other one I can't remember. The name of the song is "Rainbow bar and girls" part of the lyrics go,The title says girl but the lyrics say grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The name of the song is "Rainbow bar and girls" part of the lyrics go,The title says girl but the lyrics say grillThat's what I found on a Crüe fansite:late 88Vince and Tommy team up with Axl Rose and Slash from Guns N’ Roses and with rap band Black N White to release a rap song called Rainbow Bar & Girls for Atlantic Records on both cassette-single and 12” maxi single formats. Lizzie Grey, who co-wrote Public Enemy #1 on Mötley’s first album, receives a song writing credit for this track that goes Gold, selling over half a million copies in the U.S. alone.Chronological CrüeIt's also listed in Axls discography on htgth.com too, but I've never heard (of) that song before.

Estranged Reality Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 http://www.discogs.com/release/503069To set the record straight: This track was really by a group called "London a/k/a D'Priest". True these guys rapped the verses under hire by London, but this was not their record. Atlantic pulled it off the market after discovering the fraud. Signed by Sean Lewis, a/k/a guitarist for London who played the lead guitar track on this cut!Cross-referenced:http://www.fullinbloommusic.com/londonnadirinterview.htmlFIBM: You were interviewed for Behind the music with Guns n Roses. I have not seen it yet, so I don't know if your parts were included, but what were your experiences with Axl Rose? Any good stories and did they include your parts?Nadir: They did not include my parts and maybe one day you can ask Axl himself, tired of the same question everywhere I go.I had $1.50 left over from an Amazon gift card and decided to download the track.Let me be perfectly honest: it's probably one of the all-time worst songs i've ever heard. It's just incredibly awful.Holy SHIT that song was bad. What a waste of a dollar.I didn't even hear Axl on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
