KiraMPD Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Move to the CityOne in a MillionYou're Crazy - Lies versionThey all have such a nice groove to them as well as thought provoking lyrics. I like You're Crazy acoustic version but I wish they had also added an acoustic version of Mr. Brownstone cuz the recording from CBGB was awesome!

Changes Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Mama Kin - Patience - Lies versionBut really, of the acoustics I could have chosen either one. Used To Love Her is the song currently on my playlist and I can't get enough of it. Patience is a bit worn out for me but it is undoubtedly a masterpiece.

Guest Len B'stard Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 i think its a shame that Guns spent so much time like...y'know, effectively not releasing product, the original band i mean. See i have a theory, i think, there's a certain period where a band are just fucking shit hot. And it's something that, when it's there and when the matierial is pouring out of them and they're in good practise from touring and shit, they should just fucking release shit. I mean the fucking quality of Lies to me is phenomenal. And the fact they cracked out a lot of that second side on the same day in the studio just goes to show how fuckin shit-hot they were. I guess when you're in the situation it's important to guard against an inclination to just go in there and start releasing everything and end up putting out sub-standard matierial but like, fuck that, i mean, look at The Clash, that whole period from London Calling through to Sandinista and Combat Rock they were just on fire and going for it and, whatever the reviews of the time might've been like (they were brilliant for London Calling and Combat Rock anyway, not so much for Sandinista) there's a wealth of matierial out there. Like Joe Strummer said, for better or worse it's a document of where that band were at musically in that particular moment. And anyway, i don't think a band of GnR's calibre could've possibly made a shit album the way they appeared to be at that time.I suppose Guns sort of did do what The Clash did i guess, releasing the illusions albums at the same time and everything but, y'know, that whole period between like 87 to 91, could've really pounded it out it sounds like.

GivenToFly Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 i think its a shame that Guns spent so much time like...y'know, effectively not releasing product, the original band i mean. They have something like 66 (iirc) songs officially released. That's quite a lot for that period. '87-'93 that's six years, that's 11 songs per year on average, one normal length album per year. It's a decent output I'd say. Of course, I would have loved to have more, I love almost everything they put out (there are like 5 songs or so that I don't adore), but I can't say there's very little material.

So it's kinda like a document of the time if that makes sense. Was just a passing thought though, you can't dictate peoples behaviour to them in that way. I just meant with certain artists like, John Lennon or The Clash they kind of made albums and pushed them out and then onto the next, it made it so they could comment on current affairs and, even outside of that, i'm not saying they shoulda been some current affairs band or anything, it'd just be nice to have like...that kind of...feel to an album where its like, reflective of a band as they were at a particular place and time. I'm not griping or anything, as i say, was just a passing 'wouldn't that be nice?' kinda thought. I suppose if you record everything within a certain period then it is reflective of them within a certain place and time but y'know what i mean, creatively speaking.

James Bond Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Nice BoysOne In A MillionLies version of You're CrazyThis.Nice Boys might be a cover but it sure rocks hard. One in a Million is questionable lyrically of course but musically it kicks ass. Great solo from Slash and the vocally melody works nicely with the chords. Good arrangement overall. You're Crazy benefits from being slowed down, I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
