I've always loved the Gn'r demo but who made the original song? Is the gn'r version a cover? Is this a cover? What the fuck is going on.

Well the demo is from the Rumbo Records tapes (1986-ish maybe older?)

The Asphalt Ballet version was released in 1994.

Wildside’s version was from their 2004 album.

...chronologically speaking, it’s a cover. Also the ASCAP website lists Axl as one of the writers [link]. From whatever I’ve read, this song was not supposed to be a GnR song but more of an Axl, West and friends messing around...

Oh ok thanks for clearing that up. The solo sure as hell doesn't sound like a gn'r solo. But cool song none the less.

I'm looking forward to the new mix.

I freaking LOVE that solo. Apparently West did that solo which (if true) totally blows my mind cuz I'd always imagined him to be more of the hippy ya-ya guy on an acoustic.

Actually, can anyone confirm who did that solo? Was it really West?

Posted at the request of a friend. Looks interesting to be fair and usually I fucking hate these things.

Sounds cool, but tell your friend he's wrong about who is playing - Slash isn't on that, it's West Arkeen.

I find it funny that the versions after the demo we all know, sounds more dated & cheesy then this 1st version. If the Asphalt Ballet one was released in 96 its even more laughable.

IMO the bucket era guns would have done a cool version of this song though.

Its a fun song.

that song sucks and I don't understand why people like it. there is a reason it was never developed and released by the band. :rolleyes:

Crash Diet's the best of the old unfinished ones.

Of course it's fanmade. 5agge remixes a lot of stuff. They're the person that did the Chinese Democracy Revisited EP. Listen to Messages from Madagascar. It's great.

Madagascar was OK. I liked the If the World/Slither mashup and the Nightmareline Blues. The rest though...

Someone should have kept his damn editing tools away from him when he did Prostitute, Sorry, Scraped, and Better. :no:

I'm not liking this Crash Diet one. I'll take the demo.

Ugh, this sounds like a complete mess.

Are we talking about Chinese Democracy?

Excellent trolling, I award you 10 points.

The added on vocal effects and background voices sound fucking terrible. The mixed-in bits of Civil War and stuff are also a poor fit. I liked some of 5agge's other mix-ups but this one...no, I'd rather listen to the original demo any day.
