SweetRose Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Been listening to Jumpin Jack Flash in the car here lately. I really love the stripped down,rough,raw sounding vocals on there. I would really like to hear more vocals like that from Axl. He gets into that bluesy,swaggering rock sound. You can tell he is feeling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumblefeet Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Riff Raff is great, but I personally like Sympathy for the Devil best. I really want to see a live version of it with the current drunk, display designing, kickstarter lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fin Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Nearly all GnR covers are better than their originals. Much better sound quality, mixing, instruments, vocals, everything.GnR's Down On the Farm is a million times better than the original for example.

LTD Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Some of the covers Axl's band does work pretty well. Nov Rain and Don't Cry sometimes sound almost as if it was GNR. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satanisk_Slakt Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I had forgotten about that performance. What the fuck are Slash and Gilby doing during the whole song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockerman Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 wow now that i think about it.. GNR was always a cover band.Find me a band then that's been going for 30 years and do no coversThat wasnt a slack towards GNR.. just a huge number of covers ..rather they be album fillers, solo spots or concert staples. with bar band its normal and expected- but when you get to the national/international level.. its paying homage to the music that inspired you. In this statement is my disdain for the new band being more or less a cover band/parody of itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dando Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I like a couple of covers in a 25+ song gig but Guns actually released knockin and live n let die, one could be dropped if they're going to keep the seeker in the set. I've always liked Rosie. Way round it would be longer setlists maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
