Yesterdays (1988)


Recommended Posts

I'm kinda shocked to realise how little you guys seem to know about GNR when GNR was GNR.

I can't believe all you guys have never heard this one! It's been circulating for years...

From GNR ON TOUR = http://www.gnrontour.com/setlistalm88.htm

01.14.88 - Coconut Teaszer, Hollywood, CA
set: I Got A Line On You, Wishing Well, Communication Breakdown, Scarred For Life, Sentimental Movie, Yesterdays, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, Born To Be Wild, Honky Tonk Women
audio/video recording?: audio
notes: This band is known as the Drunk Fux - Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy, Steven, West Arkeen & Del James. The first performance of 'Yesterdays,' Axl mentions they will try to record it next week. Axl sings lead on 'Yesterdays' & 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door,' and shares vocals on 'Honky Tonk Women.'

I tried to find a download link but I couldn't find any, sorry.

The entire show is terrific, specially "I Got a Line On You" (a Spirit/Randy California cover) and "Scarred For Life" (a Rose Tattoo cover), which are great songs.

It's just too bad Axl doesn't sing all the songs.

I don't normally complain about anything regarding the bands sound on any of the releases, but I wish Axl had sung that song a lot cleaner than he did on the album version. It's such a great tune both musically and lyrically, I just think that if Axl sang it similar to his voice on Live Era or Chinese Democracy, it would have sounded a lot better.

That's great great song anyway! There is also a demo version from 1986...

But...does anyone knows why official video has been removed from youtube (and many other videos with this song) and from videos list on their official site?
