valengf Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I do not know if it has been posted but man, I'd have loved to be right there in that moment. I'd like to hear Axl sing some acoustic shit like Steven Tyler has done recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BreakDown2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Yeah Axl sounds great! And West seems to be completely fucked up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amish Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I've always thought that bit of Yesterdays sounded terrible. Axl's screech doesn't fit well with that shitty acoustic being played. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSoftie Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Damn, he makes it look so effortless right there. Sounds fantastic when he's not pushing too hard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IncitingChaos Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 My favorite thing about Axl is he can screech his voice or he could sing like he did on patience. I wish he would use the softer voice more on songs like this but it's his voice he can do what he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludurigan Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 (edited) I have seen this clip in MTV Rockstory like 20 years ago or something.This is just terrific stuff. Priceless footage.You can't help but wonder how much more of that was recorded by MTV on that particular night.Did they tape that for like 5 minutes? 20 minutes? More?How much more of that jkind of footage was taped but never aired?What about "casual" recordings of the band playing acoustic stuff made "at home"?Like private tapes made by friends, girlfriends, family members and the guys themselves?We have seen the Hollywood Rose home made "promo video" that Axl, Izzy and Chris Weber did.So you can tell that even before Guns n' Roses these guys were no stranger to having video cameras with/around them.Marc Canter has tons of footage.He said that he even has some footage of the band putting together Sweet Child o' Mine.Wow.How cool is that?I can only wonder how much of that type of footage is hidden somewhere, forgotten in somebody's basement."Casual" footage of Guns n' Roses playing acoustic stuff.That kind of stuff is GN'R Holy Grail.

Obsession Of Vanity Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 That kind of stuff is GN'R Holy Grail. That stuff is definitely cool, but to me, the GNR Holy Grail is all the proshot stuff out there that'll never see the light of day. The 2010/2006 documentaries and concerts. That's what I dream of.

Snowmass Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 The Holy Grail is the UYI tour stuff that will hopefully be released one day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Axl in his prime. Nobody in rock could touch him at that point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludurigan Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Axl in his prime. Nobody in rock could touch him at that point.Exactly.This is the best rock n roll singer ever, at his absolute prime.I say more.I say Axl 1987-1991 is still untouchable.No one, ever, was that good.I love Bon Scott and Joey Ramone and Layne Staley and Steven Tyler and Bruce Dickinson and many other singers.None of them could touch Axl from 1987 to 1991.Same if you think about the bands.AC/DC, Ramones, Aerosmith, Rolling Stones, Alice in Chains...All fantastic.But GNR 1987-1991 is still better than all of them together.That's why everything from that era is GNR Holy Grail.I just can't have enough of it.
