Sosso Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) I'm listening to a lot of the pre-AfD bands right now. Songs from Hollywood Rose, the L.A. Guns EP (the only known recordings with Ole Beich and Rob Gardner) and Rapidfire. Which of those songs are your favourites?

Derick Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Reckless Life is on top to me, but I also like a lot Anything Goes, Rocker and Killing Time..From Rapid I like Prowler and Closure. Well it´s been awhile since I´ve heard these songs and I´ll back to this right now!! Thanks for the "up"!!Haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hollywood Rose version of Reckless Life is actually better than the one on Lies and Shadow Of Your Love seems like a early blueprint to Welcome To The Jungle.

Derick Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 @Sosso About Reckless..Between the demo and the mixed ones ... Which one do you like the most? I started liking the mixed version(Gilby) more but today I prefer the demo one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard choice... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverburst80 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Reckless Life and Shadow Of Your Love (the GNR versions) just tear your face off, it's like punk and ACDC made sweet love. That song Closure by Rapidfire really is a great little tune, i guess the earliest indication of what Axl was capable of and that he was a little out of the ordinary.

Live Like a Suicide Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 (edited) You really can't surpass Shadow of Your Love. Honestly, it should have replaced Anything Goes on AFD. Edited October 21, 2017 by Live Like a Suicide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Shadow Of Your love and Reckless Live.. Both top fucking notch... The Guns N' Roses versions were best though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigpoop Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Reckless Life and Shadow of Your Love - the Guns N' Roses versions. The 'wake up it's time to play' version of Shadow of Your Love is one of the best GNR songs imo. It' so raw and real. Just listened to it now and goddamn could Axl sing back then. The Hollywood Rose version of Anything Goes was interesting to hear but it's not nearly as good as the Appetite version, and Rocker is okay but not really that great. I don't really know all the rapidfire stuff but what I have heard of it isn't so hot. Never heard any of the LA Guns one, don't even know what's on that.

DieselDaisy Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 'Move to the City' was co-written by Chris Weber (with Izzy and Del James) so it was definitely something that had been floating around during the Hollywood Rose days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludurigan Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 the entire hollywood rose cd is fantastic i am still hoping for more good quality recording of hollywood rose to surface, including live, rehearsals and studio check the potential of this = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ebld8-1tnmM&t=260s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoop Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Yeah I thought the OP was referring to some demo with Tracii and Axl or something. I'd never heard of there being one but I'm not an expert on these things. That EP there I have no real interest in hearing even though I do like LA Guns. As far as Move to the City, I knew it was an older song but I've just never heard any pre-Guns versions. I don't think there even are any out there but like I said...not a bootleg expert.
