Gackt Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 1 minute ago, rocknroll41 said: So Lafon said that there will be enough vynil to count on two hands, right? So that means at least six LPs. We know that the original album is just one LP, so I'm guessing that discs 2 and 3 will equate to LPs each. But that still only adds up to five LPs (which you could count on one hand, not two). So that means disc 4 is probably also audio, and not a DVD or BluRay. stay tuned for the next episode of CSI:GNR They could stretch Appetite into 2 LP's on a nice, thick heavyweight vinyl. I could see it being a blood-splatter design too instead of just plain black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean what would you expect for that because there's a possibility that you'll already own most of the stuff on previous GNR albums. I mean seriously are you willing to pay those amounts of money for a couple of tracks that were at the time only good enough for the cutting room floor. Serious answer = ALL studio sessions from the Appetite era this includes the already mentioned Mystic, Pasha and Sound City sessions (am I forgetting any?) and who knows how many more studio sessions do they have in the vault (I am guessing some more!) all in fantastic quality including the stuff that is not circulating in bootlegs = 10 professionally recorded live shows (audio) from that same era, including at least 3 that were never in circulation in bootleg format with no overdubs whatsoever, no re-recordings, and properly mixed (meaning specially that izzy's guitar is as loud and as listenable as slash's!) OK, i can take 4 or 5 shows if they dont have 10! = 5 Hours of unfinished ideas/songs from Appetite era i dont care it it is taken from studio recordings, soundchecks, rehearsals, acoustic home recordings... just give us all the incomplete songs/unfinsihed ideas that most definetely were tried on the Appetite era. I am confident there is pure gold on it! Just remember that You Could Be Mine, Perfect Crime and lots of other songs were written on that era = 5 DVDs of live shows from the Appetite era i dont mind if they include the Ritz or any other show that is already in circulation but please give us at least like 2 complete and uncirculated live video recordings that would be very satisfying to me!

Stiff Competition Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 If it's cut at 45rpm, it will take up more space, therefore more albums 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNRfanMILO Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) Guys, let’s not forget that Amazon shows a ‘Deluxe Edition’ and a ‘Super Deluxe Edition’. I’m sure the Deluxe Edition is the 4CD one, and the Super Deluxe Edition is more like what Mitch Lafon and Troccoli have been saying.

Stretching the original album to two LPs, I mean. It'd help the sound quality to get the most out of the remaster; sound thins out the closer you get to the center of the vinyl, so having the album across two LP's can improve the quality of the music itself instead of compacting it into one LP.

AxlRoseCDII Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I love how this fan base gets something new and there’s still complaints. 2018 was going to be a lull year anyways and there is no new album in the immediate horizon. Be happy with what we have. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
default_ Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) I like the title, thank god for them not trying to be deep and emotional. Its just simple, dumb and drunk rock n roll.

Idk what the "no" is about .. I grew up loving Adler and Izzy. The more that's revealed the more I've become disenchanted, particularly with Adler. I can not take that guy seriously as a person. And yes I love Appetite and yes I love his drumming. But what I've come to realize, especially as a musician myself, is that the "mistakes" the human element to that album is what gave it character. They left in a ton of that stuff most likely cause they all had that punk attitude and delivery. What's entertaining to think about now is that everyone fell in love with it errors and all. So now when they don't hear the same "mistakes" the quirks like the speeding up and slowing down of tempo, the swing that the beats had at times, those are all character quirks that nobody can totally duplicate other then the person themself. Imho Adler dosnet play the same as he did when I hear him do the Appetite material now. For starters he's not hitting nearly as hard as he did when he was younger, that crisp attack is gone.

DieselDaisy Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) $45 per compact disc! My $650 for a box with Milf Tracy and Roberta inside seemed the better deal! Edited May 3, 2018 by DieselDaisy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colonizedmind Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 The Amazon price and little details are usually just placeholder...I wouldn't take it as concrete yet... also I believe this will be a tiered release...there's gonna be 3/4 (possibly more) different packages, that tailors to each and every budget....

gimmiefuel Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 For comparison, Metallica's Deluxe Box of Master of Puppets for $150 has four vinyl records (includes MP3 Download Cards), five CDs, one DVD, a hardcover book including never before seen photos and a patch.

Gordon Comstock Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 The tagline of "Locked N' Loaded" reminds me of their (also tacky and poorly named) 2014 Vegas residency: "An Evening of Destruction - No Trickery!". But I don't care about the title, as long as whatever's included is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
