OfftheBeatenTrack Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 My first thread here, so if this subject has already been covered, I'm sorry Anyway, a couple of days ago I took to listening to a lot of gigs from this particular tour, and liked it a lot. It's a lot punchier and in-your-face than the rest of the UYI tour, without Tracy, Roberta and the horns, and pretty great setlists. So, what I wanted to do was compile a "best of the 1993 tour" boot, with the best versions of each song of the tour. Almost like a Frankenconcert, if you will. I've already decided on a tracklist, but I'm otherwise clueless on which are considered the best versions of each tune. Any help? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OfftheBeatenTrack Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) And the tracklist I mentioned, of course: 01 It's So Easy 02 Mr. Brownstone 03 The Garden 04 Live and Let Die 05 Welcome to the Jungle 06 Nightrain 07 Attitude 08 Nice Boys 09 Yesterdays 10 Double Talkin' Jive 11 Dead Flowers 12 You Ain't the First 13 You're Crazy 14 Used to Love Her 15 Patience 16 Knockin' on Heaven's Door 17 November Rain 18 Dead Horse 19 You Could Be Mine 20 Sweet Child O' Mine 21 Don't Cry 22 Paradise City I included all the songs they played 15 or more times on the tour, as they were the "mainstays". The only exception is "So Fine", because Duff only got one singing spot then. And I don't really care for the solos that much, so we can ignore them, can't we?

Banesto Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I like Nice Boys from Saskatoon and You Ain't The First from Buenos Aires, but I haven't listened to all shows and then compared, I just like these versions 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RageKage Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Really hard to judge cause there are only a handful decent recordings of that tour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlIsGod. Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Just stick saska on I say. Quality is fire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) They really were on fire that tour.. I don't think the band has ever been tight than they were in 1993. I know you said songs they played 15 times or more but they played a KICK ASS version of Reckless Life at the Boston show.

Ninjapie24 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I would say use the Saskatoon show and fill in the other songs from Buenos Aires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ludurigan Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 the acoustic recording of Dead Flowers that is on the Unplugged bootleg CD is pure gold but of course the best recordings from that tour are the 5 Guns n Roses dates, i.e., the 5 dates when GNR was back together with the line up of Axl, Izzy, Slash, Duff and the other two guys Matt and Dizzy including, obviously, the fantastic Milton Keynes show where they played a fantastic version of Honky Tonk Women too bad there is no SDB recording circulating from any of these 5 GNR dates! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donny Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 the Garden from saskatoon and Patience from the Milton Keynes gig i was at where Izzy, Axl, Duff and Slash start playing/singing Imagine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanfzero Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Nightrain from Argentina 93 is gold. Maybe anything from Hartford 93? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waemoth Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Knockin' On Heaven's Door from Hartford is outstanding. Definitely the best acoustic KOHD to me. Dead Horse from Hartford is also really good. Edited July 30, 2018 by Waemoth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtjmf13 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Dead Horse and Don't Cry from Karlsruhe The Garden from Sacramento Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanfzero Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Y like this high quality clip from Sacramento, It's cool when Axl holds the long note Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endless2404 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 (edited) Jungle from the first night in Modena was good and so was DTJ from Lyon and The Garden from Saskatoon. Since we don't have much recordings available from this tour, I would say Saskatoon and Argentina for the other songs Edited July 31, 2018 by Endless2404 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
