Tadsy Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I’ve always loved the illusions. I love that era of the band and the music, and maybe I’m in the minority but I love All the ballads as much as the rockers throughout the whole catalogue. Illusions perfectly illustrates the craziness of that era of the band and other than my world which is camels shit, I love both albums without reservation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Route66 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Took the band to a new level. Didn't work for all involved. Helped grow divisions and side talking in the band. But these days it seems Axl was only trying to push the creativity further than was possible at that time with the players. Nothing wrong with that. In fact it's genius. Don't settle for average when you have belief that it can be so much better (with the people at the time). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UsedYourIllusion Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) Also, The Garden, maybe GN'R's most underrated songs? Much more dark than bad Obsession or Mr. brownstone; it feels more connected to the feeling if an addiction "It's glad to know ya, Bye Bye, So Long..."

Plus, back in the day, I only got UYI II at first, so I was really happy to have a version of my favourite GNR song at the time on it. Every show I'm still quietly hoping that he'll do the alt version instead of the original Hack the teleprompter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMAC20 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I love the illusion albums - was it time to release 2 lp’s togerther at that - not in my opinion - Epic Songs on the cds - if it was stripped down to 1 album I think it’s better than appetite 1-Perfect Crime 2- Coma 3 -Don’t Damn Me 4- You Could Be Mine 5 - Civil War ( minus the Piano ) 6- Back off Bitch 7- Locomotive 8- Garden of Eden 9- The Garden 10- Breakdown( minus the piano) 11 -You Ain’t the First 12- Pretty Tied Up Save November Rain and Estranged for the next 2 albums - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
