New Slash song - Where do I begin

I listen to him playing something like this and it just makes it all the more mind numbing that Axl can't get inspired enough to make music with him and actually release it to the public.

I've long thought if they just gave themselves 3 months in a studio and started from scratch they'd be amazed at what would come out of it as opposed to the convoluted process of re-recording everything a million times and trying to sooth Axl's ego with the CD leftovers to make him feel it wasn't the colossal waste of time it was (it's the same reason we have to put up with Frank and his sub par drumming).

LOL at using Slash playing a cover song to prove original Slash/Axl music would be better than CD II.

TBF... at this point every release is better than a non existent album. We could argue sbout it if Axl chooses to release this god damn motherfucker.

Beautiful, as always. I hate to sound like a broken record, but I really wish Slash would just quit GNR and focus on his solo work. The man is a brilliant guitarist and I don't want him spending the remaining good years he has left wasting away with Axl, no offense to him. I want more Conspirators stuff, I want a third Snakepit album! Fat chance, I know. But, hell, probably have a better chance of that than another Guns album. I just want more stuff from Slash.

Tbh I don't think being in GNR will prevent Slash releasing anything. He has his own band for a creative outlet.

But while I do like his solo stuff I also think he is in dire need of a new creative muse.

Yeah, that was a very unnecessary last sentence. 

Lol maybe, I typically skip Double Talkin' Jive and You Ain't the First.  I probably shouldn't say they're "bad," but I get nothing from them when I listen.

Although this is a cover, this is great. Sorta odd to hear post 2010 Slash playing a lead melody without shredding the fuck out of it (2:40)

 

Wishing this inspires an album of stuff that sounds exactly like these types of chord progressions, either with SMKC, or GNR.

Yeah, its cool!

There was a clip on Meegans socials of Slash recording the lead theme maybe a month back. And then in the pinball interview Slash talked about it being on an upcoming release to honour the late composer, a friend/colleague of Slashs whose name escapes me.

I still didnt realize we'd get it s soon and certainly its a nice surprise to come across today :headbang:

(The nylon guitar part is the first non-rock song I ever learned, so thats cool too)

cool - saw all these before... never expected this today!

This is the kind of thing Axl and Finck were going for with TIL but they fell well short.

They were creating a new song with TIL, Slash is playing a faithful enough rendition of a pre-existing song from the Godfather... and there's parts where he sounds like he's picked up a guitar and has been playing for about a year... this is not that great! it's fine. Call me when he plays something as good / emotive as Fall to pieces or Estranged again... which I'd put right beside TIL as three great solos. This is just blah, and of course some will say that about TIL but what can ya do!

This is not blah, this is an opinion.

Putting TIL beside Estranged is the real crime here, but that seems to be your opinion.

Btw... LTD is full of emotive guitar playing if you give it an actual listen, but that's another story.

Every other post of yours is saying negative shit about CD or the CD era as if it were fact, but when someone calls this "blah" suddenly you're all "wah, that's just YOUR opinion". Hypocrite.

Nope, most of the time I try to add something like 'IMO' to posts like that. Just when somebody is calling his opinion a fact, then I start playing his game.
