ShadowOfTheWave Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 As for the "Slash would never allow part of Robin's solo to remain on a new song" argument...people have been saying this kind of stuff for years. No way Slash comes back without full reunion, no way Slash plays CD songs, no way Slash accepts TB as GNR management, no way Slash will stay if brand new music isn't worked on, ect. And have been wrong every time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happens all the time, but in this case I just don't think his solo was particularly great... It doesn't really do anything for the song. Not awful, not that much better/worse than the demo. End of the day the demo is an unfinished work until it's not, so no point getting hung up on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well... Yeah, considering it's the only thing he's bringing to the table. Even giving it a bit of the old Slash juices would have been something though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Stay.Of.Execution Posted August 14, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2023 it is astonishing that CD only had two really memorable and great guitar solos (twat and til). especially when you had players like bucket in the mix. but.. it shows that technical skilled players rarely come up with anything memorable compared to players like slash 6 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why Axl wanted it like this, who knows. probably to mask the fact the song has no chorus and only 2 different verses, to make it seem like the song has more substance i guess. Stylistic choice, my behind. 😆 Sloppy drunk "edgy" editing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His last 2 solo albums still had plenty of excellent guitars, granted they were rushed due to Guns commitments. I'm sure his solo album next year will be really good. He quit Guns in the 90s because he didn't like the musical direction along with other reasons. I doubt he's too inspired with not writing new material and just been asked to slap a solo on a 20 yr old song that didn't make the cut for CD. Is Slash being "asked" to work on these songs? By anyone? Him and Duff just randomly decided to do it during the pandemic when they had nothing else to do (obviously without Axl really being on board, considering Axl's reluctance to do anything new for the songs). That makes it worse to me. Volunteering to do a songs knowing you won't put effort in it at all, while over writing another guitarists solo that was better than yours.

Slave to the Dave Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Must say from what I can hear I'm pleasantly surprised, other than an average nothing solo the production and overall song sounds significantly better mixed and produced than the demo . I love that the vocals are improved and clearer and piano more prominent. Well done lads. Now go back and fix Hardschool please 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure Axl was completely onboard and suggested songs to work on. I also don't think it is correct that Axl is reluctant to do anything new for the songs. I am sure he is involved in the mixing/mastering and possibly, just possibly, also having added new vocals (maybe to Perhaps). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Guapo Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Ok, I listened to it a couple of times. It's simply not a good song to my ears and will be quickly forgotten by the general public, imo. Slash really doesn't seem to give a fuck here again and the "false start" with Robin's guitar totally sounds like an error, this can't be an artistic choice?! Is it possible that this got fixed in the meantime? I guess so. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
