2 things.
1. I agree it's a great stuff. Not epic, but great, or really good. Not saying it's White Album or AFD, but it would've sold well, and been fairly positively received. Think back to the era as well, 99-2000. It was post grunge, where I don't think even original Guns might've pulled off a decent release from 93-95, the music industry changed. Maybe they could've fit as a quasi AIC-Metallica mix & fanbase. Anyway, 99-00 was alot of Korn, Limp Bizkit type Drop D tuning chords, Creed was still big, and one hit wonders cover bands. People would have accepted this nuGuns, most would've liked the music, and given Axl credit for pulling it off, albeit some hate him for destroying the original band. Ashame tho, cause it would've created a great rivalry for VR & maybe challenged them to create some better epics, expecially on their followup album, but it didn't seem to have that motivation.
2. I think Axl's partially nuts. Like obsessive compulsive, couldn't put out these songs until they were tweaked over & over again, loved tinkering with the smallest of issues, and probably would fall into & out of his creative groove and walk away doing nothing for months at a time. Not lazy, just like someone trying to write a book not wanting to force it, rather waiting until inspiration hits to begin writing again.

Check back in Jan/Feb, or a year from now. They'll all say it began last summer (ie. Now)
This is some real Nostradamus stuff. I have no idea what the future holds as I don’t understand stocks at all. But eventually we’ll enter a recession regardless of who’s in power. Brexit, trade issues in the EU, China, etc. all impact us. Just like the US housing crisis in 08 affected the globe.
I won't deny that, people say the economy runs on 7 year cycles (roughly). Seems to be true. Lates 70s were bad, then around 82-83 went up, until 91-92, then it went up, until dot bomb in 2000, then it went up, till the recession 08-09, now its gone up.
Yes, we are 'due', I guess the next big indicator will be when corporations release their earnings reports after the 3rd quarter (early October). By then it might begin to show, but we will see. One things for sure tho, his China Tariff failed.
And my 'Nostradamus' vision is that Trump won't even run in 2020 & bails out. Wouldn't surprise me.

Was there a price on the listing tho? It could be going for thousands. Then again, didn't China devalue the yuan just recently? Might be a good time to buy in
Seriously tho, good point about warning others not to buy of a site like that. If it was a few hundred some might be tempted to consider.
its japan, not china
Gotcha, the .jp Thanks for the catch. Anyway, still wouldn't recommend buying from it. Sure is intriguing tho.

Geeez, likely this guys onto something. My question is the one that burns us all, why didn't Axl just put out a Double Album at some point, Gotta be some solid songs in those originals somewhere?!

Basically the same thing I was saying; relax and appreciate what we got-just said with different styles - sorry to those i may have offended!
Was he referring to you or me?
I thought it was in regards to my "Rats" comment 
#1128 Re: Guns N' Roses » I will post a leak » 350 weeks ago
Going Down actually sounds far better than the release a few years ago. That version sounds like a reject messed with it in Ableton or FL Studio

Thanks for research.
Tbh tho, I dont care much at all for all the remixes & other versions of CD songs. Not sure any have been mind blowing. I guess its interesting to consider but werent most tracks from that same era?
Really Id love to hear either new leaks, or some muthafuckin tea as to the truth about what went down, why Axl got cold feet all the time, and why he couldnt release an album for nearly 15 years and is now closely approaching a similar timeline again
