I'd love Mike Clink's take on the Chinese stuff. I think he had so much to do with the GNR "sound" that we fell in love with.
Or Izzy Stradlin and Steven Adler did.
No, not really. UYI is the best sounding album (for me), ever, and Steve had nothing to do with it, and TSI sounds seamless when paired next to it, and there's no Izzy there, either. You throw in AFD cuts and LIES cuts and it all sounds like it came from the same planet - that's Mike Clink. I'm talking about how it sounds. Not... the music or how the instruments are played, or how the songs are composed (Axl and Izzy both tended to write 1/2 or 3/4 of a song, needing the other person's input...I think that's clear from Izzy's solo work and most of Axl's Chinese tracks...'Hmm, something's missing...') ----- talking about the SOUND.

Well put.
It's like those photos of old roads where they pull out a strata of layers, roman concrete, medieval cobblestone, pre-war brick, and then blacktop... Chinese is like that, there's like examples of 3 or 4 strata.
I'll say this about AFD - listen to it back to back with "Straight Outa Compton" tracks. It's an interesting exercise. They sound like a double album.

#13 Re: Guns N' Roses » What happened to Axl's voice? » 82 weeks ago
Youtube just fed me this:
Very interesting. He's singing Estranged in a lower register. Song is... pretty good.

If Axl takes the poolboy side, it’s the end of GNR as we know it.
Hope he does the right thing to do, he knows what’s like to be abused, he suffered from that.. really hope he takes the right side.
That last Slash tweet seems like a goodbye and felt like something was not right, I posted it in Reddit as a simple question and got kicked and downvoted hard. Had to delete the post.
Oooh? I can't find this.

It's believable to me that they didn't include that 'work for hire / intellectual property' clause until her last contract. You know, because it's TB.

So far, I don't think any of the text messages or emails have been introduced as an exhibit that one can get from PACER.

128 kbps MP3s? Bro.

As an aside, I always get a kick out of the names of shell companies/operating companies/holding companies people use. Gundam, LOL.

Well, this reminds me of IRS. But it's like half of an idea.
