true, I still would take Chinese over any other former band members album. But, to me, the first Ju Ju Hounds record and actually Tommy's VGH are pretty close in songs I actually listen to on a random day. hmm

The 1st JuJu Hounds record is awesome!  VGH I just never bought or listened to.  But saying that CD is better than the rest is slightly a compliment.  But the record ain't all that great and I don't listent to CD anymore and haven't in a long time.  And it is not a memorable album.  I seriously couldn't name all the songs on that record and much less get them in the right order.  I do not know the lyrics of any of those songs.  While I know the order and lyrics of all other GNR records.

ha! Karma.....even though you may be slightly intoxicated. 16

Not intoxicated.  Just tired and English is not my first language.  But still I hate it when people go "Oh it's all Axl's fault" or "It's all Slash's fault".  They broke up and both are to blame.  What are the exact reasons?  We'll probably never know.

Well that's good to know, it's safe and sound,,,,,,,,, somewhere.

I go crazy when I misplace something, no matter how small or unimportant.  I'm neurotic like that.

With the enormous collection I have I have to list them numerically.  Another album I can't tell on which shelf it is is Van Halen 3.  And like Libertad I can't even name one song from that album.  At least CD I think I could name all the songs, just not in the right order.  That is sad though when I think about it I seriously can't name one song from Libertad.  As for this skwerl guy.  Those who downloaded the songs and didn't buy the record.  They wouldn't have bought the album anyways.  They would've downloaded the songs after the record would've been out.  IF it had ever came out.

You might want to try alphabetizing your CDs or arranging them by year.
Another idea is to get some sort of display rack, that way you can keep all of your CDs in one place.

Try to remember the last place you saw them, and then re-trace your steps from there.

Let us know if you find it.

Cheers.

No kidding.  Dude, you gotta get more organized.  You seem to be losing shit all over the place.  That's not a good thing, no matter how much or how little you value them.

Ok I need to be more precise.  My cd's are entered alphabetically in my computer and are placed numerically.  Libertad and CD amongst others I do not know which number they are or like some of my fave albums, I do not know which number but can tell you approximately where they are.  CD and Libertad I can't.  If I look up their number in my pc I will find them.  But I can't bother.  So they are collecting dust on the shelf they are in.  And with the number of cd's I have I doubt CD or Libertad will ever find their way in my stereo ever again.  Although CD would be more likely than Libertad.  So people do not worry.  CD is safe in my house.  I just don't remember which shelf nor do I care to remember.

I downloaded the demos, bought the album and you wanna know where my copy of Chinese Democracy is?  I can't tell cause I can't remember where the fuck I put it.  And why I can't remember where it is?  Cause I stopped listening to the album a week or 2 after it was released.  And don't blame the leaks cause the leaks weren't on a regular rotation neither.  The album lacks something that is called good lasting music.  Not a bad album but not a memorable one.  So because of that CD is probably where my Libertad album is (another album I have no clue where I put it).  Although CD is better than Libertad it's as forgettable.  So that is why CD hasn't sold well.  ACDC and Metallica did well with their latest album, and reason is, both those bands released better records.

I'm sorry I read Wall's piece and this thread for that matter.  Not because I'm an Axl nutswinger but Wall's piece was just boring.
