Re: Riyadh and the Bedouins leak
Gonna break my own rule here this one time, but here's the track that in my opinion inspired Riyadh, whether from Bucket personally or Axl desiring something of this nature to be on the record.
To me, Riyadh is like the bastard child of this track.
Crash Victim from Praxis

I would hope that those of you who do like this track will support Bucket by buying it on Itunes. Or just buy the whole album.
Praxis- Transmutation(Mutadis Mutandis)
Re: Riyadh and the Bedouins leak
Every music fan in general should own Transmutation. The players at every position are top notch. You've got legends Bootsy on bass; Bernie on keys; legend-in-the-making Bucket on guitar and then Brain on drums.
I agree with James that there's a Praxis feel in this song. I need to listen to Crash Victim again to see how they stack up.

Re: Riyadh and the Bedouins leak
I like Transmutation but it's not for everyone, nor do I think it's really THAT amazing. I'm impressed with the skill involved and there are some memorable moments and grooves but it's a little overrated by Bucket fans.
I can hear the Praxis influence on Riyadh, it's there, but Tommy and Robin add a different dimension to it and then Axl adds some greater meaning to it. I like his lyrics on this one more than most; I don't think it's a weak track in that sense at all.

BH took the stuff Axl and Finck made and made them great. TWAT was a good song on the 99 demo but when BH added his licks it turned into a great song

Re: Riyadh and the Bedouins leak
Loving this track and feel it is a solid if a little unremarkable rocker.
I'm afraid old uncle Axl is the weak link here - his vocals sound weak, strained, overproduced and forced.
Bucket, (yet again), is the standout here and really shines on all these leaks. Not matter how good BBF is, he cant hold a candle im afraid - from a playing and a charisma POV.
It's time for Axl to either mend fences with BH or mend fences with Slash and get a reunion going.
Axl and his current merry men can't do justice to CD or AFD imo

Yep, its a sad day when the current lineup cant even replicate the CD era material.
Have no BBF demos to compare, but was anyone REALLY that impressed by his fretless solo on CD during the tour? To the point of desiring that it be recorded in a studio and take up even more time?
Didn't think so....
At least the cat's out of the bag. Axl cant ram a crap album down our throats because we have too much material to compare it to.
