Weren't YCBM and NR originally written for AFD?  Can I add those there, and select 14 from UYI (excluding YCBM and NR), and 14 from CD?  Can I add OMG to CD and drop something else?   lol  UYI wins anyway, barely.

Estranged
Bad Apples
Bad Obsession
Breakdown (I'd also like Axl removed from the end)
Double Talkin' Jive
Civil War
Locomotive
Dead Horse
Don't Damn Me
Perfect Crime
Yesterdays
Coma

well, the way I look at it, UYI was one recording session. I am quite sure NR and YCBM were bare bones demos during the recording of AFD so they don't count. You can only consider what has been released to date, and there has only been 3 real original LP recording sessions for "Gnr". AFD-UYI-CD. Lies doesn't count because it was an EP of acoustic tracks whipped up as a stop over between AFD-UYI...the cover album doesn't count either for obvious reasons. I am not going to speculate on any CD II because we have no idea if Axl will ever release anything else. 16

I almost took RNDTH too, but I couldn't part with anything else, except maybe Civil War.  And Tyler, you should record your own vocal for Breakdown at the end.  I took Axl off, just for fun, in case you want to give it a shot.

I must say the Breakdown mp3 was sweet...thanks...you can add OMG to CD if you want.:cool:

Another thing I originally thought about Breakdown was the very Who sounding intro. Outside of Axl's silly whistling, the intro sounds like something The Who would have done around 72-73-74....think Join Together, Long Live Rock, Slip Kid, etc.

I'm with tyler, I dig the end of "Breakdown" the way it is.

I'm not even sure which 2 songs I'd eliminate from CD.  I think Riad would probably be one, but the other one is a tough choice.  I guess Prostitute maybe. 

As for the UYI's, mine would go something like this
1. Breakdown
2. Don't Damn Me
3. Bad Apples
4. Dead Horse
5. Coma
6. Don't Cry
7. Dust N' Bones
8. Civil War
9. November Rain
10. Bad Obsession
11. You Could Be Mine
12. Estranged

On CD I would get rid of Sorry and Catcher, only because I think they would fit a "darker" album better. I'd throw TIL in there too.

CD
TWAT
Better
The Blues
IRS
Riad
Prostitute
SR
Scraped
TIL
Madagascar
ITW

That would be a solid album.

rules are in the first post and it's my thread Russ, forget desert island thing, either way your pick is Chinese. 19

rules 

"let's play under the assumption that you can choose your own best 12 UYI tracks and you can whittle down CD to 12 tracks. Since most people think AFD is gold, it has to fight it out on it's own. What ya got, AFD-UYI-CD?"
