Honest to god, the only song on the album I don't love is CitR. Everything else is freakin' fantastic to me

Thats pretty much how I feel, its a great fuckin record. There are a few moments that I'm not so keen on but whatever man, people are too fuckin analytical. Mabye if they loosened up they might actually enjoy it for what it is, instead of forever fussing over what they wish it was.

Theres only one terrible moment in the GNR catalogue and its that moment when Dont Cry soothingly drifts away at the end of UYI2 and that god awful My World kicks in... it catches me out every single time 17

I think this was a limited edition that came out with the first single, I remember a couple of people posting the pic around that time. Remember that competition at the time, post your air guitar video and win a few prizes, I think this was one of the prizes as well.

And yep, it does have Shacklers as a B side.

I was showing my girlfriend the lyrics in the booklet of one of the new CDs I purchased. I forgot about all the typos in it as The Blues was the first one I noticed so that's always front of mind. She went through the booklet and was just astounded at all the fuck ups.

When the booklet leaked in a matter of seconds I clocked there was misprints, how noone in production noticed is baffling. IMO it was a either a quite conscientious lack of care and concern from people in production or it was done deliberately.

Its funny how this album got a rough ride even before it hit the shops, remember all the vinyl people were buying that were chipped and scratched and covered in fingerprints?!

#1085 Re: Guns N' Roses » Axl Pic » 814 weeks ago

First pic was tweeted from Axl/GNR in South America I think, been around for ages anyway. Dunno bout the second one, sounds cool though 14

I wouldnt buy another vinyl no matter how cheap it was, half the songs sounded like they were being played though a 1950's radio.

If they ever bother to rerelease it with all the problems fixed I'd get it in a heartbeat.

The guitars on the album version ruin what was once my favourite new GNR song, I absolutely loved the demo.

Its like Ron was playing along to an instrumental and had no idea how the lyric structure would fit in, his last solo does nothing to compliment the vocals and they both clash.
I kinda feel sorry for him though now knowing that he was just given a laptop and headphones and sent to a wee room to record new parts on the songs. The version he was playing live last year was much more melodic, I guess he isnt too satisfied with the final cut either.

The album version must have had different leads on it before he recorded his parts over it, Robin and Bucket mabye 11

I was in HMV yesterday and CD was £12.99. UYIs were £7, AFD was £5 and TSI was £3.
It changes all the time, I've seen CD in there for £3 before and TSI for £15.99. I usually get a duplicate copy of the cheapest one if my copy at home has started skipping.

Incidently they had a stack of Slash's new album beside the GNR albums, it kinda jumped out cause it wasnt in its alphabetical place, I had a chuckle to myself imagining Axl blowing a gasket if he had walked in and seen it there 16

I bought Monster Magnet greatest hits and Slipknots last album for £5 each 22
