Right cause no way $la$h wouldn't release that in the US

so had to be some type of shenanigans blocking it from GNR.

only other thought is maybe distributor didn't see a big enough audience to mass release it due to financial considerations...

but I'd bet GNR camp blocked it which is bullshit

I thought it came out in the US, but without the GN'R songs. But it'd have been a logical step not to release it at all, if it was cut that drastically.

I don't have exact proof that the Axl camp blocked the proper release, but that's what I read back then. And nothing else would make sense in this case.
