Haven’t heard this disc in months. Didn’t save to my files for some reason and never got it back.

By original, I mean versions we're never going to here.
IMO for Oklahoma to show up on a set list as early as it did, I would assume that it was a song that existed for a period of time that could possibly date back to Duff's last years in the band.
It could actually date even further back to the jam sessions including everyone from Slash to Zakk to Kermit the frog.
In that 95-98 period, there are literally dozens of musicians walking through the door.

As the far as the songs go: 'Oklahoma' was pretty much written by the time they got to the studio... 'Ides of March' was a working title of one of the songs that came from a loop name that Dizzy came up with: I think they kept the name, but it's been years so I'm sure everything has changed by now." (Dave Dominguez, Sp1at, 02/07/05)---
Oklahoma was written in 1994. He wrote it about the bombing and how people in the courtroom during his divorce didn’t give a shit that it happened and were only focused on taking him down. There’s an Axl quote about it. It was certainly worked on by anybody in the lineup 94-01.

There is no market for this. Are we surprised 20 year old Axl Rose demos are not widely covered?
Let’s all collectively be self aware. We are the exception.

Why wasn’t Axl on guitar? Remember back when guitarists like Finck and Bucket were shuffling out people on the forums actually suggested Axl probably got good enough to play lead? Gary Sunshine must be a wiz!

He basically doesn’t produce anymore so not sure if that’s in the cards.

THIS.
It needs work bad.
Atlas ready to launch.
Can't believe Perhaps is going to win.
Well it’s a vote between 15 people.. could have gone any way.
That’s why if I’m Axl, I don’t give a shit about these “leaks”.

Recency bias is definitely in play with Perhaps but Atlas is fucking legit.

I don’t mind it but it’s no surprise Axl and Duff didn’t want to do this material at the time.

This will be on repeat for awhile.
Bucket owned the album.
Bucket owned the rest of it.
Anyone really surprised?
Just imagine how much better the overall reception of CD would've been had this album been released in the early 2000s before the tracks were over-produced to the point there got to by 2008.
I think it’s clear Axl believed in the multi-album approach. There is so much material it makes no sense why they released the tracks they did. Label says. “There’s already an album out there on the internet.” They release it, he goes into a shell.
#680 Re: Guns N' Roses » When will we hear more vault material? » 370 weeks ago
I have zero interest in anything Chinese done post Bucket departure.
2000-04 is where it all resides.
I generally agree but think think there is a 100 percent chance Axl’s vocals for most of those songs is post-bucket.
