Here is my issue:

If Axl believes in CD so much, and doesn't wanna just let it go cause of all the work put in to it, why self sabotage by doing NOTHING for the album?

Now, you are playing almost as many cover songs as songs off the damn album.

Gonna let his go a couple more days since its so close.

Little Instrumental Guitar piece of mine. Impromptu jam actually. I hit play on drum machine record and started playing. Solos are one take.

I listened to CD at work the other day. Mind you I drive about 2 hours per day so I awas abe to get 2 straight listens in, and honest to God, this CD is pretty mediocre.

Now i am far removed from my "Fandom, blinders" of it and can hear it for what it is, this CD is pretty average.

Guitar work is complete shit except for a few solos but riff wise is it is garbage, there are very few 'leads" going on with the music worth mentioning. Catcher is a complete clusterfuck when it should've been a top 10 GNR song of all time.

half the vocal tracks sound like demos....

One of my all time fave songs:
Check the absolute AMAZING outro solo by Frusciante.
