Re: Best Slash Moments out side of GNR (post 1991)
parts of Chinese are cohesive...but, compare Chinese to Dark Side or AFD. You just can't get that similar feel from track to track when there are ten different players, 5 producers, 3 engineers, etc. Lyrically, the album is cohesive, musically...no. Just my opinion.
Re: Best Slash Moments out side of GNR (post 1991)
That's actually something Slash fell into with - Slash. It's not a musically cohesive album, unlike his VR and Snakepit outputs.
Axl fell into that from the get. CD... industrial rockers mixed with grandiose Illusion ballads? WTF?
The only cohesive part in ALL of CD imo, is that first three punch of CD, Shackler's & Better, after everything seems to just be isolated tracks, hand-picked from recording sessions, with no flow at all.
Reminds me of when you hit Get In The Ring, after Civil War, 14yrs, Yesterday & KOHD on UYI2. It just kills the flow.
CD doesn't even sound like an album output, as envisioned in a studio. Not like AFD, or other popular albums of their time like Metallica or Dirt.
So I guess in that respect, Mikka might actually get a pass to hand pick some songs for a Slash album post-91. But in reality, it's all subjective. I love Always On The Run or Give In To Me or I Ain't No Nice Guy with Ozz & Lem, but I know those who trash all of those songs.

I want a full album of VR with Myles to see if a singer with range for a full album can elevate Slash to a higher level.
