Re: GNR.FM | Destruction Is Coming
I’m most curious about The Plague and New Work Tune
Honestly, that's all that interests me. We've heard all this other stuff for years.
The gem I really want is the 24-minute November Rain that James alluded to. Back in the day, Axl said he was going to quit the business if November Rain wasn't recorded correctly.

That's a doozy. Didn't find the actual quote, but Mick Wall asked about it in 1990.
Kerrang: This song, ‘November Rain’, I read somewhere that you said if it wasn’t recorded to your complete satisfaction you would quit the music business....
Axl : That was then. At that time it was the most important song to me.
Kerrang : Were you serious, though, when you said you’d quit the music business if it wasn’t done right?
Axl : Yeah! That’s the fuckin’ truth, allright. But the worst part of it is, like, if you wanna look at it in a negative way, I’ve got four of these motherfuckers now, man ! I don’t know how I wrote these, but I like ‘em better than ‘November rain’! And I’m gonna crush that motherfuckin’ song, man ! But now I’ve got four of ‘em I gotta do, and they’re all big songs. We play them and we get chills. It started when I came in one day with this heavy piano part, it’s like real big, and it fits this bluesy gospel thing that was supposed to be a blues-rocker like ‘Buy me a Chevrolet’ by Foghat or something. Now it’s turned into this thing, like, ‘Take another piece of my heart’ by Janis Joplin or something....

I also disagree about the Ten remaster, that sounded great, and it was a remix by Brendan O’Brien too, and it sounded much better. Just the little bit more raw and rocking. I’m surprised you guys didn’t notice that?
I sort of agree. The remix by BOB was great. Unfortunately, they completely fucked up the mastering essentially ruining his work. Brickwalled mess.
I sure hope they don't turn this classic album in a brick walled POS for future generations.

Re: GNR.FM | Destruction Is Coming
So what's the verdict on this Shadow of Your Love?
New guitars? Definitely different version of guitars, if not new.
Vocals? Probably old pro-tooled vocals.
Kind of a shit song and chorus but fuck Axl sounds badass on top of Modern Slash. Def new guitars. I enjoy the song more now than ever.

PAUL TOBIAS IS BACK IN A 'HUGE' WAY!
The song has some cool sections but you can only do so much polishing to a mediocre song.
As far the AFD set, I dig the cover but the cover text is a little too big. It annoys me.
Can you guys cue me in on where you think the new guitar is? Sounds pretty much the same to me.

All the lead guitar is new IMO.
