Re: Robin's This I Love solo is the best moment in GNR history
It's good, but the Appetite stuff will always be at the top of the list. If we're just picking one song, I would go with Rocket Queen...in particular the ending of it.

I do like that ending, in a way kinda cooly foreshadows 90s music & 4 chord grunge style. Love it! However, best moment in GnR history imho is SCOM intro, that or WTTJ intro. Just being honest. I'd say SCOM.

Re: Robin's This I Love solo is the best moment in GNR history
This I love is one of my favourite songs and I do enjoy the solo...but there's a part of me that feels it's robin aping the classic GNR solo style...Given the song dates from the 1990s apparently, I would have been interested to hear what 90s Slash might have done with it.
I know we've heard Slash do it on the NITL tour but at that point he's basically covering the studio version with a bit of improvisation each night...so I think it's a different outcome to what we might have heard if he'd come into the song raw and with no existing guitar ideas to replicate.
I say 90s Slash because although modern Slash is epic and shreds like a mother in a way I love...there was something about the creativity that 90s Slash had where his solos would elevate the themes of songs to new levels...ie Estranged, November Rain etc.
So i would be curious about what UYI era slash might have done with the track if they'd been getting on properly etc.
