Re: Will the next single be something we've heard already?

If Axl really didn’t approve of Caram’s work it simply wouldn’t have made the final cut and Caram wouldn’t still be involved.
The fact that Caram is still involved almost 20 years later speaks to that Axl is fine with his mixing.
Axl can like Caram's mixes all he wants, it still doesn't change the fact that Caram is a hack and his mixes are by far the worst out of all the mixes. There is no defending all of the clipping in the CD album versions that is all on Caram. Also Axl loves yes men, that is why people like him and Team Brazi are still around. Now I know no one is going to say team brazil does a great job and that is why Axl keeps them around.
I think by 2008, Axl was so done with the whole thing and emotionally over it that he didn’t really care about the nitty gritty details such as clipping etc, it seemed he more cared about a certain plan of promotion that he felt Universal didn’t follow up on, hence him also not really promoting the record.
