So yesterday..... (there were so many things I was never told...),
They finally released the first remasters from the Illusion LPs, Planet Rock made a big fuss of the November Rain one which now has a live orchestra on it, ably assisted by one Steven Wilson. It sounds good, some new fancy parts and the guitars sound more "live" but.. I dug out my original vinyl pressings tonight and compared the original to the remaster. Prefer the original, hahaha.....
I mean it's how its sounded for the last 31 years of my life, so I guess it's familiar I just don't get why sometimes they have to fuck with stuff. I prefer Metallica's approach to remasters, clean it up and release it as it sounded before.
I do forget how good some of the stuff on these is too

It's a great song, ruined by the middle part, damn you Axl!

Perfectly competent drummer, and all that, but completely lacking all the qualities GnR needed.
Going back to the discussion in point, its like Simon Wright & Chris Slade and the other guy AC/DC used, nowhere near as much swing and swagger as Phil Rudd.

Unashamedly the best songs from the two albums. And unsurprisingly the songs that they normally played from the albums.
Although it's hugely flawed, I'm a big fan of the UYI era. There is so much footage of the shows out there so kudos to them for recording so much. Slash plays amazing on the tour. And Axl sounds fantastic. It's a pity that Duff looks so fucking awful. And Izzy left. And Sorum smashed through any roll the band had. (Maybe it was all shit after all ha!) But I just love it cos it is so early 90s. What a time to be alive.
