Title: UYI Box Set Track list?
Post by: kyrie on September 19, 2022, 05:28:05 PM
Not sure if legit. Seems to be missing some obvious choices like Ain't Going Down and Crash Diet.

Very excited about this!  It’s when I became a fan and my favorite era of the band.

A must get for sure.
Lets see the different formats. I saw some 2 cd tracklist that had some Paris 1992 audio tracks. Not sure if it was fake or not.
Better not be 1000$ this time. ;D

Not sure the album needed remastering, but the live stuff should be awesome. : ok:

Slash and Izzy were out of sync on the intro to YCBM there.  ;D

I've covered that song live before so I know how easy it can be for that to happen. Especially when you can't hear the bass well.

Well this exciting, thanks for the news Jarmo. 

I wonder if it will come with the ruff demos? I would love to have a legit version of 14 years with the extended outro.

Individual UYI I and II Deluxe Edition available for pre-order. UYI Super Deluxe available for pre-order with YCBM from the '91 Ritz show available now.

Also, this performance shows why he's struggled with vocal issues. His use of vocal fry is way overboard, and you can hear his voice cutting out at the end trying to hold the last note.

But, this should be a good batch of UYI era live recordings.

Yeah that Ycbm is as rough as i remember the bootleg to be.

Interesting choice. The band sounds very much like a club band here. Mistakes. Setlist totally done on the fly, broken leg. BUT they killed it. They still sound like the nastiest,fucked up, most tightest band in town. Which i love
 And sound like they are having the time of their life.

Vegas 92 will be a surprise.

Cool this looks exciting I really liked both albums  but I'd have to go with UY1 as Coma,November Rain ,Double talkin jive  and Back off Bitch,Perfect crime are just killer tunes.


Title: Re: UYI Box Set Track list?
Post by: kyrie on September 20, 2022, 11:23:55 AM
The absence of any unreleased tracks/demos really has me believing in the double EP rarities album release rumor. There's absolutely zero reason not to include them otherwise. AFD box set got Shadow of Your Love etc so...


Title: Re: UYI Box Set Track list?
Post by: jarmo on September 20, 2022, 12:25:14 PM
I think the "problem" is that they released almost everything they had written and recorded. I can think of one song that didn't make it. But an instrumental version of it was on the AFD box set.

I think there was more there with the AFD Demo catalog because of how they were trying out producers for that first album and shopping the band. We got things like November Rain on the AFD box. Crash Diet was never intended to be a Guns N' Roses song depending on who you listen to.

This also plays into the volume of "storage locker" material that got leaked from CD... they were passing material around to different producers, engineers, etc...

Post by: pilferk on September 20, 2022, 01:06:36 PM
I do wish that, like the AFD set, there was an inclusion of digital versions with the super deluxe.  Maybe I'm just missing them.

Yes, I can rip the CDs if I want, but it's a LOT of work. 

Maybe there will be a digital, lossless, version available somewhere.  I know I-tunes has it up.  Maybe spotify or amazon or something will too.  Just means I buy both, I guess. ;)

Im very happy with the content. Im not a demo guy but i love live concerts.

Only complaint is that getting all the cds (the boxset plus the deluxe 2cd editions of the albums) will set me back almost 400€.
Im gonna buy them. Not sure i have the patience to wait the price to go down. But im thinking about it.

Agree. The deluxe CD version could very well have been included in the "super deluxe" versions.

I'll probably buy the Super Deluxe vinyl and settle for just streaming the additional live tracks.

So to get "everything" I have to buy three things... normally you don't have to do that if you buy super deluxe!

And I also find it odd that the original album version of November Rain isn't included on any version?

But on the positive side, I love that the live shows don't have re-recorded vocals and are just as rough as they should be.

I bought the Appetite Locked N' Loaded box set way too soon and too expensive so I'm gonna wait for the price to drop.

I wonder why they didn't include the Rough And Q Sound Mixes. Those are great! Or the KOHD version from Days Of Thunder.

Yeah. Maybe because that stuff in already online. Its just the same recordings but mixed not as well. (Allthough the extended 14 Years is cool)  They wanted to give something new. Anyway i dont mind it since i didnt really care about the Appetite demos included on the earlier boxset. So i dont mind it.

Nothing from The Spaghetti Incident is a bit of a surprise. But then again why bother when we all have it.  Including GNR Lies on the Appetite set was not necessary either.

And maybe they are saving Aint Going Down for something else... Wasent there a Hanoi Spaghetti outtake thats unreleased? Or was it just something they planned to record but never did?

I absolutely loved it.  As you say, raw.

And more to the point : ACCURATE.  That's who this band was in 1991.  I'm glad they didn't fuck with it.

Let's face it...'Live Era' is a complete abomination with those re-recorded vocals.  And even the enhanced crowd noise on some tracks.  Just really lame.

This...this sounds like your standard right off the soundboard bootleg.  The best kind, in my opinion.

Great video! But I hope the blu-ray isn't edited like that (different shots from different songs and quick camera changes).

This kind of video is good for marketing purposes, but I don't think I can watch a whole show like that.

They are referring to it as "the official music video", so I think that could mean it's just for marketing. I don't see how you could do a whole concert that way.

Someone had fun with jump cuts.

Video was great.  I don't expect the show to be edited like that.  The video serves it's purpose as sort of an intro/promo to the UYI reissues/boxed sets.

Yeah, it's weird, you could hear him okay in the intro where he's out of sync with Slash, but then he just gets totally lost. I wonder if he just had his amp turned down intentionally, because why else couldn't they mix him louder?

Ok i'll say it

I don't understand, this was the same time he was still doing overdubs for the album, right? How did he go from sounding excellent on the album to so rough on the tour?

Interesting. I thought he was clean by '91? Having played in a live setting, I can say that it's often hard to hear every other instrument, so he may not have been able to hear Slash.

Now, my account on de.gnrmerch.com says my order is cancelled! I haven't got any message about it and I haven't got any money back. Let's see if they answer me this time.

Do you think that they'll release the blu ray of the Ritz show by itself? That's the main thing I want but I can't afford to buy the full box set, especially when all the audio will be available on streaming services.

The Ritz show that is included in the box set was shot on film. So it makes sense to transfer it and release it.

Are you sure every show was shot on film and is available in a quality that can be released?

The shows that we have, Paris, Tokyo, Rock In Rio and the upcoming release of the New York footage, were all filmed for either release or TV.... Doesn't necessarily mean every other show is available in that quality.

The various UYI shows that have been floating around unofficially for ages. Noblesville '91 for example. The quality of those recordings is pretty damn good as is, and I'm sure the source material is even better and could be cleaned up for some sort of an official release. Or don't clean it up, just release it. Even if just online like Metallica does.

This is assuming GNR owns or has access to those recordings. I actually have no idea where they originally leaked from.

Got both 2cd Deluxes yesterday via my local record shop

The remaster seems pretty standard more compression and bass boost.

Will give more thoughts later but the new writing credits are a surprise.
 For example My World is a Stradlin/Slash/McKagan/Rose Composition. And Sorum gets a credit for Dust N' Bones.

Also i spotted a mistake on the Credits. The Rio 1991 KOHD credits Teddy Andreadis, Roberta Freeman and Traci Amos as additional musicians. But they joined the band 11 months later.

Only had time to listen to UYI 1 the live tracks especially London 1991 are a treat. Bad Apples too. And the Ritz and Vegas shows seem very promising.

Axl n Slash talked about this, reffering to 1993 5 shows (Tel Aviv, Athens, Instabul, 2 Milton Keynes shows) where Izzy replaced Gilby temporarily.

Those 5 shows, Axl said that a roadie was turning down Izzy's amp, then Izzy would turn it up again and this was kept going over and over during the show  ;D ;D

So, FYI: Spotify has all of it available, including bonus material.  This includes the Super Deluxe version (with both albums and all bonus tracks...just no Blu-Ray, obviously) and the Deluxe versions of UYI1 and UYI2.  This makes for pretty easy (if lossy) digital listening for Spotify subs.

Listened to the whole Las Vegas show already.  It's tremendous.

This was one that never got out in bootleg circles in 30 years.  Not even a shitty version.

Things that struck me is how happy the band is this night.  Not sure I've ever heard Slash talk so much.  And even Axl seems in good cheer.  And, let's face it...early 1992 Axl Rose was not known for his good cheer.

It is definitely too expensive, but I'm not sure by how much. If you are up the price of the average CD and Blu-ray it would certainly be over $100 for 7 CDs and a Blu-ray. I don't think the memorabilia is worth over $100 on top of that though. You can get it cheaper through Amazon, Target or Walmart. They have it for $203

Apparantly, Japan gets bonus tracks on the deluxe editions.
UYI 1: Live and let die and Don't Cry from Tokyo
UYI 2: Pretty tied up and You Could Be Mine from Tokyo.

On super deluxe Don't Cry, Live and let die and Civil war from Yokyo seems to be extra tracks.

That's what google translate says when I translate från cdjapan.co.jp

Do you think it's the same as from the Tokyo DVDs?

Got the deluxe version of UYI II on CD what's with the ghosting of Izzy and Matt they played a big part in the recording of those albums particularly Izzy who wrote a lot of the songs most of the images are of Axl,Slash and Duff , I know both left the band a long time ago but surely they shouldn't be whitewashed out of history because the singer is a bit eccentric and holds grudges against anyone that he feels challenged his leadership or walked away from the band because of his crazy behaviour during that time.


Title: Re: UYI Box Set Track list?

I think the bad blood (or whatever) with Izzy is more recent, because he didn't want to play ball and be a part of the reunion, and the statements he made about it. Axl obviously had no issues with Izzy during the ChiDem era as they shared the stage multiple times.

Just watched the bluray. What a film!!

Lightning in a bottle. Just before they became a touring machine. Izzy was still there. Very fresh from the studio and so much energy. (Damn i love Matt's playing)
The vault has been opened now. I wonder what else we will get, if anything.  Wembley 91, Some gig from the Metallica tour, and a 93 show comes to mind.

Very happy about the release so far. Still have to listen to the Vegas show.

I find the new mastering to be decent, as i find the original to be perfect, and usually hate ''loudly compressed remasters'' this one is not bad at all. Very enjoyable.
The book is very nice too.

I'd love to see the Paris show released at some point. I'm wondering why they didn't do a UHD Blu-ray version. They converted it to 4k and edited it in 4k. Seems like a wasted opportunity to do a UHD and standby HD Blu-ray.

Paris was by far the best performance of the shows I've seen from the UYI tour. Every member was on fire and in tune with each other. Slash's solo on DTJ is his best ever, IMO. Imagine seeing it in the same quality as the Ritz!  :drool:

But who knows if they actually have it in any higher quality than the broadcast.

I just finished listening to the Vegas show and went thru the book.

The show is truly peak GN'R. Seems like the killer crowd really lifted the energy to 11 and seems like it was a highlight for the band since this show was used here, Live Era 87-93, Yesterdays single b-side, and on tv (Yesterdays)
And Slash met Meegan that day.

Onlycomplaint is that i want more stuff to discover   ;D

Im pretty sure Jungle from Live Era is also from Vegas but slowed down by about 2bpm. And Vocals are from a different show (Tokyo 20.02.1992)

The only negative of that show is Jeff Beck having to cancel, thus missing out on seeing them play Locomotive.

On the blue-ray it looks (and sounds) like Slash is muted a bit on his "rant" before YCBM. Can you english speaking people make that out? Do you think he says something offensive that had to be erased?

My UYI deluxe set was just delivered.  I watched the 1991 Ritz show last night and it blew me away.  I used to own a bootleg VHS of this show and I'm glad we got a high quality version at last!

Yeah, it sucked to have Steven missing, but otherwise, the chemistry was incredible between the band members.  What an amazing show!

I started listening to Use Your Illusion I on CD today, which features the new version of "November Rain" with a full orchestra.  A few sound effects are muted, which makes me prefer the original recording, but otherwise hard to tell the difference.

OK, good.  I'm not alone. 

I actually felt myself wondering if this was an improvement.  Hard to say.  I did replace the original on all my playlists with the new version (as I did with all UYI tracks).

That concert is the highlight of the set to me.  You put it perfectly : peak GNR.  Whole band sounds amazing.

I think the best era is UYI.  I think that tour is their height.  But the summer of 1991, Axl is a bit scratchy.  And as 1992 wore on, the shows got a bit bloated and shorter.

But people ask what the peak of GNR is, and I always say the same thing : 12/5/91 to 7/2/92.  That's the second US leg in arenas, Japan, and the second leg of Europe.

Alternately, double disc editions have also been released for UYI as well.  Both contains several live tracks that were not included on the big boxset.

One such track is the only live performance ever of "Bad Apples", from 1/23/91, the second night of Rio.

Maybe the band feels this way too.
From that period we got, Vegas and Tokyo as official releases. Plus Paris and The Freddy tribute as payperviews. And more than half of Live Era is from that period too.
For a band that dosent do a lot of live releases, thats alot considering  we are talking about a 7 month period.

GNR was definitely at their commercial peak during the UYI tour, but I've always pointed to 1988 as their peak as a raw, hardcore, badass rock n roll band.  The UYI tour featured loss of original members, new members with different dynamics, additions of horn sections, keyboard players, backup singers, Dizzy playing the tambourine... just didn't do it for me.  I was listening to the Vegas show on CD today and it kinda buttressed this feeling for me.  It sounded good but wasn't the old days.

I'm not sure about preference, so much as the band didn't have the finances to film/record very much from their early years.  The 1988 Ritz show was a rare exception, and that was produced by MTV, not the band.  MTV deleted that material from their archives, and foolishly so, given that they could've made millions off official releases of it.  I still have a bootleg of the uncut version, but I'd pay top dollar today for a fully restored version of that show!

I was hoping for behind-the-scenes video from the UYI tour.  In his book, Slash led us to believe that lots of this was filmed.
