Hey, just wondering if anyone would be interested in hearing these, I'm happy to share.? I acquired them from Alan Niven last year along with a number of other things.
They were recorded during the UYI sessons, one DAT is dated 9/21/90 and the other 1/18/91.? They were recorded at Record Plant Recording Studios.? See the pic below:
One is entitled "GN'R Ruffs w/new Slash GTR's 9/21/90" and has the following songs:
Estranged
Locomotive
Breakdown
The Garden
Black Leather
I Don't Care About You
Attitude
New Rose
14 Years w/new Duff Bass
Bascially all the songs are instrumental except for 14 years - which seems to be an early demo version.? They havent worked out all the lyrics yet and some are different or are just mumbled through.? There is also a totally different outro to the song as well.
The other DAT is titled "GN'R Mixes 1/18/91 - Mixes and Q Sound".? The songs are:
November Rain
Live & Let Die
Estranged
Double Talkin Jive
You Ain't the First
Yesterdays
Pretty Tied Up
You Could Be Mine
Bad Apples
Don't Cry (main lyrics)
Don't Cry (Alt. lyrics)
Bascially there are 2 versions of each song.? One is the original version and the other is the same song mixed with "Q Sound".? You can google Q Sound to find out what it is.? Alan said that they were simply experimenting with it.? I believe Pink Floyd's Pulse album was mixed with Q Sound.? Anyhow, personally I struggle to hear much difference - but hey, maybe others can.
Anyhow, let me know if anyone is interested.
Alan also said that he would burn me a copy of the AFD Demos that he has.? Just wondering if these would be the same demos that are already floating around out there, or could they be something new?
