Lammycat Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I had all 4 of those solo albums. Ace's was the "best". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I had all 4 of those solo albums. Ace's was the "best".There are some legitimately good songs on Ace's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 There are some good songs on all of them. Somewhere I have a tape that I made back in the day of all the songs I liked from the four solo albums. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 IIRC, Gene's was a lot of synth-y, smphony-y, ballad-like crap. And Peter's was almost all crap. It's been a loooong time since I've heard many of them, though.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Well, that's like your opinion, man. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 IIRC, Gene's was a lot of synth-y, smphony-y, ballad-like crap. And Peter's was almost all crap. It's been a loooong time since I've heard many of them, though.... Even at 12 years old I thought Gene doing "When you wish upon a star" was confusing, and it seemed less than cool at the time.

Lammycat Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Well, that's like your opinion, man.True enough, A-man! I like the concept of selecting better cuts off the 4 albums and compiling onto one tape. I would like to do that with Use Your Illusions I, II. I actually was thinking of that this morning in the shower. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atticus Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 so you're saying that Lenny Kravitz has a pretty good shot? QFT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I would like to do that with Use Your Illusions I, II. I actually was thinking of that this morning in the shower. Do you normally think of GnR while in the shower? Please, be honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atticus Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I would probably be able to enjoy some songs off the Uses Your Illusion, if I hadn't heard Appetite for Destruction. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Do you normally think of GnR while in the shower? Please, be honest.Often, actually. And Neil: Yeah, Appetite is a great album. There are some really good tunes on the Illusion albums, imo, and a bunch of pretty crappy/juvenile ones, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There are some really good tunes on the Illusion albums, imo, and a bunch of pretty crappy/juvenile ones, too. Use Your Illusion does not hold up in my opinion. The production isn't great and the drumming sucks. You Could be Mine is great though. What other songs are really good tunes? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What other songs are really good tunes?Yesterdays, Breakdown, Coma, The Garden, Estranged, Dead Horse, Bad Obsession, Bad Apples, Locomotive, Pretty Tied Up, Shotgun Blues,.... I like Matt Sorum's drumming, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atticus Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I think Matt is a solid drummer, but those Illusion albums are so over-produced in my opinion. Too much sheen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
