In Their Own Words: Slash: Axl sang a part in 'The Garden,' and it sounded exactly like Alice Cooper, I mean, it sounded exactly like Alice. So we were like, 'Let's get Alice to do it,' you know, rather than just steal his style. So Alice came down and sang it. It was cool." Alice Cooper: I was in LA, staying at the Sunset Marquis. I was watching an old movie when Axl called me. It was about two in the morning and he says, 'Hey, listen, can you do the vocal on this song 'The Garden'? I went down there and I listened to it and said, 'Yeah, I'll do it.' So we do it but when Axl sings, you can't stay with him. I'm sitting there and I'm trying to do a duet with him and I said, 'Listen guys, this is my range. I end right here.' He was two octaves ahead of me and I'm going, 'Okay, okay. You do the real high parts and I'll stay down here.' When you're in the studio, a one-on-one with him, it's really amazing. When he's on the other mike, you're like, 'Jeez this guy can really sing.' Axl was a definite perfectionist . Almost to the point where you wanted to say, 'At some point, Axl, it's gonna be good enough.' With 'The Garden,' it was an easy bit for me to do. I did my bit maybe three times but when Axl was doing his vocals, he treated it very intricately. Rock and roll isn't supposed to be perfect. I'm afraid of it sounding too perfect. I mean, Bob Ezrin recorded Pink Floyd's The Wall three times. They probably did it like six times before they put it out. You never know if a person is not happy with it or if they're afraid of the material. The Beatles must listen back to Sgt. Pepper and go, 'Oh, man, why didn't we do this?' As an artist, you gotta know when the painting is done. Slash: I came up with the solo that day in the studio, so there wasn't much practicing involved. I had the basic idea, improvised it, and did it a couple of times. I played it overhand. This solo is particularly focused, in terms of where your energy is. I thought of Jeff Beck. That's cool. I like Jeff Beck. Title: Re: What songs did Izzy sing on?

Title: Re: What songs did Izzy sing on? Post by: gnrvrrule on November 15, 2004, 02:27:47 PM It's sad that Izzy did not get to play on certain songs, like Civil War, Locomotive, and The Garden. He also played very sparingly on songs like Coma (I don't think he played the rhythm part during the solo, it sounds like Slash). Yet, some songs, like Estranged, Don't Cry, and Double Talkin' Jive, his guitar is very noticeable and defines the song in many ways. In many of the songs, his guitar is droned out by Slash's two guitars and the pianos. Don't get me wrong, I love the Illusion records, but they would have sounded better with just the two guitars playing off each other, like on Appetite and Lies.

Post by: jarmo on November 27, 2004, 08:57:56 AM I took all the song info on the site from the UYI LPs and a while back people asked why Izzy wasn't listed as the singer on that track.
