Here Today... Gone To Hell!

I was worried when Bucket left, especially for Madagascar. Have you guys heard the boots on this bad boy that used to be BH's solo? The one over the quotes? Richard rips it up and makes it his own and its fucking mindblowing. What do you think?

Fortus is pretty awesome.

P.S why do you have two of the exact same topics???

im sorry for the double posting. something happened and i can't delete it...my bad...

Richard, Ron and Pittman are really responsible for the new 'solo'. I still prefer Bucket's writing but it is a nice replacement.

Any one else notice the new vocal style for the last verse? Axl changes it up a bit and really re-invigorates the end of the song.

Which version are you talking about?

This is the Budapest version which I actually like alot. The last verse is really energized.

yes, i totally did notice the changes in axl's voice in last verse....really great .....

I guess they did the best they could, however Buckets solo was much more melodic than this which kinda sounds like (A good) improvisation. I'm glad Fortus did the replacement solo as aposed to Robin tho, it makes a change.

The versions in 02 of The Blues and Madagascar are a lot better. I hope that's what we hear on CD. Axl's voice sounds awful on this version of Madagascar.

that sounds awesome.

Any one else notice the new vocal style for the last verse? Axl changes it up a bit and really re-invigorates the end of the song.

kv is 100% correct...it was awesome : ok:

I would definitly have to agree on that point . The entire band sounds amazing doin Madagasgar .

The entire song seems to have a new flavor.  Axl seems to be controlling his voice really well in this version, and some of that "rasp" is back.  I also agree that the new ending is an improvement - it adds a nice, unexpected touch.   The old version was good, but this is definitely an added bonus. 

do you mind stop posting the defected links?!
take a look at the appetite for collection.

and you could at least give credits when already posting someone elses mp3s.

Madagascar is the Kashmir of the 21st Century.

Thanks for the link!  :beer:

How could anyone be worried when BH left? I was rather satisfied.
Anyway, I like the way Axl changed the vocal line at the end, it sounds great.

I like the new added guitar parts.

"That its never...too late" at that part there new parts sounds brilliant. And then more for the next few sentences.

I like fortus and all but buckethead's solo near the end of the quotes is the climax of the whole song, if they take that away on the album Ill be destined to hear madagascar live from rock in rio 3 for the rest of my life instead of the one on the album...but let us just hope the solo will stay...

Axl's new voice is a bit of a shame cos I can't do it too well.

I nailed his '02 voice perfectly.

The last verse is amazing

The link is not working! :'(
