Crash Dieet was written by the late West Arkeen, GN'R didn't use it but Asphalt Ballat did.

That solo is so grunge sounding  :hihi:

RIP Wes Arkeen....  Axl called him the sixth member of the band back in the day.

One of these days, I need to check out the Asphalt Ballet version of the song.

Yeah RIP West - co-wrote some cool songs.

Anyway...what i ment to ask was - I have a demo boot version that sounds like its with Axl - does anyone know who else is playing? Like is it Axl with other people, or with GNR, and if GNR is it Slash/Izzy or some other line up.......

 :peace:

I'm pretty sure it wasn't Slash who played lead on it either....I think maybe West did. Either way yeah it's on the Asphault Ballet album called Pigs.  I found it in a pawn shop a long time ago.  Axl is singing in the background on the original version of AB's, even though he's only credited as co-writing it.  You can easily hear him.
