As a kid the original members leaving sucked but everyone, including Axl with the new band, has put together some amazing stuff. Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: madagas on March 04, 2008, 05:22:33 PM I owned a bunch of stuff that ended up at the used cd store.... :hihi: Izzy's first record and 117 degrees were the only two I thought were worth a shit. Izzy has some good tracks sprinkled throughout all his albums I am sure.

Snakepit - Five O'Clock Somewhere Loaded - Dark Days Izzy & the Ju Ju Hounds Neurotic Outsiders Is VR really considered "solo" albums? Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: Wheres Izzy on March 05, 2008, 04:05:51 PM Snakepit - Aint Life Grand Snakepit - Five O'Clock Somewhere Loaded - Dark Days Izzy & the Ju Ju Hounds Neurotic Outsiders Is VR really considered "solo" albums? I get what you mean...but then The Ju Ju Hounds, Neurotic Outsiders, loaded, and Snakepit aren't really solo albums either. I think he meant post Guns work in general.

Ain't Life Grand Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: Skeletor on March 05, 2008, 07:20:49 PM Really tough to put the Izzy albums in a specific order... at the end of the day, all of them have some great tracks and some filler songs. So I'll just have to put it like this:
1. Izzy's solo material 2. Neurotic Outsiders 3. Libertad Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: KD8LNW on March 13, 2008, 01:42:54 AM Loaded Dark Days
Beautiful Disease ; Duff Neurotic Outsiders Ride On : Izzy River : Izzy Pawnshop Guitars : Gilby Like a Dog : Izzy Ju Ju Hounds: Izzy 117* : Izzy Believe in Me : Duff I dont consider VR in with the solo stuff, i did include NO as most of those songs were solo efforts that they brought in to the band.

Almost all of the material on N.O album was Steve Jones... but there was a couple of Duff tunes. And I think Johnny Taylor did some stuff but most of it ... the majority... was Steve Jones. Fucking love that album.

Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: Jay Tea on March 19, 2008, 12:21:31 AM 1. Gilby - Pawnshop
2. Duff - Believe In Me 3. Snakepit - IFOS 4. Gilby - Hangover 5. VR - Contaband 6. Kill For Thrills - Commercial Suicide I listened to Pawnshop Guitars almost as much as I listened to UYI i am less familiar with the later Duff, Slash, Izzy releases (96-present) and didn't hear all of Libertad yet (besides what they played on tour). I also have a feeling that I would love Buckethead and Bumblefoot albums if i got my hands on them. So this list is subject to change. Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: alejoyp on May 21, 2008, 12:44:48 PM 1- Pawnshop Guitars (Gilby)
2- Contraband (VR) 3- Like A Dog (Izzy) 4- It's 5 o'clock somewhere (Slash's Snakepit) 5- 117? (Izzy) 6- Adler's Appetite EP (AA) 7- Swag (Gilby) 8- Beautiful Disease (Duff) 9- Ju Ju Hounds (Izzy) 10- Neurotic Outsiders Don't like snakepit Ain't Life Grand (maybe the worst of ex-gunners material) neither Libertad (just a couple of songs but not as an album)... my favorite ex-gunners songwriters n' artists are Gilby n' Izzy Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: alejoyp on May 21, 2008, 12:52:20 PM AHHH... I forgot 2 say that I'm considering ex-gunners those who had record albums with Gn'r... Buckethead kick major asses... n' Supernova sucked...

VR-Libertad Gilby's PSG Snakepit 5o'clock somewhere Neurotic Outsiders Gilby's albums start out good, and trail off, IMO Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: Continental Drift on May 27, 2008, 07:09:17 PM 1. Gilby Clarke- Pawnshop Guitars
2. Gilby Clarke- The Hangover 3. Buckethead- Colma 4. Duff McKagan and Matt Sorum- Neurotic Outsiders 5. Izzy Stradlin'- Izzy Stadlin' & the Ju Ju Hounds I absolutely love those Gilby Clarke albums. I still think to this day that a great mid/late 90's GN'R album (with the UYI tour line-up) could have easily been put together based off the best material (and letting Axl and Slash add their personal touch) from those two albums and taking on a few Axl ballads (e.g. The Blues and Catcher In the Rye) . Too bad. Title: Re: Pick your top five (or ten) favorite solo albums from GN'R alumni Post by: Continental Drift on May 27, 2008, 07:13:52 PM Gilby's albums start out good, and trail off, IMO Fair enough. But like I said above... imagine melding together "the beginnings" of those two albums... letting Axl and Slash work on them some more (to really make the tracks "GN'R") and then adding "The Blues'' and "Catcher In The Rye" (2 new GN'R tunes I could easily see the old band coming up with)... That would have been a GREAT late 90's GN'R album IMHO... :drool: |
