ChiDem only makes #14 on RS.com Lost Music list

[Sober_times]

I find the whole write-up pretty funny, the gnr part was small and was just a funny little bit, i mean the please e-mail us here, You?ll be our hero part had me crackin up.? I also thought it was funny that they kept referring people to file-sharing programs for certain "lost" items they listed.?

I wouldn't consider Chinese Democracy to be GN'R's lost album. The reason is that it is supposedly coming out "soon."

What I would consider GN'R's real lost album is the album that was talked about around 1996 that the old lineup had recorded. I know it's been said a million times on these boards, but it would be amazing if we ever got a box set with all the stuff recorded between 1994-1998.

call me dumb but i haven't heard to much of that. Can you give me a list of the songs and the rumored album name (if it wasn't CHINESE DEMOCRACY) i'd like to learn more I know that Shadow of your love and Crash Diet are just a few (right)

thanks in advanced


 

Nah those two are real old, written before Slash & Alder even joined. They weren't even considered for Appetite. The lost album is something completely different. It may contain an early version of This I Love, or it may have just been an instrumental version of Slash's Snakepit's first album. Whether Axl actually layed down vocals over songs written by Slash & Duff, etc. during this time, is doubtful. I'd imagine it's a bunch of instrumental ideas rather than any finished songs.

Holy shit, Chris "Mother Goose" Pitman is all over that list!  And not just for Chinese Democracy...

1. The Tapeworm demos. This collaboration between Trent Reznor and Tool?s Maynard James Keenan teased fans with its impending release for almost six years before the project was pronounced dead in 2004. A couple of the tracks did show up on the soundtrack to the film Underworld under the name Puscifer, but without Reznor. We know Rez is busy with Year Zero and all, but how about granting our wish, just this once.
          (Pitman played with Maynard James Keenan on several projects.  I wouldn't be surprised if he had a hand in this in some way)

5. The Replicants self-titled album Key members of mid-?90s L.A. rock gods Tool and Failure combine forces for a cover album that sounds like a glossy Nine Inch Nails covering John Lennon, Pink Floyd, Steely Dan and more. Their cover of Gary Numan?s ?Are Friends Electric?? is the highlight, and Maynard James Keenan?s guest vocals on Paul McCartney?s ?Silly Love Songs? is a must-hear. This CD is long out of print, but lives on (illegally) on glorious mp3)
           (Pitman played keys on this album.  The second best Pitman album behind Lusk)


7. Ice Cube & Dr. Dre Heltah Skeltah This reunion album for the ex-N.W.A. members never saw release, but it did produce the G-funkalicious single ?Natural Born Killaz.? With Dre on the verge of releasing his Detox and Ice Cube doing the Hollywood thing, one track may be all we?re getting from the duo.
        (Pitman installed Dr. Dre's home recording studio and showed him how all the new technology works.  But this was recorded before then)
