95-00

Basically nothing. This is the time period that most gnr fans and media fail to reconize. During this time, the band was still trying to figure out what to do next, band members leaving, old gnr breakup, Axl figuring out what to do next, New direction,lawsuits etc. Although Im sure music was put down in the late 90's most of the new stuff, the serious stuff began to materialize as the new band formed....

really, he had cd in 1999

He might have had material that could have made a cd but it wasnt completed. It would have been a hired gun type cd. Once again...as the band began to form in the early 2000's thats when the CD began to take shape and have continuity.

Those are the two best articles surrounding the 1995-2000 era particularly the Peter Wilkinson article entitled "What Happened To Axl Rose - The inside story of rock's most famous recluse" (which is the top link). Wilkinson knows more about Axl Rose then any other journalist in the industry at the moment, he has a lot of very good connections close to Rose. I was in touch with him just before Christmas although he simply will not talk about anything Axl related anymore. When Axl refused to turn in a 10,000 word missive that he'd written about the break up of the band Wilkinson took it rather badly. To say he has a personal vendetta against Rose would be an understatement and whilst his article tells us more about Axl in the "lost era" than any other his anti-Axl vibe shines through very brightly.

anyway Axl had to be off his fame somehow for awhile...he had to take a rest to run away from slash n' his fucking mates!!!! that's one reason why Axl didn't come back around 1995-2000...might a rock star to sell out a lot of shows around the planet n' come back to a studio to record another album again? axl is a human being, not a computer to reset it n' turn it on everyday! , grow up guys!
