Axls taste in music:

[Aero]

[...], Run-DMC, [...]. In other words, he likes bands that dont release albums.

ehem... I don't think that Run DMC can release new albums 

[Agno]

Axl was a big fan of U2 in 1993. That's what I read in an Guns n roses fanzine from 1993.

[ppbebe]

Axl is much more diverse than that! He also likes Frank Sanatra and Bessie Smith. There are just to many to mention.

Yea sounds so diverse as if he had no particular taste.

[MikeB]

Axl gives all type of music a chance which is cool . I don't share the same taste in music with him but  I definetly don't like one of the same thing. That's why u should like different things so you don't get tired of them.

[Cornell]

He also said that he has always idolized Aerosmith so I'm sure he was thrilled to open for them in the 80's.

[whiny]

some other acts n?artists the man likes (or liked at some point in his life that we - the fans - are not a part of anymore, it seems): fiona apple, queen, cure, todd rundgren, john lennon, stones, zeppelin, steely dan, rob zombie, sex pistols, nirvana, elton john (especally the early work til 1975), who, alice cooper, hanoi rocks, grateful dead, pink floyd, fear, germs, derek & the dominos, aerosmith, eagles n?don henley, bar-kays, metallica (at least "fade to black"), david bowie, tom petty, qeensryche, saigon saloon, nwa, patti smith...

...but talking about axls taste of music, you might consider the following statement "I'm a big Metallica fanatic. I like the new Queensr?che record. We listen to everything. Pop, it's hard to say, if you tell someone you like the new Michael Jackson song, everybody thinks you like everything Michael Jackson ever did. So, it's weird to have to say what you like. We usually like to get into a song or even a part of a song of just about anybody. We'll sit down and go 'nah, that sucks, but there's that one bass part that's cool.' " axl

[Jessica]

oki, basically, our axl is NORMAL

 

[gilld1]

He was also spotted at a System of a Down concert a few years back.  He seems to be ahead of the curve in most cases.

[Eazy E]

N.W.A. & DMX   

[Mike]

He's relly into kasabian right now he likes there music.

[ppbebe]

Kasabian?
Me too for a year n so.  I think Richard says he likes them.

[Mike]

Richard is more into cars right now,rather than his guitars

[jameslofton29]

Oh, thats just fucking great! Instead of working on the album, Richard is working on Axl's ferrari!

[Mike]

Axl aint got a ferrari?

[jameslofton29]

I'm sure he's got a Ferrari in his fleet of vehicles. Why do people like you just discount what someone says instead of adding something to the conversation? If you were gonna say I was wrong, you could have at least given an example of a car he owns. You are now on my ignore list.

[estranged.1098]

Axl likes all kinds of music. Someone mentioned in an interview (IIRC) that Axl used to give him a credit card to go out and buy a bunch of different albums for him.

I think thats a major difference between Axl and Slash

Axl has always kept his ear to the ground in terms of new bands/acts whereas Slash has always stuck to his traditional roots.

Slash's playing in VR is a little more modern in parts, but its still fairly traditional RnR

[Falcon]

He's relly into kasabian right now he likes there music.
