Could it have been .44 caliber horticulture?

Yes, I have this on vinyl bought back in 1989.  Both NR demos are on it.

I got that version a while ago (off the hub I think).  It's wonderful.  The Illusions version of NR is a masterpiece, but this version is just raw and bare bones, and its still incredible.  Hearing some of these old recordings is one of the reasons why I love GnR so much.

This has been out for awhile no?

I've had it for a bunch of time.

Don't think it's too rare.

The finished Illusion version is so overplayed, it's hard to listen to it and get any kind of true feeling. Hearing the demo again reminds me of when I first heard November Rain on Illusion was like " what a pretty cool song "

Yeah, they were both on it. I remember having a casette dub of a dub of a dub of a dub (of a dub ok) back in 89 or 90. It also had 'Shadow of Love' and 'Whole lotta Rosie' on it, well, my dubbed casette tape did at least.


I still wish they went with the stripped down piano version on UYI.. I never really liked NR as after hearing these raw versions it just seemed too overproduced.

November Rain is a masterpiece the way it is.

Sometimes you just gotta say, "get me a piano, and get that fuckin' guitar away from me".

Right, but there is a piano demo similar to this version. Very raw & bare-bones, just Axl & a piano, same hollow vocal style.

Oh I know, and I love it. But there's also a guitar-driven one, that just doesn't work for me.

GnR should've done an acoustic album of all their songs. Axl's voice is so fuckin cool alongside an acoustic guitar
