I'd qualify that review by saying TSI's song choice was excellent. The production missed the point entirely (ie: it was awful). Punk rock with boomy, reverby Matt Sorum drums? No thanks.

I disagree with you entirely. I think Sorum did awesome job with this, and so did the production-part too. It's simple and it's great. The band did the songs their way, that's how they wanted it to be.

...the Motley (94) album...is a very, very good album just came out at the wrong time. Same goes with Subhuman Race from Skid Row another very strong album...

I totally agree on this. Believe it or not Warrant had their only two good albums come out during that time as well. Dog Eat Dog and Belly To Belly are both great albums that are WAYYYYYY better then anything they put out in their heyday but got totally overlooked because of when they were released.

But to get back to topic, you're right these lists are useless and dumb.

well the whole great artist thing is actually a compliment...so its hard to get pissed about that.....i think that people take TSI way too serioulsy....first of all its a COVER album they they threw together during the Illusion sessions....it wasnt some piece of art they labored over for years and put out...it was just a fun record.....afterall its called THE SPAGHETTI INCIDENT...how could you possibly take it seriously?

TSI is not a bad album.  I think including it on that list is a huge stretch.  It was just a cover album that the band did for fun and is entertaining enough to listen to.  Not a great album by any stretch but it's not bad either

even though its a cover album, TSI is just viewed as a horrible follow up to the UYI albums

And the idea of making a cover album is from the 80's, it wasn't made because they had nothing else to record after UYI's. I think it was a great ending for the UYI-tour, something light and simple.

Of course Rolling Stone has had hundreds of writers over the years, but it should be up to their editors to make sure that the magazine has a consistent point of view. If we can go back and read their previous reviews, their editors should as well.

I dunno. Maybe it's because I was familiar with the material in it's original form and had an emotional attachment to a lot of those songs. GnR didn't really do anything new with them aside from give them a big glossy sheen which to me kind of ruins the entire intent of most of those tunes.

Maybe I'd have a different view had I discovered the originals through that album.

Don't get me wrong though, I definitely give the band a thumbs up for giving attention to that music and getting people who probably would never have heard them otherwise exposed to some classic bands. GnR doing the Misfits and the Damned just isn't my cup of tea when I have the originals close at hand.

seriously, how can you call yourself a ROCK magazine when Britney Spears and Clay Aiken have adorned your cover.  RS is so 'whogivesafuck".

The Spaghetti Incident? is 10x better than Use Your Illusion II


My Top 5 Worst Albums by Great Bands

5. The Weirdness The Stooges
4. Rock In A Hard Place Aerosmith
3. Van Halen III Van Halen
2. Use Your Illusion II Guns N' Roses
1. St. Anger Metallica

St. Anger went number 1 in 30 different countries around the world. That does not deserve to be on the worst list because they tried to go back to their roots, playing hard and fast. The Spaghetti Incident was not relevant to anything GNR did at the time considering UYI I and II had epic ballads that drove the album. The Stooges don't belong on the list because they are not a great band.

The Spaghetti Incident is a mistake and an epic failure comparable to My World.
