      The Reason This Video is In this format is because it was Blocked!! So I have to Re-edit Making it smaller is the only way it will stay up until I get more space on Vimeo to upload my blocked videos, TH-cam can’t detect the small videos

      ​@@jamelakajamal ​ That's fine with me. This beats having to go to Vimeo. I can see you just fine, and the sound quality is not affected in any way.
      But it appears they get blocked anyway, as happened with the Tom Jones track. Modifying video does little when it is the audio track that is the copyright issue.
      Ah well. Peace out, and let the music play! At least as long as you are able, my friend.

      Cause he'd pushed everyone away so much that when Slash was asked, years ago, if they'd tour again, his answer was "Not in this lifetime."
      So again, hopefully he has grown, as we all should strive to do.

    A pretty cool story during the demo recording of this song, the demo producer suggested adding a breakdown at the end of the song. The band agreed, but didn’t know what to do.
    While listening to the demo on a loop, Axl Rose kept saying to himself, “Where do we go? Where do we go now” (meaning he didn’t know what to do for a breakdown).
    The demo producer said, ‘why not sing that?’ And that’s where the “where do we go now” breakdown came from😎🤘🏼

    Guns n Roses were playing at Calder Park Raceway, just outside Melbourne, Australia, the home at the time of AUSCAR (Australia's short lived version of NASCAR)
    It was a 40C day, (which they were famously charging $4 for water at), 75,000 people in the crowd, 1,000 treated for heat-related illness, Guns 'n' Roses fame on hours late, a thunderstorm passed over, dropping the temperature to 25C in minutes, turning Calder Park into mud, with the concert running late, buses were unavailable to get people back to Melbourne, with people queuing for ages to get out of there.
    But that concert will forever go down in folklore here.

    It's unbelievable how many rock gigs across the USA end their nite by simply doing a guitar solo of this...no drums...no backup instruments...no vocals....just a single musician playing a steel with every person in the audience mesmerised with everything else filled in by their memories of the song....

Axl sure did have issues back then but none of the guys were without blame, they all had huge problems.

    I read "Slash's book and from memory he was born in London to an English dad and Afro-American mom and then went to live in Stoke -on -Trent when his mom moved back to LA(She worked in the fashion/design business and dated David Bowie at one time)
    Slash and his dad then rejoined her in The USA....He said he remembered their house was always full of interesting "Bohemian" type of people coming and going.
    He partied really hard and admitted to sometimes drinking a bottle or 2 of vodka before lunch and eventually had to have some sort of "Heart pace maker" type of device fitted to keep him alive.
    He's one of the greatest guitarists I've heard coz he played from his soul but he hated that Axl Rose would regularly keep the crowd waiting before showing up on stage.
    Love G&R though.

  • @madelineg522

    It was nuts when they came out with this song, and Welcome To The Jungle'. The 80s had so many genres popular, then gone. This came out when radio-type long hair bands were big, and the big 4 heavy metal bands were getting big. It seemed like nothing could come out and matter much, but these ones combined blues with their feelings and heavy style. They took it all, and it was a great surprise... of course that could just be where I lived at the time...
