He needed a producer willing to get in his face and tell him the score....and not get fired for doing it.
CD II should be released ASAP and Gn'R should find a producer to work with and get to work on another new album.
But Axl doesn't care anymore.
Guns N' Roses is dead. Let's just hope we get a post-mortem to wrap it up.

What a funny man.
I'm really bummed at this news.
I loved his SNL stint, his movie appearances, his ill-fated Sports Review show, his Netflix show, his stand up...
Guy was a master comic.

When Finck is begging for This I Love to be included and they squeeze it in under the wire and Ron lobbies for Atlas Shrugged but is vetoed because they've already filled the disc, there's no grand vision behind it.
To be fair, CD was always Axl's songs and some B-sides he wanted to throw on there.
This I Love was never a CD-era song. Finck probably wanted it on there because he's shining. And knows Axl could be a nutjob.

The locker stuff showed promised but that it - promise. I dig what was there but it wasn't nearly as complete or smooth as say It's So Easy or Mr. Brownstone. Competent and hard rocking but needed some wiggle.
And Axl's lyrics post-1991 (Oh My God very much excluded) were spotty at best.

Do you think Gn'R is releasing:
1. Hard School and Absurd only
2. A full-length LP (New album)
3. Live CD with studio bonus tracksI don't know the profit margins for albums in today's world, but I'd guess a live performance is most likely. We got the Vegas act on a Blu-Ray, and the Tokyo shows from 91?. If a studio was mixing and an album was shipping to print, we'd know about it. No one could keep that a secret and this forum would be flooded with copies of those tracks, just as we were in mid 2008 when CD shit started to leak from the album.
If they sold 100k copies of a physical single with or without Hard Skool attached to Absurd, I'd be shocked. Hell, my record collection and stereo is 6 feet behind me in my office, and 99% of the time I want to hear music, I say "Alexa".
I'm not getting my hopes up for a new album, personally.
I don't know how much business sense it makes to release a live album near the end of your tour. But that's probably the most likely option. Everyone profits from whatever release rights on already-popular back catalogue songs, it can fold into their streaming catalogue, they can sell it for Christmas, and so on. It's Live Era but they can make money off of it.
And no we wouldn't, re: album mixing, Axl and Caram do it wherever they need to. Axl's home studio, the road, wherever. No outside help necessary. I'm not going to say I know with a Capital-K where all the leaks came from but I do some of them and part of the reason for the leaks is about 100 people in and out the record company had the album in multiple and various iterations for YEARS. It's more surprising that more leaks didn't happen if you really think about it.

I just discovered a live version of "Like A Stone" that was a bonus for their 2nd album.
Amazing performance, amazing voice.
I'm not much of a fan of non-Audioslave Cornell but the dude was just an incredibly talented guy.
R.I.P.

Life is too short to focus on the negative.
