Beltrami told someone on my site years ago that Seven was based on the movie of the same name.
The movie thing I did know from somewhere I guess that's why some people call it Se7en. There's a bit of a repeating theme from songs back then about killers CITR,Zodiac,
Did Beltrami tell you anything about any guest appearances on The General from a female singer? There were reports of it in 2003 on a few sites, though seems largely forgotten by the fanbase. Sarah Brightman, Andrew Lloyd Webbers ex wife.
I think the Sarah Brightman thing was fake. I didn't get much from Beltrami. I posted email addresses so others could try. I tried Sebastian Bach too ages ago, but the guy, he's lovely, but he was so vague. He tried describing the song, but I couldn't post what he said because there was nothing of note lol. I tried one of his ladies too, I remained friends with her for a long time, but again, it never offered any info
Zodiac came from a journalist, the one who said it sounded like Teen Spirit/Nirvana
I sought out and got a copy of Opera magazine from 2003 that she was meant to have had the interview in and can confirm it's bullshit they never interviewed her.

Thanks!
I wasn't visiting the boards back at 2012-2013.Fuck that's amazing! Anybody know why/ how comes it surfaces again ?
I don't know that its that it surfaced again. I just think they are less stringant about having things pulled from Youtube than they used to be. Many of the locker leak songs are up on multiple channels and have been for a while. If that had happened a few years back they would have been flagged very quickly

Someone from Creative Works London posted on here a very long time ago, no idea if they still lurk or anything though.
Has the studio of a Slash version of better leaked? I'd never heard of a Slash version I thought there was just a DJ remix and a Ron Acoustic version.
I don't know if this is an unkown about Brain remix for Absurd or what but this company is clearly being given audio
https://tr.ee/Wmc8KzDbvM
Cant figure how to rip audio from them, not too bothered about absurd but would be good to know how

No and to be fair I cant say for sure that version has been recorded, but certianly when Slash came back and Recce joined they reworked the intro if you remember, someone did do a pretty convincing fan made version of it but it wasn't real. There's also the Brain version Better Gone.....It's awful lol
Someone asked creative Works if they had done a video for The General and they left a shocked emoji and asked "who this mysterious general was" or something to that effect.
If it's on the setlist then I'm pretty sure they must have done some stage video for it same with Perhaps. Who was the poster on here who worked for them?
#625 Re: Guns N' Roses » 2023 Tour Dates » 105 weeks ago
By the way the current vdeo that have on the big screen before ISE, does anyone know if the audio is lifted/ sampled off anything unrelated to guns?
Creative Works London would have made the video I might ask them on FB, there response about The General the other day was interesting
#626 Re: Guns N' Roses » 2023 Tour Dates » 105 weeks ago
I find the remixes kinda fun - if the world was cool too - but they're more like "fun bonus disk content" to me than like "this is what the album should have been" - with the exception of those TIL vocals which rock!
I think that's basically what they were for, a bonus disc. Except all of the Better's , I think that was like a homework type thing he would give everybody to see what they could do with it. Explains why there is a Brain version, Ron version, Ashba version, even a Slash and Reece version.
Pretty sure there is a studio version of the Sorry remix too.
#627 Re: Guns N' Roses » 2023 Tour Dates » 105 weeks ago
Sorry if that posts off topic btw lol.
There's more remix's than people know I think, some good some bad, I wonder what the reaction would have been had they been released though, not great i think
#628 Re: Guns N' Roses » 2023 Tour Dates » 105 weeks ago
I dont have all of these anymore due to HD fuck up but
TIL remix- First clip leaked in December 2013 which pissed me off as I was hoping to use it to trade with, still doubt it would have worked as the remix's are worth less in a trade. Shortly after the clip leaked I found a 30 second clip sat on 4shared that had clips of Silk, OMG, TIL, & the other remixes.
Axl said this about TIL in 2008 on the forum chats.
“The main string melody in that section (meaning the bridge) I had originally written to a hip-hop loop as
well.” ( AXL CD.COM 2008 )
That sort of hints that the remix is probably closer to the actual original that you might expect. Vocals sound 2006 or 2010 to my ears but given that song dates back to the early 90's (Axl mentions it on the Robert John Doc) Those vocals could in therory be the oldest of the CD era.
The shackler's remix was done in December 2007
Brain: Axl is really interested in having everybody bring what they do into the picture. I just did a remix of
"Shackler’s,” - made it kind of more club. And I think he wants to put out a remix album of some of the other
songs we did. http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/arti … icleid=175
My friend Brain is the drummer for Guns N' Roses (he also used to be the drummer for Primus). He wrote
two of the songs on the new Guns N' Roses record 'Chinese Democracy" released late last year.
He and his musical collaborator Melissa Reese worked up a hip hop/club version of the song 'Shackler's
Revenge" with programmed beats and additional loops and cool sounds. They asked me to mix it. I've been
chipping away at it for a few weeks over the Christmas holidays and finally I think it is done. I'm quite happy
with how it turned out, it is pretty wacky though! (later, sometime in February) Brain called to say that Axl
Rose finally heard the remix and really likes it. Yay!.. (Sean Beresford Sunday,January, 2009)
The remix actually was posted on Sean's profile page for a short time before being removed.
http://www.blightysound.com/Blighty_Sou … %99_Roses_-
_Shackler_Revenge_club_remix.html (broken link)
If that interview with Sean was in January 2009 and Brain called him in February then it follows that Brain
and Mellisa Reese made the remix in December 2007. Which proves that at least this remix actually predated Chinese Democracy's release
#629 Re: Guns N' Roses » 2023 Tour Dates » 105 weeks ago
Where in the hell is this dance remix of TIL?
Now that I think about it....other than shit like that acoustic Better and that pure shit version of Silkworms with Ron on it, I don't think I ever bothered listening to any of that stuff.
Only thing I remember that might be similar to that stuff is Melissa singing that wacky version of Sorry.
Too many drugs...too many years ago.
I gotta say I like that version of Sorry, It's a shame we dont have a studio version of that yet we have 17 versions of Better.

Sky Dog wrote:Scraped Shacklers Sorry…look at the credits and there is some dude named Scaturro in there as well.
Bucket...Brain...Scaturro....the Giant Robot Production.
When we got the Village leaks, fans finally got a glimpse of the so called shadow lineups concept.
When listening to songs like Sorry, Dub Suplex, Prom Violence, Devious Bastard, and crap like Dummy, Realdoll, and Shackler, you're not listening to GNR....you're listening to songs, jams, and snippets brought to the table by Giant Robot.
You can probably place Zodiac 13 in this category as well. In fact...I'd wager my left nut on it.
Yeah even if the discs were not labeled you can tell that this disk is Bucket/Brain/Scaturro and this other disk is Stinson/Fink.
The only one that sounded like it could be hard to place main songwriter wise was Rebel, I remember Axl saying they tried to write songs in the "Old style" but that they didn't really work. Well Rebel has to be one of them, can see what they were going for but it sounds way to formulaic. RTB produced that one, there's a guy who must have some stories to tell
