Those leaks in 06 of Catcher and the older versions of TWAT and IRS. That same source was a six song disc/tape transfer that included Hard School, Atlas and Prostitute.
.
If the disc i'm talking about from April 08 that had 6 songs on was played to execs to gauge opinion on single choice, then it seems logical the disc you are talking about was made for the same purpose years before. Given how many times that album was delayed it makes you wonder how many of those discs were made over the years.

I should be more specific.
One person on CD.Com called deaddemocracy claimed it was fake & that it was by Decoder and was called All I Ever Wanted. It was a 44 second clip that I haven't heard myself that was meant to have a pink floyd style guitar part & Axl stlye scream. Everyone seemed pretty dead set it was fake. Then years later that same song name crops up again.
seems odd

I was going to say Bucket is all over CD.
Reading over this thread, I had no idea the hoarders had CD2 since 2008. I always assumed it was from 2012 on.
I just read this article and it mentions a song I haven't seen anyone talk about, maybe one of the other unknown songs that were recorded during the sessions. If real Axl had done a collaboration with Joe Strummer from the Clash before he passed away.
If I remember right Janky Holocaust was a hoax.
Weirdly a fake leak of Thyme in 2008 that got bundled in with all the other fakes has an odd coincidence to it. It was meant to be by a band called decoder and the song was called All I Ever Wanted.
The title lines up with a song name from the engel & engel paperwork that leaked years later. Anyone remember this?

Isn't Bucket's Shackler solo basically inaudible?
I believe you can hear it buried in the guitar multitrack but it's been years since I listened

Been trying to get these for years, The DAT tapes were taken from the trunk of his car while he was in hospital and taken to Canada.
FBI files make for some interesting reading https://vault.fbi.gov/eric-wright-easy-e-ez-e
I always wondered if the GN'R songs were on those tapes and that interview a bit back sort of confirmed it. Slash and Duff were on the songs according to Ruthless Records paperwork, there's a few press releases where it's mentioned actually.
It was meant to come out May 11th 1993
Yellow Brick Road To Compton was one. I used to hear rumblings about a song called Apocolypse and a third was this with Slash on

And then they decided, bafflingly, to go with Chinese Democracy but not whip up a radio edit that got rid of the minute-long ambient intro.
Yep, the song itself is a logical choice but having the intro on there for a single was not a good idea. If they were played songs that could be singles I suspect they were played Hardschool too, I love the locker leaks version but even that had too long an intro for a single tbf

Way back in April 2008 people on Cd.com were talking about how a DJ on Krock105.5 spoke about how industry people were being played 6 songs. I can only go by what the people who heard that have claimed but the general theme was these songs were being played to gauge what could be a decent first single.
This was also spoken about by eonline a few days later http://www.eonline.com/gossip/planetgos … cd304270b5
It's obviously possible that these people were played songs in person for security reasons and not allowed to keep them. However these were industry people who were hardly going to risk there jobs and reputation by being careless with sampler discs before the album had come out.
If it's true that some songs switched back and forth from CD1 to CD2 then any of those 6 track sampler CD's (again if they exist) could have at least a song or two that wound up being kept over for CD2 on them.
I have way too much time on my hands to think about this stuff lol.

You only need to ask Evader how many hours he plunged into his version on The general. If AI speeds it up there will be more and the fanbase will be flooded.
I'm very much looking forward to being able to, for example, feed an AI the demo version of Hardschool and the released Hard Skool, and saying, "Replace the drums on the finished version with the drums from the demo." Or "Replace the vocals on This I Love with the ones from the remix, dial up the orchestra a fraction and replace the solo with Slash's live version from Orlando 2016." We're not far off being able to do that sort of thing.
I know, it will get to that point. There will be a lot of fan remixes appearing in the next year I expect.
Freese's isolated drums from Hardschool are insane, so is the TIL accapella
