    Last time I saw Boston, they introduced not a "backup singer", but an "assistant singer" to help out with the high parts that they could no longer hit. I thought it was great. I loved that they announced it right up front, and gave credit to him.

    In my opinion, I think Roberta and Traci were awesome as backup singers, and Cece, Lisa and Anne were fine to play the songs that they got hired, also Teddy with the harmonica and keyboard was pretty cool, for example only one step down of the one in the album, I really like the version of November Rain in Tokyo ‘92.
    And of course Guns N’ Roses was in his prime back then, I wasn’t born at the time, but I saw them with Axl, Slash and Duff in 2018 ‘cause it’s my favorite band, the concert was amazing and speechless, it seemed to me that they keep that level that I saw on the videos of those years.

    From 85 to 91 it was 5 guys, ever since then there has been 6-8 people on stage. So for the vast majority of their existence, GNR has had more than they started with. So I guess I don't have a problem with the added musicians

    Doesn’t seem like a big deal now but i remember how it was controversial with the fans at the time…the kids were all about the hard rocking metal vibe and suddenly there was backing singers, grand pianos and horns like some old time pop group. I remember many kids ditched Guns for the more pure heavy metal sounds of Metallica. Guns n Roses were like a gateway into the more heavier bands for many of the fans

    At the time the media and folks try to write them off as bloated, but they set the standard. Two decades later n look at the pop acts now bigger than a striped down horn n key sections. When you do things for the 1st time ppl talk shot and have opinions. Having different way of play the same song live is artistic as fuck! Yeah it was different than the Ritz N Club days, but it was still gangsta as hell, Taste good, Don’t it?

    Guns N Roses wasn't GnR after they started adding all the excess people. Appetite For Destruction was one of the best albums of all time IMO. GnR Lies was good. The illusions albums had some good songs on it. But that's because they were written for Appetite For Destruction. They ceased to be the same band once Steven and Izzy were gone.

  • @dgenerated
    @dgenerated 3 года назад

    And today many bands play along with prerecorded tracks, which im ok with, so long as they are used minimally.. They are used ti fill out sections of songs, backup vocals, etc as in the studio there can be multiple guitar parts, keyboards, etc that the band would have to hire additional musicians to fill out the sound or sound closer to the album.... Problem is these tracks are Over used and abused and some are cool with the entire band miming to their cd and nothing is live and a lot of pop bands have done this, but its supposed to be a LIVE performance, not lip synching to a fully prerecorded song!.. I don't know if Guns ever used tracks as they have so many additional musicians on stage, but I disagree with added horns and such that aren't on the album!.. Excuse the rant that simply states a live performance should be either 100% live or as close to it as possible!..

    @christostefan 5 лет назад +7

    The bare bones rock n roll band of street toughs is what I signed on for. Piano in the band and some horns on the records, fine. The rest is just a waste of space. They could've pared down Use Your Illusion into one epic record that equaled or surpassed Appetite. Instead the two half filler albums that were anticlimactic. At the time the double album big production felt like a jip. And they still feel meh between the great tracks. The meh songs would've been great eventually like don't cry and you could be mine became after more refinement.

    • @Kylersinjin
      @Kylersinjin 5 лет назад +1

      I thought about a condensed version of the Illusion album since they had the one sold at Walmart. That would have been way more Epic, just 10 to 12 songs, all Barn burners.

    • @pastorofmuppets325
      @pastorofmuppets325 5 лет назад +1

      I couldn't disagree more. There's only maybe 5 songs on the entirety of the two albums that aren't worth listening to. They are as follows:
      UYI1:
      Back off Bitch
      Garden of Eden
      Don't Damn Me
      UYI2:
      Shotgun Blues
      My World
      I really enjoy everything else to this day. Granted, some are better than others, but still... They are great rock albums. There's a reason BOTH of those records sold OVER FIVE MILLION COPIES EACH!!!

    • @Kylersinjin
      @Kylersinjin 5 лет назад +1

      Yeah they both sold millions of copies because there are good songs on both albums. But neither album by itself has the song quality of appetite. I think if they were to trim the fat, a single use your Illusion album would have been a better follow up. I love both of the albums, but neither would ever be on my favorite list because of all the songs I have to skip.

      Nah that's lame man. Plenty of awesome bands from the seventies that used piano players, horn players, female backup vocals.
      What Guns did was different than what every other band was doing which is what sets great bands apart from all the others.
      The rolling Stones always had a pano player, and tink it was lame how the record companies didn't like the look of him so they kept the stones a 5 piece band for purposes of pleasing the masses. Stones also had horn sections and lots of different instruments and they were known as the world's most dangerous band, and the standard bearer for hard rock.
      It would have been obnoxious on every song or songs it wasn't required but they didn't really do that other than add piano to patience which was a good touch in my opinion.

      @@jonnycolt3124 yeah never heard about that. I'm not a super big stones insider but I watched a documentary on it recently.
      All I know is use your illusion albums like them or not we're not similar to what other bands at the time were doing.
      Many claim it was a much more mainstream record than appetite but I would say it was the exact opposite. Maybe Don't Cry, bit other than that even Novemenr Rain and Estranged werent the way typical pop songs were written. From that oersoective grunge was much more pop and radio frwidnly than most the tracks on Use Your Illusion. The album lacked hit songs because their were progressive songs, too many curse words, to many long guitar soloes, and a lot of them were too blues based (dust n bones , 14 years, bad obsession, bad apples) or to punk rock (rndh, perfect crime, garfen of Eden, shotgun blues), or even to metal (don't damn me , and Coma which Coma is one of the songs that's even a bit or has elements of progressive rock along with locomotive). Some songs were even country like you ain't the first.

    Back in 1992 (age 13) I loved GnR no matter what and didn’t really notice all the “big band” crap they added. Now I can barely listen to those shows. Any live show from 1992 definitely feels less cool than stuff from 87-91 and 1993. Matt Sorum’s drumming on the AFD songs doesn’t help either.
