I guess it could also be related to the terms of the contract which would be a fairly archaic one if it dates back to 80’s. I suppose they would already know this.and there still hasn’t been anything primed for immediate release. Maybe legally force is a bit extreme.but perhaps a decent bargaining tool.”if you give us an album then he deal is done and you can go and do whatever you like after” is maybe more realistic. which is a good thing for all involved 😄 I think UMG would love a new GNR record for a sales bump (in whatever year it appears), but I think they are happy to wait. in which time they could tour but that's about the sum of it! although, I guess they could do leak the record, think they know a thing or two about that!Īxl might be the 'chill Axl' now, but put into a corner and told 'Do it now!!' the old dog with come out again, especially now with Duff and Slash at his side. I'm not sure they could legally force it, and if they did try there's no way we'd ever hear anything GNR related again - outside of them suing and leaving the company with their recorded work! I think the band would take them to court and they would remain in court for years. We all know about Chinese and how no-one could get it released for years/the record company were still willing to throw money at it.however that whole saga is a ‘one in a million’ case and we would never see a case like that again.Ĭould they legally force the/a album out if even to finish the contract? Just e if Geffen/UMG etc have an option on another album (common thought was there was one more) how much power can the company wield to get it? I’d be amazed if they made the same mistake. If I remember, to the fact that the company wanted to make sure they listened to what he fans want.that itself might not translate to a better price but a simple look at the sales figures/MI will show they completely missed the target. I fear it won't be though.but many people will know now not to get their fingers burned by buying straight away if not and wait until it falls to a quarter (or less) of it's starting price in a very short space of time. The Locked and Loaded was always going to be a tough sell at that insane price, so as you say, hopefully pricing will be a big consideration in the future. That is was more than triple that on release helped the general idea that it wasn't worth bothering with. the price it is now being sold for on the official site. Really, the AFD super deluxe (4 disc+ blu ray) should never have been more than $50 from the start - i.e.
All were worth remembering.Price is so critical regarding how a UYI reissue would be received. Two years later, Appetite for Destruction came out, and from there, the band, and Axl’s, steady rise and equally sloping decline.įrom goatees to corn rows, pimp canes to belly tops, Axl Rose has been through more than a few phases. A few months and several line-up changes later the band enlisted Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan and Steven Adler. By 1985, he’d started Guns N’ Roses, the combination of he and Tracii Guns’ existing bands, L.A. Axl Rose.Īnd that’s when the magic started. The experience was so all-consuming that he legally changed his name to W. When the police threatened to charge him as a career criminal, he moved to Los Angeles in 1982. Rose was frequently in trouble with the police and spent time in jail on charges of public intoxication and battery. He eventually moved to California, working odd jobs and playing in bands until the formation of Guns N’ Roses in the mid-1980s. on February 6, 1962, in Lafayette, Indiana. It’s hard to believe it now, but there was a time when Axl Rose was on top of the world.Īxl Rose was born William Bruce Rose Jr.
