There are still *at least* three left with vocals, State of Grace, Oklahoma and Seven, besides Atlas

Oklahoma and Seven are the final big guns.

Once those get leaked/released...it's over.

All that's left after that is just random leftovers I can live without.

Unfortunately, we don't know for sure these final big guns have vocals.

Even if they do, the way these songs on "the second half of Chinese" have been developed, they get a verse and a chorus and a not so great mix.

I still want to hear them though.

Chinese Democracy should’ve been this and we could have got a shitload of music and everyone could have moved on

Disk One                          Disk Two
1. Chinese Democracy   1. The General
2. TWAT                       2. Soul Monster
3. Better                       3. Atlas Shrugged
4. The Blues                  4. Perhaps
5. Riad                          5. Hard Skool
6. IRS                           6. Quick Song
7. Prostitute                   7. Seven
8. Shackler’s                  8. Catcher
9. Scraped.                    9. State of Grace
10. Thyme                   10. Going Down
11. This I Love             11. Zodiac
12. Maddy                    12. Oklahoma
13. If The World            13. Sorry

I think all the original stuff will surface at some point on a huge boxset. Why not?

Now is not the time. Once the reunion happened, CD2 was toast. It’s unfortunate because I want the dudes on there who wrote it.

I am a way bigger CD era fan than you are.  And its bonkers you cant hear VR in the Monsters song.
Even if its not Slash and Duff, it sounds just like a VR song musically.

And who said the solos sound the same. WE are talking about the style of the overall song

The bass style is very similar as is the guitar style.

It's put into question if this demo really is Slash and Duff. Speculation is Monsters is from an uncirculated batch of 2006 discs that features all the other songs we've heard about that have been rumored about to be recorded by Slash and Duff returned to the live band tour in 2016 to 2023.

With all due respect you sound more like a Slash fan than you do a Robin, Bucket, Tommy, and Brain. You defend Slash so much and you're like one of the biggest Slash defenders on the forums. I don't defend Slash because I don't like Slash. I don't like Slash since he left. And he didn't leave peacefully. Slash left because he wanted to keep the nightrain going and Axl wanted more November Rain. Creative differences. The same thing that broke up John and Paul.

But I don't support 2023 Axl because Axl still won't release CD2 and CE3 with Robin and Bucket. And instead 2023 Axl let's Slash and Duff ruin Robin's and Bucket's art to PUMP UP the live tour and keep the cash rolling in. It's not about integraty and respect for Axl, it's all about the money for Axl. the money that keeps the cash train rolling all night long. the solo in VR is a standard, by the numebrs solo. Nothing special. But the solo on The General by Robin Finck is something so creative we've never heard before in a rock song. The same for the solo on Monsters if that is Robin. If it is Slash, then I'll give him the credit. But Monsters is still a question mark. But the Robin fans I ask on social media think Monsters is Robin too. And to me it's about the solos. Style overrall doesn't stand out. Rock solos do. The rock solo is where the money is in a song.

The speculation  has been its slash and duff not that its from 2006 LOL
Where do you come up with this stuff? The majority of the people who have heard Monsters think its slash and duff
Besides you no one has though its Robin

"you sound more like a Slash fan than you do a Robin, Bucket, Tommy, and Brain. "

This is by far the funniest thing I have ever read in the history of these forums. Do you even know who you are talking to?
I have always been outspoke against slash.  I trash him all the time for butchering these CD songs and him butchering the CD stuff live
You have to be trolling at this point.  I think its just time to ignore you

When I give my opinion that is just as valid as anybody else's is you don't tell others to move on after they give their opinions. How are their opinions more valid than mine?

Yes but when we give our opinion we don’t  drag it on for days like a dead horse saying the same thing . We get it, you think it’s robin, we think it’s slash. End of debate

But you could be wrong, and you and the majority always say it is Slash and beat that to a dead horse. The ones who say Slash beat the dead horse. Nobody calls them out on it. You just single me out. We still don't know for sure. So, the debate isn't over until we know. And you know why you gang up on me and single me out? It's because I don't like Slash and worship Slash. And because I don't act like Slash is my GOD.
