This is a bit of obscure song that everyone seems to have an opinion of who is actually playing and singing the song. I bought the vinyl 12 while I was visiting a relative in LA around the time Guns and Roses had just hit the charts hugely with “Welcome” after the album being out a good 6 months unnoticed. The story I remember was that Vince Niel, Axl Rose, Tommy Lee, Slash and a bunch of other LA sunset glam rockers showed up at a studio at the peak of a week long binge of cokin’ and drinking and pulled a bunch of street gang members in to lay down some vocals on a track they created on the way to the studio.
That is what “I” remember finding after some research after I bought the album.
The album itself back cover tells the ‘alleged story" of how it all came together but I have read that the story is bullshit.
Does anyone have any other facts on this other that what I have found.
Just tonight I did find this link but could it actually be the same people playing? No way
damn, i found more tonight making this post then ever before ….also found this
“To set the record straight: This track was really by a group called "London a/k/a DPriest”. True these guys rapped the verses under hire by London, but this was not their record. Atlantic pulled it off the market after discovering the fraud. Signed by Sean Lewis, a/k/a guitarist for London who played the lead guitar track on this cut!“
coffman and coffman, some sleazy lawyers the crue talked into financing a promotional single they actually threw into the audience at a show on sunset, and i actually had one once, then it got stolen along with about 30 other rare singles. the crue were one of the best self promoters rock had seen in a long time. even though they claimed to be innovators of self promotion i am sure many other bands through time have matched their enthusiasm. in fact i can remember reading some cool shit about what the doors used to do on sunset.
