Guns N' Roses - P.R.L. (2000)

One of the tracks that Guns N' Roses recorded during the early sessions for 'Chinese Democracy' was titled 'P.R.L.', and for some time no-one really knew what this stood for, with suggestions including Please respect...life? Peace, respect, love? People really low? Practice, rough, love? But perhaps in keeping with the Chinese theme of the eventual release, the general consensus is that it stands for Legend Red Panda backwards, and although this might stretch credulity a bit, fans have accepted this and used it to design covers featuring the animal, for an album entitled 'Legend Of The Red Panda'. I didn't really like any of them so have designed my own for this second volume of outtakes from the 'Chinese Democracy' sessions, and once again it's a mix of vocal takes and instrumentals, with 'Going Down' being sung by Tommy Stinson, and I've included 'Oh My God', from the 'End Of Days' soundtrack, as it was recorded during the same time period as the other tracks.

  1. Thanks for these. Hope we'll get a future GnR release that will live up to the original GnR legacy one day.
