It's
another Bonus Song Thursday! Bill amd Brian take a weekly break
from going in depth and overlong on a full album to instead focus
on a single song. On Monday, podcaster and DJ Ralph Sutton gave us
some great analysis on what should have been an Axl Rose solo album
instead of the first Guns'n'Roses album in 17 years, Chinese
Democracy. In this episode, Bill and Brian tackle a track from that
album: "Street of Dreams." Featuring a whole new band (including
one of our favorites, Tommy Stinson), this new version of GnR left
a little to be desired... We talk about that, and the state of the
music industry (c. 2008) that thought Chinese Democracy was going
to be a hit, as we break down this single track!
