Guns N' Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine live 1986

[IVAN3DX]

i cant hear it :s

[trout77x]

You can tell this is old- the quick run that usually leads into to the last solo at 4:40 is just a simple arpeggio in this old version.

[MaxGauthierguitar]

@trout77x you can tell it's old - look at the damn quality of the recording !! lol that's right ! you can't ! XD

[dali775]

jajajaja que versión primitiva!!!!!

[kasokage]

they are always willing to reunion anytime. and this is where it happens. thanks for YOUTUBE !!

[eldind026]

3 Guys are in a bar.

One of them says: I have the longest arms in the world.

The other one says: I have the longest legs in the world.

The third guy says: I have the greatest guitar talent.

So they decide to go to the office of the guinness book of records.

The first guy comes out and says: Yes! I do have the longest arms.

The second guy comes out and says: Great! I do have the longest legs.

The third guy comes out angry and says:

WHO THE HELL IS SLASH?

[kaahpadilhaa]

me q replica velho

[hapobelle]

Can you "see" Axl's bum or am I having dirty thoughts?

[aa134368]

Lol is axl wearing a thong and ass chaps?!

[sirtop001]

0:47 Axl fuckin nice ass XD

[dudu90tm]

best :x

[slashsaulhudson123]

am i imagining? am i the only one who saw axl's ass on 0:41?

[houmanna]

i'm imagining and i'm really enjoying

[eviimiau]

I'm dead...

[JoSlaxl]

@eviimiau no

[eviimiau]

@JoSlaxl ¬¬'

[pinkpanther446]

I still say Axl's butt cheeks should have a mold made of them and put in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame !

[nebby1956]

its like lestening to an amateur cover band. but again, its so much better than the cover bands cause they made up this song and theyre playing it the best they can. im pretty sure slash didnt quite realize how bad that guitar is back than. :D

[GNRDisturbedSlash]

@nebby1956 ya he didnt realise it till he was trying to record AFD. then he got pissed tried to get a Mockingbird for free from the guy from kiss who had connections with the company. however he was pissed at GN'R so there was noway that was happening. then the producer found slash his hand made 1959 Les Paul sunburst replica. whyich he has used on all albums he has ever been reracorded on

[sambora113]

LOL @ Duffs ass-less chaps!!!

[XxPrIceLeSS]

You're all right. It really does sound weird when no one's screaming at the begining

[bncprado]

olha como um produtor muda uma banda...isso ae é a musica antes de ser produzida e gravada por um grande produtor.

[PBANDSNOW]

This is cool. Slash is still playing his BC Rich, he plays the intro through the verses, and none of them are great at the song yet!

[pezi583]

was this filmed with a potatoe?

[Samsinge]

@pezi583 This footage is pure gold. You dont realise where these guys were in the sunset music scene at this stage. Broke, malnourished, Fucked up, running from the law, bad rep, rape charges, an unsigned so called rock band that became GUNS N' ROSES. May God bless rock n roll......and please bring it back!

[sluv2600]

@Samsinge

Honestly this is the best version of Sweet Chile o Mine that I've ever heard. Everything from Slash's altered solo, to the slowed-down jangly beat, to the varied ending part (where do we go, where do we go). This is just great and you're absolutely correct, it's a historical archive. I almost want to cry when I see this video. This is pure history.

[ronnieforever123]

@pezi583 your stupid this is 1986

[guitarman856]

@ronnieforever123 yeah that pezi583 is STUPID! 1986!!!!!!!!!!!

[d0ct0rsweet]

@pezi583 no it was actually filmed with a carrot

[zrhinier]

I believe this was filmed with the first camcorder ever invented. I mean the actual prototype.. That being said, this was still great.

[hwarangkid]

hahaha SoccerBrazuca:) exactly the same reaction... really like crowd: "come on do something, now! ok now... hmm, now? .... no, you don't do anything...?" and then realising they where not born as the greatest rock band in history.. haha, slash unknown? strange, it doesn't totally fit him, but in a way it's so cool... whising I already lived back than and being one of their first fans and than seeing them grow...

[Samsinge]

@hwarangkid you lucky fuck. I wish i knew them and was a fan since day one. Read "watch you bleed" gunners book. Its really good. Did you ever like Poison and Motley Crue, etc???

[TheIronjackson]

YEAH  BC RICH......

[almerson]

86's the birth of Sweeet child o mine...i think



[Mussepiggkk]

So????-.-

[Ras137]

Slash playing Sweet Child O' Mine on something other than a Les Paul??

Blasphemy!

Though in reality the tone is pretty good.

[MrLaserprint]

@Ras137 he used to play bc rich all the time before afd

[Pacfanweb]

Axl couldn't sing this one worth a crap back then, either. Oh, and way to rock the chaps with your arse showing, like David Lee Roth.

[girogomez]

Slash toca una monckingbird

[MrThalesguitar]

cara legal d +,muito antigo 1 ano apos a banda se formar

vc viu q aundo começou a musica a qualidade do som era horrivel né

depois q slash comprou uma les paul foi outra coisa :)

[peterlv68]

i like how he plays the intro through the verses, sounds sick

[jodysoldman]

...and I thought "Ass-Less Chaps" was a made-up thing...

[ImWalersonDuarte]

jackson fodas

[shelbourne14]

Thank God Slash found a Les Paul

[WhoaJ30]

the difference is that he is playing the opening riff thru the verse, he didn't do that on the album or other live performances thereafter

[analkladd]

Slash was great then but now he is fucking amazing !!1 :'D

[daa808]

esta bien perron pero lastima que no se ve bien :)

[doeggu]

Very interesting to see that beginning of Slash. If you can clearly see his progress.

[ivofriul]

thanks for posting it!

[trucoteca28]

Slash with his BC Rich :O

[analkladd]

@trucoteca28 Yes, He played BC Rich then and he has jused BC Rich on the song Rocket Queen many years :D

[GoHabs13]

axls voice isn't completely fucked by ciggs in this vid.

[joebob701]

i like how he played the intro the entire time

[TommyHaze69]

Nice ass-less leather chaps Axl lol

[samdrury1994]

it's werid yet kinda cool hearing classic's like sweet child in there original form, GN'R!

[GNRmello77]

that string just shows that axl doesn't care what other people think at all :) and thats how i like it fuck everything i do my own thing!

[Rosesfan1]

@GNRmello77 Yeah, that is one of the reasons to respect him so much.

[Samsinge]

@Rosesfan1 Metallica and Gunners were blooming around the same time. Gunners a little later i think. James hetfield said in a recent interview that he respects him more than ever as he did what he wanted, wasn't influenced by cock rock, he did his thing and till today has done so. Never sold out. And till today he has always been the same AXL. Axl is a fuckwhit but a fuckn legend!

[losserelli666]

way to over use the intro slash lol .. well he did write that after all..

[los4menzos]

y'know, it's kinda annoying hearing slash play the riff through all the verses ;) haha

[91rexxar]

wau

[Rosesfan1]

Wow!! Amazing version of the song!! Axl is definitely wearing interesting pants hahahaha!!

[iafspiojkli]

@Rosesfan1 lol yup Leather chaps with a leather G string believe it or not. XD It's awesome. :D

[Rosesfan1]

@iafspiojkli Yeah. Leather G-string indeed.:lol: Many thanks to the gyu who broadcasted the video.XD God bless him.

[iafspiojkli]

@Rosesfan1 although it also kinda looks like a woman's chastity belt. lol just sayin....

[Rosesfan1]

@iafspiojkli It doesn't really matter what it looks like. It's crazy and it's incredibly sexy...

[kegger37]

what the hell are you all talking about? How the hell can you hear anything!!! I hear a 30 year old camera that was dropped into a puddle and left in the attic for 20 years and sounds like shit!

[maidenrulz73]

to turn back time

[galzamir]

i am shoked tanks!!! this it's the version before they got famous  and slash don't even grab him self on what he playing on this song nice!!!! LOL graet!!!!

[Vinterbroeren]

WOW! Slash is using a B.C Rich guitar

[lugiomay]

Ahahahah during the verse slash used to play the intro xD

[dudu90tm]

@lugiomay which sounds good :D

[nicomors]

What a sound from his guitar during the intro! *__*

[slaxlgnr]

Interesting that Slash plays the intro through the verses...

Dang this stuff is so rough but sounds so good!

[iwanttoholdyourbigkn]

Axel getting in touch with his feminine side.

[1194elias]

That was bad ass!

[johnblitz01]

shit... 0:42 that's what i call an ass...

[theStiggler]

BC Rich Warlock FTW!

[thatsitfuckit]

Slash was prob the best thing to happen in Guns N' Roses at this time. Still he was playing like a badass and better then the other guitar players at that time

[MiszzMiszz]

'he was wearing thongs because he had hard childhood' please guys, come on! maybe he just LIKE IT! anyway... ITS FUCKING FUNNY :P

[bugio22]

He was wearing a thong to shock people.

[SoccerBrazuca]

first time i see slash playing the intro guitar and nobody screaming

[stromer24]

@SoccerBrazuca wow. it does sound odd when no one is screaming.

[pears15]

wtf with axl's outfit?

[kendant]

@Rockdude124 i dont speak english men :S Im from Argentina

[kendant]

@Rockdude124 Men Slash ALWAYS says his first guitar WASNT a gibson les paul.. Its the guitar he use to play "You Could Be Mine" Anyway, his first les pauls WASNT a Gibson Model.

[joey6733]

axl es marico mira ese hilo dental vale

[AkibA82]

Pre Slash-Les Paul era.

[IchigoKilledMario]

this mustve been fromt their short lived glam faze

[RichieMDer]

I new Axl was camp with his tantrums. He's wearing a fuckijng g-string and gayboy chaps... Holy shit...!

[vdm8773]

sigue el solo del principo

[Chamitas]

wtf is axl wearing.....

[mpc3po]

@Chamitas

yeah really.... i'm sure he got that shit from David Lee Roth--he was wearing all that spandex and chaps in all his videos in '86

[Coldacre]

great video! GNR pre-heroin.

[warzoneswe]

@Coldacre: Not Pre-Heroin! That period didn´t exist under Gnr-era...

[IchigoKilledMario]

u can tell this song wasnt done he kept playing the intro thru the entire song except in the fillers n in the chorus still it was amazing

[alcoyot]

This sounds great. Kind of wierd to see slash without the gibson. I def agree this was axl's prime. lol at the assless pants.

[TettoNxp]

[Crazelord91]

[lucasvcm]

wow! this time, anyone got crazy lol, they never thought that this song was going to be an historic rock song

[rodef]

slash banalized the riff in this video... thankfully a producer came and reorganized the song.

[FuckinMetal3694]

[GoinDownToJunkieTown]

his hair is fucking lethal here, lol, what a mad man , he was obviously on alot of booze, coke n gear to get up stage with hair like that. how he was able to perform so pitch-perfect when he was skagged out has always been a mystery to me

[treborillusion]

I wanna cover this version LMAO....

Why has this not been done.

Wow!

It's not like I don't hear the other Album Version a lot....

[charlene3399]

[slashpassion]

@juniorsurfer160894 Slash have more than 300 guitars, i saw him with a doubleneck sg, a b.c. rich mockingbird, an ES-335, a firebird, and many others lol

[Renatograf]

[israelrock321]

[raiders4lifeblake]

Axl looks like the lion from the wizard of oz. I'm glad he changed his hair style.

[SophieRenae]

I think it's sexy, but I am from the glam era! Though, GnR was definitely not glam!!

[pinkpanther446]

I just want to pinch those cheeks !

[SophieRenae]

Man alive!! Pinkpanther, what I could do with those!! LOL!!! I'll be dreaming about this tonight... I hope!!!

[pinkpanther446]

Man alive is right SophieRenae- When I 1st saw this I kept playing it over a few times to make sure I saw what I saw and then I couldn't take my eyes off those handsome cheeks !

[guth4n17]

it sounds cool when slash just continues polaying the intro riff in the verse :D

[Themanwhosoldtehewor]

god i like to slap on those butts :D

[ericknvp]

OOOOOO

BEST

[soyrobin2001]

Axl's voice was amazing. Too bad he didn't sing like that on the use your illusion tour.

[MadeInHeaven0]

yeah, you are rigth, the axl voice in tour is like a shit

[jinishima]

@soyrobin2001 exactly. he sounded great here. it would have been awesome with more videos.

[vdbdg]

I read in Slash's book or somewhere that the "where do we go" lyrics were only added at the Appetite recordings which took place after this I guess, upon a suggestion from Tom Zutaut. Seems like they were always there

[MrCrashnow]

Me cago en los que dicen que GNR es mierda.

GRANDE GUNS

[POCHADO14]

hahah cool

[Bobbydickheaded]

wow, haha, nobody even heard of this song there, that blows my mind. axl looks just like he did in the welcome to the jungle video, he changed his look after that video

[gabrielelcapo09]

es lomas  guns and roses fue y siempre ba a segir siendo la banda mas rebelde de todo el fucilanime planeta

[williamgatesenson]

whoa no les paul!

[Schuey4ever]

ah crap, buttless chaps! could have done without seeing that

[1GNRslash]

Guns N Roses es el mejor grupo del mundo.

[luvgory]

its very different 4m the orignal version no 1st solo , he plays the intro 4 a long time and of course the 3 solo but it was a gr8 pr4mence

[badsarasota69]

or pre-appitite

[kalikat61]

Poor Steven,Duff and Izzy having to look at Axl's white ass in the thong!

[karting34]

unbelievable how much they improved in only two years

[09debono09]

kinda hard to take axl in a thong

[Sebhitax350]

Esto es una reliquia compadre... SLASH no usa una Les Paul... BKN!

[fhanickel]

essa calça ai condena o axl......kkkkkk

axl fuck'n roses!!!!

[Berqy123]

haha No wonder Slash hates this song.... He use to play the riff throughout the whole song... I'd hate it too! hahaha

[MrArneandre]

wtf! lol! is axl wearing a gstring? and pants with no cronch....? god thats bad!!! lucky the music is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

[andoverswanage]

wow keeps the intro goin through out the song i bet slash was bored
