The Terrible Covers Thread!
The Joker:
Guns N' Roses versions of Sympathy for the Devil and Live and Let Die are fucking brutal. Even Slash hated Sympathy for the Devil. This is too bad because other than those, I like Guns N' Roses.
*edit: Slash hated their version of Sympathy for the Devil. He had too much respect for Keith Richards' playing to think he could do it as well.
I'm not saying Slash isn't good (he's very good), but even he recognized that he was no Keith Richards. In his autobiography, he specifically refers to Richards' guitar work on that song as "untouchable".

I agree with this statement but I don't understand why you are posting it in the "Terrible Covers" thread, dude.

@The Joker -
I was reading one time where Slash was in the studio with Keith Richards while he (Keef) was recording, and Slash said that he heard a great solo that he could play on the song, and Richards turned to him and went, "Look, I like you kid, but don't push your luck."

Zingoleb:
I played GNR's Knockin' on Heaven's Door for my father, because he's TOTALLY OBSESSED with Bob Dylan. His only comment was, "Why does he sound like he's in pain?"
