AXL FIRES EVERYBODY! Guitarist Sara LeFevre (Vampire Squids From Hell) helps us go through one of the most storied and expensive albums ever. How many fads and trends that came and went during the fifteen years it took to record this end up on the finished album? Are the leaks better than the finished product? What happened to Brian May’s guitar solo? What really went on in Buckethead’s chicken coop? Why was Axl also re-recording “Appetite For Destruction” at the same time? Why did this take so long? Why did this cost so much? Is this really an Axl Rose solo album? What is a shackler? Which President Bush is Axl singing about? Who is more likely to finish their album first, Tool, The Kinks, or GnR? There’s a lot of ground to cover on this episode of Detours and Outliers.
