CAFC Nick Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Just picked up the Red Hand cover at a used record store in LA today...for $5! Totally shocked to see it. The new artwork is both cool and weird. There's an alien rape painting for Shackler's Revenge. Still like the bike cover and the pics of the band in the original release...but it's cool to have the correct lyrics and a few additional liner notes from Axl.What's interesting is that the back says Copyright 2008-2009Pics of GTFO.

axlsalinger Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Is this a booklet with the spelling mistakes corrected? That's crazy stuff. Guess they were serious about re-issueing CD at one point or putting out alternate covers (even though it never actually did happen). Must've made some promo copies (or is there a warehouse full of these somewhere, lol.)Guess the store didn't know what they had, selling it for $4.99.

It can't be some elaborate fake. Perhaps a release from another country other than US/UK??? Surely not - still would have seen it on here at some point.

Guest NewGNRnOldGNR Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) What a find! $5? Complete luck. I've never been fortunate enough to come across a GN'R rarity in any music shop I've been in (largely because there's a severe lack of obscure music stores in or around my locality). The most alternative I suppose GN'R related product I've ever come across is Loaded's "Sick". Edited February 24, 2011 by NewGNRnOldGNR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scumcat Esq. Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Chinese democracy just got a whole lot cooler. Awesome to see this shit. Clearly something went massively wrong on release.I wish they made it widely available.I just don't understand why it ended like this.I mean it's not some unknown band, it's GN'R. Why the release was totally fucked up? It's beyond my understanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's beyond my understanding. well its like what axl was talking about with his lawsuit against azoff, and the fact he mentioned he received almost no support from geffen, all they probably wanted was to get the album out and try to get him to have a reunion but we all know thats not gonna happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
