Episode 61: GnR: Use Your Illusion -- Court's Delusion -- What if Use Your Illusion Had Been One Great Album?

  • Summary

  • Listeners to the podcast know that Court was a massive fan of early GnR and Appetite for Destruction.  However, when Use Your Illusion 1 and 2 were released, young Dr. Lewis had an epic meltdown and vowed never to listen to those albums again.  His expectations were so high that those albums were a massive letdown, and one that sticks in Court's craw even today.  The mere mention of those albums sends Court into an epic tirade of profanity, rants about Yoko Ono, and the imbibing of adult beverages to numb the pain of Axl's betrayal.  Finally, after 30-plus years, Court decided it was time to come to grips with his feelings, recline on the leather couch of rock and roll psychology, and drill deep into his psyche to determine why these albums evoke such strong feelings all these years later.  Matt and Court construct the album that should-have-been, a single, two-record Use Your Illusion featuring only the songs that should have comprised that release back in 1991.  This is going to be a fun one folks, so let us know what you think on the RAMP Facebook page!
