According to a reviewer on Amazon this is the track listing:

Tracks
1 Anything Goes-Hollywood Rose
2 Welcome To The Jungle-Gilby Clarke, Tracii Guns & Kevin Dubrow (Quiet Riot)
3 No More Mr.Nice Guy-Slash & Roger Daltrey (The Who)
4 Sex Action-L.A. Guns
5 Sweet Child OMine-Gilby Clarke
6 Killing Time-Hollywood Rose
7 Elected-Duff Mckagan, Matt Sorum, Steve Jones (Sex Pistols) & Billy Duffy (The Cult)
8 My Michelle-L.A. Guns
9 It's So Easy-Tracii Guns, Gilby Clarke & Fred Coury (Cinderella)
10 Last Cigarette-Hollywood Rose Feat. Teddy Zigzag (SlashS Snakepit)
11 You're Crazy-Gilby Clarke, Tracii Guns & Stevie Ranchelle (Tuff)
12 Nice Boys-Guns N' Roses (Rare Track - Original Lineup: Axl, Slash, Duff, Izzy & Steven)
13 Pour Some Sugar On Me-L.A.Guns
14 Rocker-Hollywood Rose
15 Mr. Brownstone-Bang Tango Feat Tracii Guns & Gilby Clarke
16 Toys In The Attic-Tracii Guns & Stephen Pearcy (Ratt)
17 Jailbreak-Hollywood Rose Feat Mick Taylor (Rolling Stones)
18 Used To Love Her-Gilby Clarke, Tracii Guns & John Corabi (Motley Crue)
19 Gypsy-Slash & Tommy Shaw (Styx)
20 Wanted Dead Or Alive-L.A.Guns
21 Patience-Gilby Clarke, Tracii Guns & John Corabi (Motley Crue)
22 Don't Cry-Spike (Quireboys), Tracii Guns & Gilby Clarke
23 Shadow Of Your Love-Hollywood Rose
24 Lay It Down-Stephen Pearcy (Ratt) & Tracii Guns

There's a couple decent gems in there but a bunch of shit too. I think all these Hollywood Rose tracks can be had on the Hollywood Rose remastered demos that came a out a couple years ago.

After reading Slash's book, I would blow a horse to have both of these:
- the album GNR minus Axl wrote after Illusions and before they all quit/were fired
- a DVD of the footage that was shot during the recording and touring for Illusions.
Neither will see the light of day.

old G'n'R I can handle, The Spagetthi Incident holds a special place in my heart, hearing G'n'R try to mimic Charlie Harper is kind of funny. Otherwise Axl should hang himself

I like the Spaghetti Incident because it reminds me of high school. But in retrospect it is a far great career low point than Chinese Democracy.

This comp described here is just horrendous. Is Gilby Clarke really still trying to make a living off the fact that he was a hired gun for live shows for about 2 years?

Ya I have this comp and it is garbage. There are one or two songs on there that are ok, but fuck this mess as a whole.

BKT.

Can't be worse than any other GNR release.

Fucking gay. Fuck hair metal. Where's the Harvey Pekar thread? And, for what it's worth, Guns and Roses were nothing but a Gun Club/Joneses/Hanoi Rocks pull.

Whilst I'm certainly in no way,shape,or form a fan of G'N'R,the Gun Club reference I can't support,unless on a stretch of spandex that'll never fit...But,nice to see that someone remembers them...I'm not a huge fan,by no means,but I like what I like...And,I don't like G'N'R,whatsoever...Nope.

You're kidding me? Pierce wrote that look. The sound? See the list above.
