I Don't Care About You is one of the few punk covers GNR did well. I like their version.
Voted for Look At Your Game Girl but most of the remaining covers are bland. Ain't It Fun is the clear standout on the album, and Down On The Farm and Black Leather are alright.

I love the version of Human Being, I can see how it wouldn’t be everyone’s thing, but it’s recorded way better than the original Dolls version and apart from the last minute or so it kicks along nicely. The lyrics fit the band also.

IDCAY has the right energy to be on a punk covers album, but Ain't It Fun is probably their best cover overall. Slash's tone is perfect, the production is great, it's kind of the opposite of punk but it sounds awesome.
Human Being is good but it's too long, it really shouldn't have been almost 7 minutes. Hair Of The Dog is fine, but I don't like the ending on GNR's version and it's underwhelming for a Nazareth cover. If they'd played something like Razamanaz on the UYI tour it probably would've been awesome.
Raw Power is ok, it would've been a cool live song in 2016 if Axl had done backing vocals.
They should've stuck to the original idea and released TSI as an EP around '92.

I doubt Axl is even aware that Manny Charlton (the guy who first produced the AFD sessions before Mike Clinck) died a few days ago
Even then, what would he possibly sing at this stage? Hair of the Dog? Human Being is out of the question.....maybe Love Hurts, (with Mickey ofc) lol
Anyway, i seriosuly doubt the band is even aware that a legitmately GNR "connected" famous rock musician guy died, so there will be nothing in regards of his memory....

Is it GnRs version you don’t like or the song in general? Raw Power is a great tune from a great great album.

GNR's version sucks the life of the song
Original was great, but the Bowie mix of the album is shit!
Iggy's mix is much better

Yeah I prefer Ig’s mix. Ive bought a few versions of this album over the years, one was a double version released a few years ago with Iggys mix on one vinyl and Bowie’s on another. Bowie’s mix is too thin and lacking in power.

IDCAY sucked some major ass, easily the worst song GNR ever recorded
