I just bought this one today for a great value at under $10 bucks. So to all you complainers who are giving this album one star because you can't copy it, go out and work for two hours at a job and then you can buy the CD. Is ten dollars really that much money for a CD you are going to listen to over and over again? Anyways, about the album itself. All the songs are better than average, with around half or so being extremely good to great. Scott's voice fits the music nicely and Slash sounds great on lead (although I expected some longer and more memorable solos from the man who gave us the "November Rain" trio of great rock solos). If you like rock music, "Velvet Revolver," might once again make you a believer that good rock music will live as long as this band stays together. Hopefully for many rockin' years to come!
