STP in their day were pretty darn good. Velvet Revolver, to me, was pretty over ratted. Sure their songs weren't bad. But that's just it ...to me they were just "not bad". I really didn't see them lasting. More hype than actual real good out put.

Scott is supposedly off the substances and has cleaned up. ...Er.. didn't we see that like, twelve times before ...then he's back in re-hab all strung out. That's kinda been the cycle for the past ten years or more with them.

Don Was, such a great Producer. A fantastic ear with a knack for what the artist wants. As well he adds his own little touch to it all. I do not think anyone is better. Don Was's recordings just have a certain "quality" to their sound. As well the albums that he produces just runs that special way and are not matched by other producers today.

I know many here think he is bullocks, but I gotta say, to me he is on a level that the others just can't reach. Many feel he is too much a "Yes Man" when it comes to him working with The Stones. But listen to Voodoo, BTB, and ABB. All are "fine" albums. The proof is in the pudding.
