Guns N' Roses' Stones covers

Anyone like the covers Guns N' Roses did of Jumpin' Jack Flash and Sympathy for the Devil?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmN2weuTJ1c Jumpin Jack Flash electric 1990 Demo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbC2CzG2QrM&feature=related Jumpin Jack Flash 1990 Acoustic

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQn1k9WPeLM Sympathy for the Devil, 1994.

Ironically it was their recording of Sympathy that turned out to be the break up of the band, or led to it.

Also, in the summer of 1996, while the Stones were recording Bridges to Babylon, Slash recalls he sat in on one of their sessions and had dinner with Keith. He told Keith all that was on his mind about the state of GN'R and his relationship with Axl. Keith advised him, "There's one thing you never do--You never leave." Unfortunately, Slash didn't take Keith's advise and quit Guns N' Roses in October 1996.

Not a big fan of those covers, but I do like listening to Slash talk about the Stones.  This is the cover they do best, DF: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7h1NouJ2do

I'm not a fan of GnR's Stones covers. IMO, they don't hold a candle to the originals.

Going by this, Axl Rose will not play with Slash.

They played Waiting on a friend last night. Duff McKagan played a few songs with them; first time since '93.
