Former Guns N' Roses guitarist Gilby Clarke has recorded a new cover of the late, great Johnny Thunders' Heartbreakers tune, “Born To Lose.” Blabbermouth reported that Clarke enlisted the help of bassist EJ Curse and drummer Troy Patrick Farrell for the track. Clarke's latest solo album, titled The Gospel Truth, is set for release later this year.
Gilby Clarke told us that no matter what, he'll always be old school when it comes to his listening tastes: “Maybe I'm narrow-minded, I don't know — but to me it just seems that that music had so much more soul and their experimentation, it just really went somewhere. I hear the slop on the records and I love it. I love the mistakes, I love hearing human beings sitting in a room and playing together, and, like, you can hear that on those records. And, on these records today it just sounds the same and there's just a way of doing it and everybody just follows it.”
