Posting isolated tracks has become a booming Internet business of late, playing to our innate human desire to take the things we love and tear them to pieces. From these we have learned that The Beatles could really sing and all that bouncing around stage makes Taylor Swift sing just okay; today we have another bias confirmed in the form of Courtney Love’s isolated guitar and vocal tracks. Recorded during a 2010 show at New York club Don Hill’s by a man named J.M. Ladd, the band’s rendition of “Celebrity Skin” sounds… well, not like this in its full-audio form. But as Death And Taxes points out, singling out Love’s, let’s say, aloof approach to playing her out-of-tune guitar resembles one of those mock YouTube “shreds” videos.

Nevertheless, Ladd insists it’s genuine. “To address the most obvious, inevitable question that I will be asked…this is not fake. Whether you think she’s the worst or this just makes her all the more ‘punk rock’ is for you to decide,” Ladd writes in his description. “I’m merely presenting the facts as they are. Make of them what you will.” Probably don’t make them into a CD for anyone, however.

I thought it was one of those piss takes like the evh one at first , well it is a piss take if you paid money to be there .

[Nickdfresh]

I would say it's actually better than I would have expected :)

[vandeleur]

So you had low low expectations :)

[FORD]

It's a goddamn shame that a Rickenbacker has to be wasted on that useless cunt. And we all know whose money paid for it.

Let's just say, no wonder why Kurt shot himself!

Cuntney's not the only overrated guitarist.

Sad thing is, that fake solo probably sounds better than anything Eddie actually played on the Van Hagar Velveetapalooza 2004 tour

For a few brief moments I was almost convinced she was actually trying to play music on that guitar instead of just pretending to play it and using it as a prop.

Someone once told me that Courtney Love was the female Johnny Thunders. Rarely have I laughed so hard......

Shit, even when Johnny was completely smacked out of his mind, he could still play his guitar....

All you need is a little compression and reverb and some spin and... BAM platinum album!

At least you don't need to listen to a keyboard solo on that version...
