Don't remember a live album from Izzy in 1993 so that could be wrong.
Stradlin (known as Jeffrey Isbel to his attorney) wrote a few excellent songs, Patience, Dust'n'Bones, 14 years...or should I say co-wrote because like many sidemen, once he left the shadow of the greats he couldn't write anything else of interests to save his life...
You are seriously the first person that I've heard of that doesn't like it. Again, I haven't heard it so I really can't comment. I've just heard from a variety of different people that its excellent, and I remember because I'm always so surprised.Quote

You're joking right? I made the mistake of buying several of his solo albums and apart from the first one that's semi-decent, the rest is useless, as in songs with no hook, no melody, no lyrics of interest, almost as bad as Bill's solo stuff! Gilby Clarke on the other hand packed his first solo album with a lot of a good stuff.

In G&R he was probably as laidback but he was surrounded by a bunch of workaholics (Slash mainly) who would rework and embellish his demos till they became great songs.
Axl Rose once said to RS (in 1992) that asking Izzy to work on his own songs was like pulling teeth...
And acc. to Mike Clink all Izzy's parts on AFD are first takes! Now you get the guy?

In many ways Izzy was GnR's Keith or perhaps Ronnie.

Much better songwriter and singer than Ronnie ! If GnR had made an album in 94 or 95 with some of tis songs from the excellent "Pawnshop Guitars" people would have been ranting and raving. I think this is one of the most overlooked rock albums ever. Anyone who likes a good heavy stonesy groove should check it out.
