2020_Intensions Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Do we know for sure when he stopped contributing to writing? If his involvement ended around '98-'99 there's a chance any "new" ChiDem material that may be released didn't involve him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocknroll41 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Axl said in the 2008 chats that Paul was “on a lot more material.” I think Slash will be fine as long as he doesnt have to be in the same room with him, or record any solos that get layered “alongside” Paul solos like the SFTD situation.

He's all over these tracks we've listening too and played on the original versions of several older tracks. Think people people not to stop solely blaming Tobias for the split and consider the reality that he was actually a good song writer. If Gun's record anything from the Chinese Democracy sessions, it'll be something Tobias originally played on. So Jimmy is right, regardless of the cynical comments he gets.

Ant Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Even if you’re a fan of these leaks and Chi-Dem songs I’d hope you’d at least want them to record them fresh as a band. If the whole Frankenstein approach to music continues with the NITL it will be a travesty... not to mention a pebble drop in the music ocean in terms of lasting impact. ”nice work Slash... we did it... NITL is a massive success... here’s Paul’s tapes... you remember Paul... go figure something out with them.” Maybe we’d get some volcanic Slash rage-metal GNR... that could actually be cool Edited October 4, 2019 by Ant 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I'm not blaming him for anything, I just think there's no need for any larger amount of his fingerprints on the material to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megaguns1982 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Unfortunately I do think he will be on the new album, I also think that slash is way above adding parts to CD era tracks. The tour is one thing, but recording is a whole different beast and I think that is when the negative shit will begin. I just can't see Axl binning everything or anything that he did in the last 20 years, and I can't see slash having any interest in adding to it. Time will tell but it's possible slash will take his millions he made in the last 3 years and call it a day on gnr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Towelie Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Guns don't need to use outside songwriters, which is what Paul Huge started out as, along with West Arkeen and Del James (lol). The best GNR songs were either written by the entire band, Axl/Izzy, Axl/Slash or just Axl alone. Slash is an underrated songwriter, who I feel doesn't get his dues, as if somehow writing killer riffs didn't contribute massively to songs like SCOM, Locomotive, Coma etc. Not to mention his post-Guns tracks like Fall To Pieces, Serial Killer, Slither, Messages, Anastasia, which, in an alternate universe, could've been classic GNR tracks. Fuck Paul Huge. What does he have to his name? Back Off Bitch? Okay, he's a co-writer on some of the best CD songs, but still, he ain't fucking Slash, so if the big guy in the top hat says he should do one, Axl needs to fucking listen.

action Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 as much as anyone hates paul, he resembled closest to what you'd call a GNR member, during those shows. the others were just freaks. if can help write songs, I don't see no problem with his involvement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me the "Axl alone songs" November Rain and Estranged are as Axl/Slash songs as Coma and Locomotive are. I know Slash isn't credited and to some that's all that matters but im my opinion his guitar parts to those songs are elementery and as important as Axl's input. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the Estranged riff should have been instant co-credit! Also his pre-solo is literally the dolphins personified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finck2006 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 In 2012 I asked Axl about Paul and he said hes a family and probably he was not involved with GNR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I doubt he will be on it at all, but I'm sure there will be writing credits. He is pretty much the only person who has been on released material that has never done an interview. I'd fucking love to hear him on a podcast.

He is pretty much the only person who has been on released material that has never done an interview. I'd fucking love to hear him on a podcast. I agree with both points. Paul had a co write on Guns demo tape, it doesn't just start at UYI with his involvement. Would be great to hear an interview If I can coin a term, Id say that Paul passed the "Tommy Test." Tommy didnt like Bucket, Bumblefoot, DJ and he tested and pushed Brain initially. In whispers Tommy talks about people who had never been on a 'big rock record' (a reference to Paul) and that Pauls ideas were undermined, but eventually they all kind of matured and developed better ways of communicating - they needed to discuss why they agree or disagree on an idea. Jump to the CD credits and its clear that Pauls ideas were embraced by Tommy and co. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
