Rayno

ROFL. Made my day. Thank you.

The funniest part: "Ray Thomas Baker is supposed to be just kind of a psycho. I am really looking forward to meeting him just because of that."

Well, again - you're right. It's an assumption but based on facts. I think there's a picture of The Project with Izzy on vocals (which speaks volumes) in Slash's book with a description going like "working on a song called Snafu". This song later appeared on one of Izzy's records, too. I am too lazy to check but I also think there are mentions in Duff's or Slash's biography (and also in some interviews) that Izzy came in the camp with songs/song ideas/riffs. Vicky Hamilton, Matt Sorum, Duff, Slash and others repeatedly stated Izzy was a great songstarter that was used to come to a rehearsal al

Well, that's technically true but at the same time we know Izzy came to the Project camp with riffs/songs ideas (most of them Scott refused later as something sounding too like Bad Conpany. VR guys stated this repeatedly plus we know that's how Izz is usually functioning - he comes in with ideas. He's the song starter and always was.

I think Izzy just plays there and has no writing credit. On the other hand he has no writing credit on Contraband and we all know he wrote Do It For The Kids riff.

Are they?

Why in bold?

I guess most of you remember the pre-The Project/VR era of Camp Freddy. Duff, Slash and Matt (among others) played together more than once and some really cool videos are still up on youtube. I think Izzy joined them at least once as there's the Jumpin' Jack Flash video of all of them playin together, there's the Mr. Brownstone audio (there used to be a video floating around too but for some reason it disappeared and now only the audio is available). And I know for sure Izzy had one more spot with the actress Gina Gershon, they did Ring Of Fire together. There are some pics from this particula

I know how you meant it but this is (unintenionally) SO funny and totally contradictory to what we've been experiencing for last 4 years. :-))))

Please do me a favor and try to define what "b grade musician" means. Thank you.

And the last one will be Mr. Izzy Stradlin. Haha!

Don't forget Nuno:

Are you guys serious?

Cool, thanks. But I mean something different. I remember reading something somewhere Marc actually plays on the Pressure Drop EP and is not credited because The Black Crowe didn't like the idea of their new arrival being credited on someone else's record? Or maybe Jimmy Ashhurst mentioned it in some video? Mark's long time friend and collaborator Craig Ross is credited though. EDIT: Oh, they even discuss it in the podcast (around 24:40 min.). Case closed.

Interesting, gonna take a listen. I remember Mark and Izzy were working on something together prior to JuJu Hounds? Or am I wrong?
