November 3, 2008, 16 years ago
According to Wikipedia, QUEEN guitarist Brian May recorded the lead guitar parts for the leaked GUNS N' ROSES song 'Catcher N' The Rye' in 1999. The song is confirmed to appear on Chinese Democracy, but it's unknown if May's parts will be on the song if when is officially released. Apparently they aren't according to a Brianmay.com visitor who has seen the sleeve notes from Chinese Democracy.
May responds: "Well, it is a shame, perhaps ... I did put quite a lot of work in, and was proud of it. But I could understand if Axl wants to have an album which reflects the work of the members of the band as it is, right now."
