I'm assuming this is refering to recent work since I don't really remember her being on any old stuff... but I could be wrong, anyone know? Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD...

Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: kyrie on December 24, 2006, 12:49:35 PM According to the article (which had all of two lines about her) she's also worked with Tool.

Will There Be A Harp? Post by: Casey Shelton on December 24, 2006, 12:59:06 PM They had 36 (??) songs at various stages of completion. Harp could be on material for the 2nd or 3rd cd. Whatever, I trust Axl's artistic flavor so whatever he puts in there it will be mindblowing.
Thanks for the info. Wait, the harp could be part of an intro to a song. That would make sense. Right?? Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: Voodoochild on December 24, 2006, 01:03:34 PM Hahaha, I love how some of you overreact..
It's just a harp. I'm sure it's gonna be in one of those orchestrated songs (we know about this for quite some time) with violins, cellos and other stuff aswell. What's the big deal? Edited: here's the quote: Patti Hood Her r?sum? is incredibly diverse?session work with members of Tool, Guns N? Roses, the Church?but it was Harpo Marx who made the biggest impact. On her website, she reveals she took up the instrument when he appeared to her in a dream. Source: http://www.harpmagazine.com/articles/detail.cfm?article_id=4948&SearchWord=Patti%20Hood As far as I know, there's no mention of Chinese Democracy itself. Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: Mr. Nik™ on December 24, 2006, 01:10:58 PM btw, there is the article (Patti Hood reference is at the end)
http://harpmagazine.com/articles/detail.cfm?article_id=4948&SearchWord=Patti%20Hood it says "session work with members of" it could mean anything EDIT and the explanation is on her website: Quote 1996 http://www.pattihood.net/html/resume.htmlPerformed on three songs on Zoo/Volcano Records LUSK album, Free Mars with former and current members of Tool and Guns 'N Roses. she played with Pitman!!

What wrong with a harp? ??? It's a stringed instrument like a guitar. Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: Robman? on December 24, 2006, 03:09:14 PM its sounds cool, it would be interesting to hear

A harp almost sound unremarkable... does have a kind of chinese steriotypical sound to it IMHO Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp?

Will There Be A Harp? Post by: polluxlm on December 25, 2006, 10:40:10 AM Could Pitman have a harp solo up his sleeve for us....?
:drool: Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: dizzy68 on December 25, 2006, 10:42:12 AM The Harp is a cool instrument. Sometimes it's only used briefly in a song. Maybe one or two seconds as an intro. I'm sure that the way it was used it will be artistic and emphasize the song a bit. Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: Nytunz on December 25, 2006, 11:05:02 AM You can hear Patti Hood on Chris Pittman and former Tool Bassist Paul d`amour band Lusk, on songs like Doctor, Mindray and My Good Fishwife.
Danny Carey is also playing drums on some songs. So i guess thats her relationship to Tool members. Ive said it before, and will say it again! Im sure Chris Pitman has been the source to alot of great elements to the record. So dont underrate him. And, its Pitman, NOT Pittman! haha marry Xmas Nytz Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: Edrose on December 25, 2006, 01:18:24 PM You can hear Patti Hood on Chris Pittman...... ......And, its Pitman, NOT Pittman! you put both spellings in the same post :hihi: im not excepting either spellings till the man issues a letter to the fans on gunsnroses.com until then im free to spell his name "kpitman" (silent k) Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD...

Post by: Will on December 26, 2006, 06:19:42 PM That would be really cool. I listen to a celtic artist from my region in France (Brittany): Alan Stivell, and some of his stuff is really cool. I saw him live once, it's quite impressive to see a show based on that instrument. It would be a nice addition I think.

Post by: dizzy68 on December 28, 2006, 01:04:25 PM Nothing weird about a harp unless you are talking about Death metal music or even grunge. Guns is a Rock band where just about anything goes depending on the song. Aerosmith is another band where you might occasionally hear different kinds of instruments. It's really no big deal.

2007 Presently recording two CD's. Appearing on the soon to be released Guns ?N Roses album ?Chinese Democracy? with Axl Rose. EDIT: 1996 Performed on three songs on Zoo/Volcano Records LUSK album, "Free Mars" with former and current members of Tool and Guns 'N Roses. 1997 Toured for three months with LUSK. --- So she toured with LUSK back in the days.. would be cool to see hear on a GNR stage : ok: Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD...

Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: babydolls on November 26, 2007, 06:30:07 AM I used to play the harp - played for fours years or so. it wasnt as hard as i thought it would be to learn - but maybe because I learned the piano from an early age and the harp strings are strung in the same order as piano keys. Got bored with it after one too many recitals and scottish weddings and it wasnt exactly easy to lug around... changed to guitar instead! I did pick out parts of November rain on it for a while though, and the piano melody sounded really nice on the harp... In the right places, the harp can sound great, and there is certainly room for it in different genres of music.

Post by: russtcb on November 26, 2007, 06:56:42 AM http://www.pattihood.net/html/resume.html Patti's Biography I liked this bit: 2007 Appearing on the soon to be released Guns ?N Roses album ?Chinese Democracy? with Axl Rose. I thought that was a tad redundant. If you're on a GNR album then we already know you're appearing with Axl Rose. Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: gnrjanus on November 26, 2007, 07:38:49 AM She's on This I love.
a cd.com member mailed her about it, she was in a band touring with Lusk(band with Chris on vocals if I'm corect) they did a tour together, and Chris asked her to join on a session and she did harp on this i love, the email is on cd.com Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD...

How did you find out about me? I'm wondering how you knew about my playing with Axl. Please let me know. To answer your questions, I did a tour with The Church last year (we played at The Belly Up), I toured with a band called Lusk (we played at The Casbah). The lead singer in Lusk is Axl's keyboard player. Right now I'm working with a band called Stiky Side Up featuring Brad Hunt. I actually didn't meet Axl until well after I did the session. I'm on a song called "This I Love". It is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard. Unfortunately, I have no idea when the album will be released. Thank you so much for your interest in my work. Take care and Happy Holidays, Patti Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: Voodoochild on November 26, 2007, 08:14:55 AM Maybe it's overanalysing, but if she updated this tidbit is because band's management (or lawyer) contacted her to ask (or just inform) that her work will indeed be used on the release. That may be an indication of activity behind the scene to a real release...
Anyways, thanks for the info about the email and the update, guys. :) Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD... Will There Be A Harp? Post by: ppbebe on November 26, 2007, 09:13:55 AM voodoo, I guess it's natural to think that way.

Quote Before anyone gets excited this film was released in 1998 and the song didn't feature on it! And whilst I appreciate it is old it's never been publicly known until recently. But here are the two articles on it: http://www.sp1at.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=425 Guns n Roses were offered a soundtrack spot Sp1at.com can exclusively reveal that the soundtrack for the Robin Williams film "What Dreams May Come" was meant to feature the as yet unheard Guns n Roses song "This I Love". Last week, in a Sp1at interview Dave Dominguez revealed that during his time working with the band the song was intended for a "Robin Williams film" but he did not give any further details. Sp1at's intrepid reporters followed this up and found out that this was the case. Sp1at contacted the office of Dawn Soler, the musical supervisor for the film, and she confirmed that this indeed was "true". Unfortunately for Guns fans the film got its cinematic release in 1998 and did not feature music from the band. The song "This I Love" which Axl Rose described in 1994 as the "hardest" song he's written has yet to see the light of day. Although Howard Karp, who worked on the song in 2000, has told Sp1at in the past that it is a "simple piano track". In the 7 years that have passed since the release of "What Dreams May Come" Guns n Roses have released only one new studio track, "Oh My God", which featured on the soundtrack of the film "End of Days". http://www.sp1at.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=429 Dawn Soler talks about the GnR song "This I Love" Dawn Soler, the musical supervisor for the film "What Dreams May Come" has been speaking exclusively to Sp1at about working with Guns n Roses's Axl Rose. When asked whether she could recollect any of the song that she probably hasn't heard for around 7 years she unfortunately said "Oh boy that was a long time ago", she was also unsure how the oppourtunity to work with Axl came along in the first place. However, she assure me that Axl "was really into the film" and rather interestingly suggested that he "wrote the song for it". This contradicts an interview from 1994 where Axl said he had already written the song, which many fans speculated was about Dylan, the son of Axl's one time partner, Stephanie Seymour. However the film did not make the final cut despite Dawn's fondness of the Guns n Roses track, the reason she gave Sp1at was that "the director was a pill and didn't get how cool it would be". If any Guns n Roses fans feel the need to send hate-mail to that director then I believe his name is Vincent Ward and he lives in New Zealand.* The new Guns n Roses album "Chinese Democracy" is currently rumoured for release between April and July depending on which reports you choose to believe. Whether the song "This I Love" will ever be released is unsure and for that we have Mr. Ward to blame. *Sp1at feels the need to point out that it doesn't condone people sending hate-mail to idiot directors* http://www.heretodaygonetohell.com/board/index.php?topic=18736.msg319133#msg319133 Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD...

Title: Re: This I Love Post by: Axl4Prez2004 on November 27, 2007, 08:25:46 PM It's a song about his favorite pillow. The ballad My Favorite Pillow is good, yes.....but My Second Favorite Pillow "a story of jealousy," and My Least Favorite Pillow "an angry song of anger," well, they blow the original out of the water! I have wondered the same thing as Younggunner. The '02 intro before November Rain live was fucking magic. I really hope that's a part of something to be heard on a GNR album. :peace: Title: Re: This I Love Post by: gunns1 on November 28, 2007, 07:07:44 AM This I love is a ballad!!!!! Holy Fuck!!!!!!!

That song has definitely been the song I want to hear for whatever reason. It just, to me, seems like it could be one of the greatest GNR songs ever. I don't know why exactly, seeing as we have no clue as to what its about or how it sounds, but something about it gives me high expectations. Title: Re: *POSSIBLE* *MINOR* Tidbit about CD...

She's very very nice!
Hello Ulises! Argentina....amazing. Your English is great. I don't want to say too much about the song. I will say it's very special. I think everyone may have a different opinion of Axl but to me, he is wonderful. I think I should wait until the album is released to say anything. I think the album is close to being finished. I did the session about 2 and a half years ago. Axl was not present at the session. I do like Guns. Axl puts on an amazing show and is quite a performer. But you have probably seen him live and know this. Out of respect for Axl, I really don't want to say much more at this time. Take care!
