If you Watch one of the Making F***ING Videos  (Estranged I think)  Between takes Slash is playing aroung on  a 12 string, and AXl starts whistling over what he is playing.  

The guitar part sound very similar to Fall to Pieces off of Contraband.

Thoughts???

I thought that was "Back And Forth Again" (from Snakepit)?  Havent heard it, so I dont know...I just remember people on here saying that.

Dont know, but Slash has spoken about coming up with the riff and presenting it to Scott, which leads me to believe it was done recently.  However its possible that Slash came up with it earlier and forgot about it.

I watched it last night and the riff you are talking about DOES sound very familiar, but i will need to hear FTP in my stereo before i can say that. BUT... the piece that people here thought was "This I Love" is not that piece. It comes a bit later when Axl is talking about Dylan and it is a piano piece and it is really beautiful.

in there you can find a link to d/l a mp3 where someone has been edited those versions together for better comparing! its an interesting issue IF "Fall to Pieces" really would be coming from the GN'R "Making of Estranged"-era!

Slash is not ripping of Axl here anyways.  Its Slash's song that he brought forward so he can do what he wants with it.  I guess he thought he'd keep it for another day!

Yeah, pretty sure that was mentioned in the online chats with Axl.

Yep, that could well be true.  Maybe Slash didnt want to use it for Guns at that particular time.

I listened to the mp3 comparing FTP w/the clip on the Making of Estranged video and I think the guitar riffs sound quite similar. What does everyone else think?

Didn't Axl give a certain timeframe that Slash first came to him with Fall To Pieces (like when they started bringing in ideas for the new album)?  I think it was well after the videos were made.

I found this on the thread where they have the whole axl letter back when he posted on the boards speaking about FTP-doen't really give a timeframe

"The battles were during the breakup. Our people and my individual legal basically forced me to go thru the motions with everything I had to make things work for over 2 years in the sense that if they felt I wasn't making every effort 110% and with all the sincerity and all above board I wouldn't have their support which I wanted, couldn't afford to lose or risk losing. Which led to the trial period where Slash played the key bits of Fall to Pieces but once I showed some interest that was over."

Or he didn't finish it back then.

It's a generic riff he uses in a lot of songs - During the SCOM bridge and the ending of Patience for example...
