Ex-Guns N' Roses Izzy & Duff reunite

Velvet Revolver bassist Duff McKagan has recorded a guest appearance on the next album from his former Guns N' Roses bandmate, guitarist Izzy Stradlin. McKagan wrote in a message online, "I got to play on Izzy's new record (on Tuesday, April 22nd) in Ojai (California). Another stellar outing by that dude, I must say. Always a pleasure hanging with that guy; a true gentleman." There were no further details about the project.

Stradlin has kept a low profile since leaving Guns N' Roses in 1991, issuing a string of solo records. His last effort, Fire, The Acoustic Album, came out late last year.

McKagan's own side band, Loaded, is currently working on a new CD and may tour later in 2008.

McKagan and the rest of Velvet Revolver are reportedly recording demos for their next album while they search for a replacement for singer Scott Weiland.
