(Rock News Desk) Duff McKagan has revealed that Velvet Revolver recorded some tracks with Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor but that doesn't mean he'll become a member of the band.

At the turn of the year VR spokesmen said they were close to making a decision on who'd replace sacked singer Scott Weiland and bring the band out of a three-year hiatus. Rumours suggested it was Taylor, but he made no comment at the time, simply saying: "To be continued." VR guitarist Slash later admitted Taylor was in the frame, and McKagan confirmed there had been discussions.

Now the bassist reveals the band actually recorded together. He tells MusicRadar: "We recorded a bunch of songs with Corey. I think he's f**king great � he's the best voice of a new generation, the best rock'n'roll voice out there. He's got a lot of positive energy and I'd be proud to do anything with him. more on this story
