care to elaborate a bit more on that? I can't do the research on my own at the moment.
it would help me improve the sheet of sessions
thanks!
Sure.
It was posted on Beltrami's official site by October 2002 that he had worked on "several GNR songs" and then some titles. That was only the post date but not when it actually occurred.
Also, both Beltrami and Paul Buckmaster composed several parts (not just orchestration) for GNR and some are guitar parts, intros, musical pieces and so on. Their involvement started in or around 2000 (I'd believe Buckmaster's was earlier than that, as The Blues, TWAT and so on already contain his parts on '99 versions).
Thyme is/was not a song and just a piece written by Beltrami. Think of it like "The General" intro - playback was presented several times on tour - as it was an instrumental piece that got used in a song. Thyme was the name of a piece.

Re: Chinese Democracy's unreleased sister album "PRL"
@otto: still I find it a bit strange. Chinese Whispers only talk about involvement of those two in summer (likely July) 2002. so I find it hard to believe one or both those were involved already some years earlier. is there some source for that information? cuz I can't find any...

Besides the 99/2000 leaks that already have orchestration that are credited to Buckmaster on CD, leaks that have orchestration and are not on CD, a bit of stitching together the timelines to fit this and some anecdotal evidence, no. Nothing else I can source this directly as of now.

The song previously known as P.R.L. is the same as Perhaps.
I've got this confused/wrong/was misled. Whatever.
Thyme is not even a song and just the name of the instrumental arrangement.
Got this correct tho
