Title: Slash At Guitar Center: Interview - Videos Post by: FunkyMonkey on February 06, 2010, 07:23:39 PM Slash: At Guitar Center
February 5, 2010 Slash is more than just a musician, he's a legend. Best known for his work with Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver, Slash has also served as a first-call studio gun-for-hire who has played on records by Alice Cooper, Daughtry, Bob Dylan, Michael Jackson, and Iggy Pop. But for the first time since he shot onto the scene more than two decades ago, Slash is going the "lone gunman" route and releasing his first bona fide solo album. Unlike Slash's Snakepit, which released two albums, and Slash's Blues Ball, the group he toured with in the late Nineties, this new project, called Slash and Friends, is not a band but rather a true solo effort that features a variety of different singers, musicians and songwriting collaborators. As a result it exposes more of Slash's breadth as a musician than his band efforts. "I went into different areas where I could play music that I couldn't necessarily do in my own bands," says Slash. "I went in a lot of different directions, which was fun to do."
