Slash & Friends is the first upcoming solo album by former Guns N' Roses and current Velvet Revolver guitarist, Slash. The album is to be produced by Eric Valentine (Smash Mouth, The All-American Rejects, Good Charlotte, Queens Of The Stone Age) and features former Jane's Addiction bassist Chris Chaney and former Nine Inch Nails and Guns N' Roses drummer Josh Freese. It is also to feature several guest vocalists including Meat Loaf, Alice Cooper, Chris Cornell, Fergie of The Black Eyed Peas, Myles Kennedy of Alter Bridge, Kid Rock, M. Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold, Ozzy Osbourne, Nicole Scherzinger and Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters and formerly of Nirvana.
The album features four of the five original members of Guns N' Roses: Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Steven Adler and Duff McKagan. Singer Axl Rose is the only original Guns N' Roses member absent from the Slash & Friends line-up.
Anyone else looking forward to this album!?! I've listened to the single 'Sahara' that was released in Japan a while ago. Although the vocals are all in Japanese, I really like it :) It's B side (Slash feat. Fergie and Cypress Hill - Paradise City) is, to be honest, as a GN'R fan, terrible.
You can listen to the two tracks here:
