Slash

Memoir by סלאש

Blurb

Slash is an autobiography written by rock guitarist Slash with Anthony Bozza.
Most of the book focuses on Slash's years with Guns N' Roses, including many rock star cliches: trashed hotel rooms, groupies, drug abuse, etc. Slash talks about Axl Rose, frontman of Guns N' Roses, and his departure from the band in the mid-1990s. He explains that Axl's inability to show up to gigs and rehearsals on time, in addition to Axl's almost dictator-like control of the band contributed to the band's downfall. Slash also states that Axl wanted to change the musical direction of the band to include more synthesizers and effects, rather than guitar-driven rock as with their earlier material.
Slash relates how he eventually achieved stability and sobriety after his second marriage and the birth of two sons.
The book's tagline is: 'It seems excessive, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen...'
