The Autobiography Pdf, Epub, Ebook SLASH: THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Slash,Anthony Bozza | 480 pages | 06 Jun 2008 | HarperCollins Publishers | 9780007257775 | English | London, United Kingdom Slash: The Autobiography PDF Book Jul 08, James Hartley rated it really liked it. Would that I could say he is as good a storyteller. Related Articles. The storytelling focuses on so much on small detail it starts to get boring. Oftentimes he is very blunt and the effect is hilario Great book! That was, unavoidably, the beginning of the end. I am a huge gnr fan and I have to say that I am terribly disappointed with this book. She hung them on the wall leading up the stairs in our house. I sort of want to take you under my wing and give you a hug dude. Slash really exposes himself and gave us everything we might possibly want. Least Likely To Succeed 6. Roger Taylor is a singer, guitarist and drummer known for playing with legendary band Queen and for his work as a solo artist. I did like, however, that even though at this point he was really angry with Axl for everything that happened with Guns N' Roses, he made sure to say that this was his viewpoint, and that Axl no doubt had his own, and both were equally as valid. For anyone who grew up listening to "Appetite For Destruction" and screamed along to "Welcome to the Jungle," the story of that album's genesis from Slash's perspective is very intriguing. For me to sound like "me" I have to have a Marshall. But too much of the book is repetitive and old news. Various girlfriends are mentioned briefly, without much detail, until he talks about his wife. Off To The Races 9. Slash's narrative was also a bit all over the place - he'd be talking about one incident, and then jump to another, and then go on a third tangent, and then get back to his original thought. About Slash. It seems like every chapter after page 50 is intentionally overly foreshadowing the demise of GNR and after a while, all of the drug experiences seem to blend together with the notable exception of drug-induced hallucations resembling the monster from "Predator" chasing our hero around a spa in Arizona. Slash isn't shy about talking frankly about his drug addictions and the deleterious effect it's had on his relationships and life in general. It's a cool place - they've got a bar, they play rock music, it's the last vestige of cool rock 'n' roll in the city. This was a good read, started slow, but built into a decent portrait of one of the most iconic rock guitarists of recent years. He became famous as the guitarist of the hard rock and heavy metal band Guns N' Roses , one of the most iconic rock groups to emerge in the s and considered by many to be one of the greatest bands of all time. It I love rock. He stole his signature top hat from a street shop, along with a belt. He has been sober since , and in he published his autobiography, titled simply Slash. They are cryptically unchanged. You know who was a great guitar player? He continued to play with them through their rendition of "Paradise City. But they definitely do to Slash, who, as much as you can tell from this book, seems very happy. Duff was the glue on that song - he came up with the breakdown, that wild rumbling bass line, and Izzy provided the texture. Among one is David Bowie who warns Slash at one of his lowest points, "You are exposing yourself to the darker realms of your subconscious being. During this time Slash and Axl were having some heated arguments about Guns N' Roses and what would happen next. I get that living on the road, touring, has its challenges. Fifteen years of over-drinking and drug abuse had swollen that organ to one stop short of exploding. I still live close to the Strip, just up the hill, and when people are visiting from out of town, the first place I send them is the Rainbow. That's to say nothing of Slash's penchant to say "More on that later" ad nauseum and the book's copy editor apparently having fallen asleep at the wheel I seriously lost track of all of the errors. Whether or not I deserve to be is another story. It is also an intensely personal account of struggle and triumph: as Guns N' Roses journeyed to the top, Slash battled his demons, escaping the overwhelming reality with women, heroin, coke, crack, vodka, and whatever else came along. View all 13 comments. Slash is an autobiography written by rock guitarist Slash with Anthony Bozza. You can't blame him for needing to rei Of course, I'm automatically biased when it comes to Slash. Too bad, you're going to! In , Slash met Perla Ferrar and on October 15, , married her. Slash: The Autobiography Writer I can't help but wonder how much better this book would have been if Neil Strauss had been the one helping Slash out. There is an important thing missing. Start your review of Slash. I would always stop just when there are only 20 or so pages left all because I don't ever want to part with the book. He even sometimes remarks about what is currently at the particular location, which is completely uninteresting to someone who has never been to LA. But it just did not make a strong impression on me either way. People go there religiously, and that's probably why I go there. What's that, you say you love the idea? She hung them on the wall leading up the stairs in our house. From Slash's Snakepit to his current band, the massively successful Velvet Revolver,Slash found an even keel by sticking to his guns. Its strange that Slash doesn't seem remorseful for much of anything even though he's acted like a juvenile delinquent most of his life. Great book! When you were a baby, the Gods reached down and turned your right arm into a thunderbolt. In the movie Ebby Calvin LaLoosh is this kind of silly dude whose right arm is a thunderbolt, and that talent is fascinating but it doesn't mean he is. In a laid-back, conversational style, Slash recounts his fascinating life from his L. May 22, Marita Hansen rated it it was amazing. As soon as he could string chords and a solo together, Slash wanted to be in a band and sought out friends with similar interests. Slash spent his adolescence on the streets of Hollywood, discovering drugs, drinking, rock music, and girls, all while achieving notable status as a BMX rider. I feel like I'm way more the demographic. Mar 06, JenniferD rated it liked it Shelves: library-borrow , nonfiction , memoir , books , i-wanna-rock. Ringo Starr first rose to fame in the early s as the drummer for the legendary rock group the Beatles, and is now the richest drummer of all time. If you're only interested in the Guns n Roses years, skip to page John Deacon is a bassist and songwriter who played with the band Queen. Oh yeah, and about the money. I prefer my rock novels to contain more crazy backstage antics, and, let's face it: smut. It's sort of a trip because I'm probably one of them. A family friend gave him the nickname "Slash," because he was constantly in motion. It was fascinating to learn how GNR formed and what went on behind the scenes. Really nothing unexpected here: Slash loves pet snakes, dope, and pussy not necessarily in that order , and being a rock star never faces any shortage of the three, nor of guitars or booze, his other two totally unsurprising great loves. We all were pretty positive that that would never happen, so it's still sort of blowing our minds. Anger, confusion, sadness, and frustration are shaken up together inside you like a snow globe. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. He survived it all: lawsuits, rehab, riots, notoriety, debauchery, and destruction, and ultimately found his creative evolution. So destructive in one setting, yet so creative in another. I cannot really say WHY I wasn't. Axl is like a magnet for problems. The behind-the-scenes chapters on GNR's formative years and the distinct personalities of Slash, Axl, et al are rendered with a touch of both gentle nostalgia and uncompromising honesty. I always found Slash to be, besides Axl, the most articulate of the band. Slash: The Autobiography Reviews You would think it's good, but it's not. Then I drank a gallon of vodka every day. I feel like I'm way more the demographic. He quit smoking in following his mother's death from cancer. In , he joined his first band, Tidus Sloan, and dropped out of high school to tour. He's the kind of guy that would get a toothbrush stuck down his throat because that particular toothbrush happened to be defective. Finally, you are not a fan of the band if you like one guitar or drum solo you are a fan of the guitarist or drummer. Slash may have done a lot of drugs, but from what he tells us, he didn't do many "exciting" things while on them. The erratic curls part just enough to reveal sexy full lips.

As well as reproducing what is regarded by many as the “Ultimate Rock Sound”, the AFD100 also contains FROMJIMMARSHALL some truly awesome features, the first being Marshall’s new electronic power attenuation.

No limited wattage choices to click between and no compromising your tone, just smooth and consistent power attenuation that is simple to use and makes the AFD100 ideal for stage, studio I would like to thank you personally for choosing this limited AFD100 Slash and home use. Signature Series Amplifier – our tribute to one of the greatest rock tones ever recorded and one of the most influential guitarists of the past The Presence, Bass, Middle and Treble controls dictate the overall tone of the AFD100’s highly interactive EQ section, meaning that changes 25 years. to one will affect the parameters of the others.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Slash Plugs In With MOGAMI Cable Iconic guitarist Slash endorses MOGAMI cable. Los Angeles, CA, November 20, 2012 – Slash has become an official endorsee of MOGAMI cable. The endorsement deal unites one of the world’s most celebrated guitarists with the industry’s finest audio cable. “I was delighted when Slash’s team approached us, indicating Slash was considering a switch to MOGAMI cables, and asked if we would be interested,” said Phil Tennison, product manager of MOGAMI. “We were quick to say yes! Slash is one of the greatest musicians of all time. He knows great tone. His endorsement of MOGAMI is tremendous. We look forward to collaborating with Slash on many performances to come.” Slash created some of rock’s most legendary guitar riffs as part of Guns-N-Roses and went on to solidify his rock stardom with Slash’s Snakepit and Velvet Revolver.
