Kurzbeschreibung

In the New York Times Bestseller from one of the greatest rock guitarist of our era comes a memoir that redefines sex, drugs, and rock n roll.

Beschreibung

Slash tells the tale that has yet to be told from the inside: how Guns n Roses came together, how they wrote the music that defined an era, how they survived insane, never-ending tours, how they survived themselves and, ultimately, how it all fell apart. 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 to mind. He survived it all: lawsuits, rehab, riots, notoriety, debauchery, destruction and ultimately found his creative evolution. From Slashs Snakepit, to his current band, the massively successful Velvet Revolver, Slash found an even keel by sticking to his guns. SLASH is everything the man, the myth, the legend, inspires: its funny, honest, inspiring, jaw-dropping... and, in a word, excessive.

Klappentext

From one of the greatest rock guitarists of our era comes a memoir that redefines sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.
For the first time ever, Slash tells the tale that has yet to be told from the inside: how the legendary band Guns N' Roses came together, how they wrote the music that defined an era, how they survived insane, never-ending tours, how they survived themselves, and, ultimately, how it all fell apart. Slash is a window into the world of the notoriously private guitarist and a front seat on the roller-coaster ride that was one of history's greatest rock 'n' roll machines, always on the edge of self-destruction, even at the pinnacle of its success. Slash is everything Slash is: funny, honest, ingenious, inspiring, jaw-dropping . . . and, in a word, excessive.
