From one of the greatest rock guitarists of our era comes a memoir that redefines sex, drugs, and rock 'n' rollHe was born in England but reared in L.A., surrounded by the leading artists of the day amidst the vibrant hotbed of music and culture that was the early seventies. 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. But everything changed in his world the day he first held the beat-up one-string guitar his grandmother had discarded in a closet.The instrument became his voice and it triggered a lifelong passion that made everything else irrelevant. 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. His closest friend, Steven Adler, proved to be a conspirator for the long haul. As hairmetal bands exploded onto the L.A. scene and topped the charts, Slash sought his niche and a band that suited his raw and gritty sensibility.He found salvation in the form of four young men of equal mind: Axl Rose, Izzy Stradlin, Steven Adler, and Duff McKagan. Together they became Guns N' Roses, one of the greatest rock 'n' roll bands of all time. Dirty, volatile, and as authentic as the streets that weaned them, they fought their way to the top with groundbreaking albums such as the iconic Appetite for Destruction and Use Your Illusion I and II.Here, for the first time ever, Slash tells the tale that has yet to be told from the inside: how the band 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. This is a window onto the world of the notoriously private guitarist and a 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. This is a candid recollection and reflection of Slash's friendships past and present, from easygoing Izzy to ever-steady Duff to wild-child Steven and complicated Axl.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.He survived it all: lawsuits, rehab, riots, notoriety, debauchery, and destruction, and ultimately found his creative evolution. From Slash's 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: it's funny, honest, inspiring, jaw-dropping . . . and, in a word, excessive.

I bought this to research a writing project I'm working on, and it was a terrific read. The writing style is conversational--in that clearly transcribed conversation kind of way, but it felt comfortable, like Slash was just telling me stories. And, dude, this is a guy I want telling me stories.PROS: This book moves in an effective and engaging way. This will evolve into a con (we'll get to that later), but the pacing (while erratic) feels genuine, like a guy with a dozen lifetimes worth of experiences just chatting with me. I love the genuine nature of his storytelling.It's a rock and roll memoir, and it's definitely got the sex, drugs, and rock and roll you'd look for. But often these types of memoirs feel more about the stories than the person, but Slash as a human being comes out here, and I feel like a get a sense of him as a person I certainly never had before this. The stuff about his childhood felt carefully told and important. In other memoirs I've read, it often feels like the writer is just trying to get through that stuff. Not here. And that's pretty cool.But the rock and roll stories are still great. He's a terrific storyteller, really. Maybe he doesn't give you fully fleshed portraits of everybody he discuss, but he definitely keeps me informed and engaged and I was rarely lost on what childhood friend or whatnot he's talking about at a given moment. I felt his voice in my head as I read through this, and certainly was entertained.As I mentioned above, I picked this book up to research more about the relationship between Slash and Axl, but I was vacationing when I read it, and wasn't particularly short of time, so I didn't just jump ahead in the book to find the Sunset Strip and beyond stuff, and instead read through. I'm glad I did. I was entertained, educated, and ended up feeling much more informed about an artist I was already interested in and liked. I certainly liked Slash a lot more after I finished the book.CONS: As I mentioned above, it does meander at times, and it certainly jumps around. This style didn't bother me, but the flow feels less like a writer and more like a guy telling stories. For a memoir like this, that's fine by me.Likely you're not going to be interested in the book if you aren't already interested in Slash or Guns N' Roses, but if you got this far in thinking about it, just read it. It's a good read, accessible and engaging. Absolutely recommended.
