In September 2008, Slash began production on his debut solo album. He described the process of recording by himself as “cathartic”. He also mentioned that working on the album gave him a chance to “…take a little bit of a break from all the politics and the democracy that is a band and just sort of do my own thing for a little bit.”
Slash‘s wife, Perla, revealed that many different artists would appear on the album, saying, “It’s going to be Slash and friends, with everyone from Ozzy Osbourne to Fergie.”
The album, simply titled Slash, debuted at No. 3 on the U.S. chart upon its release in April 2010. It featured an all-star roster of guest musicians, including Ozzy Osbourne, Fergie of The Black Eyed Peas, Adam Levine of Maroon 5, and M. Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold. The album also features musical collaborations with former Guns N’ Roses members Izzy Stradlin, Steven Adler, and Duff McKagan.
In 2009, TIME magazine named him runner-up (to Jimi Hendrix) on their list of “The 10 Best Electric Guitar Players”, while Rolling Stone placed him at number 65 on their list of “The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time” in 2011. Gibson Guitar Corporation ranked Slash as number 34 on their “Top 50 Guitarists of All Time”, while their readers landed him number 9 on Gibson’s “Top 25 Guitarists of All Time”.
In 2012, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Guns N’ Roses‘ classic lineup.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BOOK/HIRE SLASH?
(i.e., what is the booking fee to hire SLASH for an event?)
(i.e., what is SLASH booking fee to perform at an event?)
Official booking fees for SLASH, or any other celebrity, are determined based on a number of factors and may change at any time without prior notice.
Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist’s calendar, whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the artist’s concerts, the current demand for the artist’s music, market activity, etc.
As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist’s price to increase as the artist becomes more popular or decrease when the artist becomes less popular.
Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at any time. Generally, the artist’s manager has a role in the decision to accept any particular offer from a talent buyer.
