Didn't know the Stones were Slash's favorite band.
Thx for sharing.

In his autobiography, Slash autobiography,
if memory serves me, he wrote that he managed to shake hand with Ronnie Wood, at the after-party after Stones show at the LA Coliseum.
Slash was there, and he remembers that the Stones played You Can't Always Get What You Want so good, that he'll never forget...at the time he was 15 yrs old
Now, if Slash's memory is good, that would be year 1980. Did the Stones played that year in L.A ? If they did, it would be interesting to find recording of that show(s) and to hear YCAGWYW....

That would be a pretty bold rewritting of G&R history by Slash as the one who was obsessed with the Stones was Izzy Stradlin.
Slash was more in a Led Zep/Jimmy Page trip = a one-guitar band with a virtuoso that can play rythmn and lead.
Izzy was more into the two-guitars "ancient art of weaving" thing.
we might’ve been in the same row because he was two rows behind me. I turned around and saw him and pointed and said “Slash!” And that was the end of it . He had an expression on his face like someone just shit in the punch bowl and tried to totally ignore me. That was the extent of my interaction I wasn’t expecting anything . But it was cool to see him .Quote

He sat behind me at the wiltern show. Met Tom Petty that night too. Both super cool guys.

Slash has very good taste , besides his fierce work on the fingerboard . As far as Izzy goes , on his debut solo album of Izzy and the Ju Ju Hounds you can clearly hear how much he loves the Stones as it is all over the album and it is good stuff !

agree, Greek!
love that first Izzy album...his other albums are hit & miss.
"Fire: the Acoustic Album" is good and has Stonesy-influence on some (and needs Axl singing on some)...
worth a listen.
...of course, this thread is about Slash....who is awesome.
He played on Bernard's last album - "My Friend Sin" was the name of the tune, I think...

Didn't Slash play on CYHMK as well? That might not have been Bernard's latest album, though.
That was a good tour and a great memory as well .Quote

During his 93 tour he covered "Jiving Sister Fanny" "Crackin' Up" "Little Red Rooster" and "Happy" (at least once).

I would have loved to be a fly buzzing around the room to hear and see the expression on Slash face after Keith told him thatQuote

There's also the story that Slash was present in the studio when Keith recorded Thru And Thru. When he finally asked Keith if he could also play on the track Keith told him in a very Keith-ish way that unfortunately this will not happen.
