SLASH interviewed about early influences, FM radio, Van Halen in 2010 | Raw & Uncut 

Just watched GNR live in Munich a Week ago and had a amazing Time. So Glad he is still around and i got to See HIM & and GNR live. One of My all Time Favorites. Pure Icon

Slash is the guitar icon period

It’s cool hearing Slash mention Thin Lizzy. You can really hear how they influenced GNR when you listen to tracks like Warriors, Killer on the Loose, S&M, The Rocker, Black Boy on the Corner. That rare balance of soul, street cred and genuine songwriting ability

If you guys ever managed to interview Axl I'll die

His November Rain Solo in the wind in front of a church is the most memorable moment in my childhood.

Such a great guy! Horns up for Slash and the great music he has been a part of \m/

Thanks for the interview Owen Wilson!

Van Halen are innovators/geniuses and pure Rock Royalty

I love how you bring out the humanity in the artists that you talk to - regular folk who have attained lofty heights, in bringing us the metal groove. Thank you for that. I have been a fan of yours since 2010, and will continue to follow all of your endeavors. Peace!

my older sister did the,"ok enough am radio" in mid to late 70s.it was just in time for a lot of kiss, pink floyd, zepplin, aerosmith, judas priest, black sabbath,max webster,rush,van halen.

Huge thumbs-up! Great questions and awesome answers. I think the main takeaway for me is a sense of authenticity and clarity. Like Slash’s guitar notes, his speaking voice rings solid and true.

This guy asked some killer questions! Best interview I’ve seen in a while 🤘🏻

Best Slash interview I've seen.ive seen a lot.

Love me some Slash. Great interview!

I Love it when we talk about his songs he loves.

I love this channel just subscribed, so good Interviews man. great interviewer+background crew! SLASH+CHRIS ADLER BOOMHH!! I think he was wearing Breitling luxury chronograph watch. Funny how he had a one string guitar, Im a drummer and played master of puppers on guitar but only with one string, LOL!

Slash is so freaking awesome!!

i heard the opening riff of sweet child and knew i wanted to play like the guy. Slash was my guitar inspiration i guess.

Slash seems like a really cool guy. Really laid back, no ego.

I just want to know what happened to Take 1..

Sounds like Lars is doing interview, didn’t realize how much there cadence is the same. Love me some Metal evolution.

Have u ever realized how UN rock n roll America really is I mean when u walk outside your door

\__/ love this

Slash is Supercool

Back in 2010 when metal was still big and good now it’s not the same

ATTITUDE/ Hard rock and metal music does energize you and it is for the uncontrollably wild ones, holy outlaws/

I love GNR and AFD no doubt set the world on fire. But when talking “LA glam metal” I would like to get Slash’s thoughts on the main riff to Lay It Down. You can’t tell me Warren DeMartini was a poser...

Flagged for false advertising, I came here for Nash the Slash......

Slash says he didnt care for glam, yet he auditioned for Poison. That makes zero sense.

EDDIE VAN HALEN JPYF8TDITCOYVOYVOYVOUVOYG9U EDDIE'S MY FUCKING IDOL MY ROLE MODEL

How did Slash ever stay so clear-headed and articulate (dare I say he sounds intelligent?!) after all those drugs!?!?!?!

Come on Slash are you telling me George Lynch wasn't genuine?????

no

For me, I always viewed GNR as sort of a bridge between Glam Metal and Alternative.....

I-WANT-YOU-TO-..

VH wasn't glam. They were out before that whole scene that started to fester like a wound around 81/2. They had a showy/fun presentation in the late 70s to early 80s, but they had late 70s ethos and clothes IN THE LATE 70s where it was appropriate. The problem is that damn near the entire spate of lesser bands in the 80s tried to copy their style from the prior decade and did a shit job of it. No one likes a counterfeit. It makes you look like a sellout, which they all were. They were corny cut-rate approximations that lacked the musicianship VH had. Motley Crue was a bit different with the Satanic thing and GNR was more stripped down. However, I've seen all 3 of those groups called glam at least once and incorrectly so for the most part. Crue was the closest to it with their late 80s make up years where Vince wore pink lipstick and shit. However, neither VH nor GNR was glam simply because they came out of LA like the rest. They had their own self-created looks/presentations and both of them looked different than the majority of bands that were out when either of them hit. When VH hit, most of the bands were leather/spike clad angry looking blokes. When GNR hit, everyone was glam. Similarly when GNR became popular, you started seeing shitty sounding and looking approximations of them with dudes in leather/jeans/top hats, etc. The thing that stands out about VH and GNR is not their appearances, though they both had very saleable appearances and they were better looking in a general sense than a band like Journey (ugliest band ever). It was their musical chops that made them huge as soon as they dropped and that keeps them forever well-thought of today. Meanwhile bands like RATT and Slaughter were shit on by rock fans then and now.

G'n'r not a glam hair band ? really? no sunset boulevard posers ? really ? to me that's exactly what they were !
