Slash

SAUL HUDSON (Slash) was born in London in 1965 and became world famous as the lead guitarist with Guns N' Roses, until he left the group in 1996. He then co-founded Velvet Revolver, through which he again enjoyed worldwide success until the late 2000s.

In 2010, he released his debut solo album featuring guest musicians including Ozzy Osbourne and Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters. In 1991, he starred on Michael Jackson's hard rock ballad Give It To Me. Time magazine named him runner-up on their list of The 10 Best Electric Guitar Players in 2009, with the top spot going to Jimi Hendrix. His second solo album is set for release in March or April.
