Book Reviews of Slash
Book Review: Great Read!
Summary: 5 Stars
It's a captivating in depth look at how lucky on many different levels Slash has been to date. I enjoyed reading this book and I appreciated his candor, but it left me wondering just how great GNR could have become if not for their excesses in not only substance abuse and outlandish behavior, but lavish spending on meaningless items in order to appease one member of the band.
It also makes me pause and wonder if what Slash is true about that members manic behavior and self centerdness, how that prevented them from reaching even greater heights still?
Get this book, it's at the very least entertaining.

Summary: 5 Stars
I haven't finished the book yet, but so far I have deeply enjoyed it. I was extremely impressed by the fast shipping on this product; I ordered it on Thursday, and received it Saturday. The book itself is full of great pictures and is very insightful. Great for anyone who really loves Slash, Guns N' Roses, or just rock music in general.Book Review: I am currently reading the book
Summary: 5 Stars
There are some good stories in this book, and pages 90-91 are worth the price of the book alone. I was up reading this late at night, and I was crying I was laughing so hard at the story being told. It is fun to read behind the scene stories of what my favorite band was up to back in the day. I was a little kid in the 80s and I've been a Guns n' Roses fan since day 2 when I first heard them. So far I love the book. I bought Chinese Democracy last weekend (yay! - on vinyl) and Slash this past weekend...all I need is a full out reunion to make me completely satisfied. Come on boys!Book Review: I can't really recommend it but it's not horrible either ...
Summary: 3 Stars
As far as Rock n' Roll bios goes this one is typically mediocre ... engaging in a few parts but mostly full of RnR cliches - hot and cold running strippers, on and off heroin, in and out if rehab, trashing hotel rooms, and feuding with band mates ... ad infinitum. I've seen interviews with Slash and he comes across as a fairly intelligent person ... in this book he comes off like a third grader. It doesn't help that it's poorly written ... like it might be a first draft.
If you want to read an unique and engaging rock bio get Keith Richard's Life ... fabulous.
