Slash Sahara Japan Single

Velvet Revolver and ex-Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash (nee Saul Hudson) will be releasing the two track Sahara single in Japan on November 11th to promote his forthcoming solo album titled Slash and Friends, with B’z frontman Koshi Inaba providing vocals.

The second track on the single is a version of the Guns N’ Roses classic Paradise City, featuring venerable rap group CYPRESS HILL and Fergie [a.k.a. Stacy Ann Ferguson] of the BLACK EYED PEAS.

According to the guitarist, “the record is in its mixing stage and the mixes to this point sound great. We have recorded 18 songs, with one more I want to track in the next couple weeks.” Slash added, “the record is still slated for a February/March [2010] release.”
