Interview of Slash (1992)

Use Your Illusion years, top hat still on

In 1992, Slash sits for press while Guns N’ Roses tour the two Use Your Illusion albums across arenas. Top hat on, Les Paul in reach, he talks about the leads and about what is going on around Axl. The band has already made the hard rock show a long run of arena dates.

He stays laconic, half-hidden behind curls and shades, and he keeps coming back to the guitar during those Illusion years.
