Title: Williams Riley Band Help Slash Go Country Post by: FunkyMonkey on January 17, 2009, 10:44:15 PM Williams Riley Band Help Slash Go Country
Posted Jan 13th 2009 Although they've only been together for about six months, the Williams Riley Band can already boast an impressive list of collaborators, including legendary rock guitarist Slash. The former Guns N' Roses member takes a stab at country on the band's self-titled debut album, which also features Edwin McCain and Bryan White, among others. http://www.theboot.com/2009/01/13/williams-riley-band-help-slash-go-country/ The Village Idiot: How was it recording ?Road & Me? with Slash? Williams: It was pretty intimidating at first, because you hear a lot of stories about Guns ?N Roses. At least two of the members had been brought back to life after drug overdoses. He is the biggest rock star in the world. ... Slash is one of the nicest guys I?ve ever met in my life. I was pleasantly surprised that I wasn?t going to get a guitar busted over my skull. He was easy to work with, he liked the song. He had been listening to the song, he said ?Man I love it, it?s a great song to play to, you can let it rip.? I said ?What I want you to do is knock Nashville on their ass. I want them to say wow. Knock them on their ass.? What else are you supposed to get from Slash? I don?t want him to play the fiddle. I want people to know that the greatest rock star in the world is playing on my record. VI: Will he be playing with you guys on tour any? Williams: Absolutely. That was one of the last things we talked about. We knew there were going to be some key shows in the next four to five months. ?If I?m not busy, I?ll come on stage and be there playing with you,? (he said). It may be a secret and a great surprise when it happens, but he will walk out on stage with us, absolutely.
