Legendary guitarist SLASH (VELVET REVOLVER, ex-GUNS N' ROSES) will be releasing his upcoming solo album, Slash, in the US on April 6th via EMI and in Canada via Universal Music. In the UK the album is due out on May 10th through Roadrunner Records.

The instrumental track called 'Watch This' features Dave Groh (FOO FIGHTERS) and bandmate Duff McKagan (VELVET REVOLVER, ex-Guns N' Roses) is available for free download below.

Slash spoke to BraveWords.com recently about the track: "There was no plan to do an instrumental and I had been chasing Dave Grohl down to sing that song for months, and originally it was this cool riff and like a couple different parts and it didn’t have any real arrangement. And I finally got Dave and he’s like, 'you know, the reason I’ve been sort of dodging you is I don’t wanna sing it.' He goes, 'I hate singing other people’s stuff. I did it once and it was a disaster. I wanna play drums.' So, you know, I was like, 'okay, you know what, maybe we’ll make this the instrumental ‘cause I just want to do something with Dave.' And I sat down and I did a demo of it with the vocal in my head, sort of did the vocal lines on the guitar. And just slapped it together, called Duff up, asked him if he wanted to play it, got Duff and I and Dave in the studio. And I think that was like 3, maybe the fourth take and that was it."
