Re: Jack White turned down Slash collaboration

Jack White has turned down the chance to appear on Slash's debut solo album, according to the former Guns N' Roses guitarist.

Slash is due to release 'Slash & Friends' in early 2010, and the album reportedly features a host of guest musicians, including the likes of Flea, Dave Grohl and Alice Cooper.

However, the one artist that Slash says he really wanted to appear was Jack White – however, The White Stripes mainman was apparently reluctant to sing on the record.

"I wanted to get Jack White to sing on something, but he didn't want to sing," Slash told Musicradar.com. "He said I'll play drums, I'll play guitar, but I don't wanna sing. He was one guy that I wanted to work with. Pretty much everyone else that I went after I managed to get."

Writing on his Twitter.com/SlashHudson account, the guitarist said he hopes to have the album completely finished by the end of November.

You could make a case that Slash turned him down. 16 He was willing to do something, but Slash was only interested in a vocal contribution.



Jack, just shut up and sing....

When you ask a singer to sing on your album and he says he'll do everything but sing, I think that's pretty much a polite way to say "I don't want to be on your album."

He's more of a guitarist than a singer even though he sings for both his main projects.

Jack plays drums in his new band The Dead Weather. Maybe he's a bit tired of singin'.
