A young Slash formed his band Road Crew in 1983 alongside drummer Steven Adler. After they disbanded he joined another group called Black Sheep with vocalist Willie Bass. In 1984 Black Sheep supported the Christian rock outfit Stryder alongside Hollywood Rose where he met Axl Rose and quickly formed a friendship. Slash performed with Hollywood Rose briefly, but his big break came when Tracii Guns quit Guns N' Roses a year later when Slash was asked to join the band.
