Episode #10: Featuring Steven Adler

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

mercredi 20 juillet 2022 • Durée 31:28

For our final interview of Season One, we catch up with Steven Adler in his home in Los Angeles to talk about his early days with Slash, Marc Canter’s dedication to the band, the first rehearsal of the Appetite lineup, and the infamous Hell Tour. Steven grew up in the San Fernando Valley and became friends with Slash in junior high school. They cycled in and out of various bands between 1984 and 1985 such as Roadcrew and The New Hollywood Rose. In June 1985, Steven was called by Slash to replace Rob Gardner as the drummer for the newly formed Guns N' Roses and completed the Appetite lineup with Axl, Izzy, Duff and Slash. Steven can be heard on Appetite for Destruction and their second studio album GN'R Lies, and he toured the world with the band before leaving in 1990. In this episode you’ll: Hear about Steven Adler meeting Marc Canter and Slash in junior high school and introducing Slash to the guitar. Learn about the bands and musicians that inspired Steven to become a drummer and what was behind his drive to become the best drummer he could possibly be. Listen to the story about Steven almost joining the Navy instead of joining Guns N' Roses. Find out about Steven’s experiences in GNR and the important role the band played in his life.

During the Fall of 1984, The New Hollywood Rose had called it quits, Izzy had joined London, and at that time, Rob Gardner was playing drums in a band with Tracii Guns called L.A. Guns. Eventually Raz Cue would get involved with L.A. Guns and encourage not only a member lineup but also a name change which would result in the creation of Guns N’ Roses. As the original drummer for Guns N’ Roses, Rob helped create and influence the band’s sound and although his involvement with the band ended early, the blood, sweat, tears and grooves that Rob poured into Pyrrhus, L.A. Guns and Guns N’ Roses can still be heard today as it is forever pressed into the vinyl of Appetite for Destruction.

In this episode you’ll: Hear about Rob moving to L.A. in high school and meeting Izzy, Tracii and Mike Jagosz. Hear about Rob’s former bands Pyrrhus and L.A. Guns and how L.A.

Domenic Priore, author of Riot on the Sunset Strip, picks up where we left off in 1966 on the Sunset Strip during the counterculture riots and takes us on a rock n’ roll historical journey in L.A. from the 60s to the 90s that includes bands like The Byrds, The Doors, Van Halen and Guns N’ Roses.
