Jack White snubs Slash album offer

Rex Features

White Stripes frontman Jack White has turned down the chance to appear on Slash's debut solo album.

The Guns N' Roses guitarist claimed that he tried to recruit White, confessing that he was the "one guy" he really wanted to collaborate with on the record.

"I wanted to get Jack White to sing on something, but he didn't want to sing," he told MusicRadar.

"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."

The LP Slash & Friends, which is expected to be released in early 2010, is rumoured to feature Dave Grohl, Alice Cooper and Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea.
