The full demo of the collaboration between Slash and Chester Bennington has finally been released.
The track is called “Crazy” and was recorded over a decade ago for the album Slash (2010), which featured guests such as Dave Grohl, Ozzy Osbourne , and Chris Cornell. At the time, Chester was prevented from releasing the track due to contractual issues with Linkin Park. Some parts of the song were later used by Slash in “Doctor Alibi,” a collaboration with Lemmy Kilmister.
The full version of “Crazy” was released by producer Big Chris Flores themed podcast Guns N' Roses, Appetite for Distortion. According to Flores (who produced the track), he found the recording in his archives and sent it to Slash, who contacted Chester's widow, Talinda, about the possibility of releasing the track (via Radio Rock).
The final version of "Crazy" features the addition of bass by Dug Pinnick, from King'sX.
