Veteran rocker and Fergie are to feature on guitarist's solo project

Former Guns N' Roses Guitarist Slash is joining forces with Ozzy Osbourne on his forthcoming solo album.

Speaking in an video interview - which you can watch below - with Rockerrazzi.com, the former Guns N' Roses guitarist's wife Perla Hudson revealed that Slash has also recruited Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie for the project.

"It's going to be Slash and friends, with everyone from Ozzy (Osbourne) to Fergie," she said.

Hudson also claimed that Slash "feels great" about Guns N' Roses' long-awaited album 'Chinese Democracy', which was released this week (November 24), and described his current band Velvet Revolver as "not my husband's best work".

"He feels great about it ('Chinese Democracy'). It's long-awaited," she explained. "Our kids like it but they also like Elmo, so that goes without saying."

As previously reported on NME.COM, Slash revealed that he has demoed 14 songs for his forthcoming solo album.

I nearly wet my pants when I saw the 'Slash' tour dates linked above for tiny venues near me this week! Be warned, they are NOT SLASH! This is some Canadian odd bod called 'Nash The Slash' who plays experimental music whislt wearing full face bandages. Obviously.
