We continue the origin story of the Appetite lineup by following what Slash called “the incestuous revolving door of band and musicians.” Our guest Steve Darrow was the bass player for the New Hollywood Rose after Chris Weber and the Hollywood Rose broke up. Izzy and Axl started the New Hollywood Rose by recruiting Steve Darrow in 1984, as well as another guitar player and a drummer (can you guess who?). Izzy preferred only one guitar player in the band and left the New Hollywood Rose, joining London with Nadir D’ Priest.   In this episode, you’ll: • Hear how Steve Darrow met Axl and Izzy and how their love of Hanoi Rocks, Aerosmith and mash up of metal bands shaped their sound. • Watch the first time Axl, Slash and Steven Adler and Steve Darrow play together and how Steven Adler managed to get through his first live performance. • Understand how the New Hollywood Rose look and sound evolved from metal to glam.   Links: Preview this episode on YouTube Subscribe to our Patreon Site to see the video version of this episode and the photographs Marc captured during the time this version of Hollywood Rose played: https://www.patreon.com/first50gigs_gnr Learn more about your ad choices.
