Entitled 'Classic Rock Presents Slash' AKA "The Slash Pack", the bundle includes the new Slash solo album, a 132 page magazine with interviews and photos from the sessions, poster, and includes two bonus tracks, one of which is 'Baby Can't Drive' featuring Alice. On top of that this version of the album will actually be released on April 7th before the normal version and will be available in places like WH Smiths in the magazine racks, as well as music stores who normally stock the magazine.
