The early 2000s saw Slick return to Bowie's roster, appearing on the studio albums "Heathen" (2002) and "Reality" (2003). Slick toured with Bowie in support of those albums as well, and performed on the Bowie DVD and double CD A Reality Tour. Working with producer Mark Plati Slick released a solo album, "Zig Zag", which featured guest performances by David Bowie, Robert Smith, Joe Elliott, Royston Langdon and Martha Davis of The Motels. Slick then contributed guitar tracks to a Mark Plati remix of The Cure's "A Forest", which appeared on " Join the Dots: B-Sides and Rarities" in 2004.
