He produced Rocket Man few years back aswell, the sound was already better than anything Slash released after Snakepit.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic blues songs covered by Slash and some renowned guest appearences I think this will be a really good listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 The cool thing about blues is that a song’s interpretation can make it totally different from artist to artist. Killing Floor done by Led Zeppelin in 68- 69 became The Lemon Song, and both of those might as well be different songs than Slash’s version, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was actually that topping all the versions that are already out there (or even just doing them justice) is going to be challenging. I'm excited and I hope they do, just saying there are already a lot of beloved versions of these. 1 minute ago, Free Bird said: Stormy Day probably an original as well? Yeah, that's also an option of course. The Stormy Monday link is just guessing out loud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s cool….it’d be awesome if this was somehow a catalyst for Clink getting involved with GNR somehow. Unlikely but you never know. 🤞 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These songs have been done in different ways. I hope Slash rather makes them work in his way rather than copy one of the many renditions already out there.

James Bond Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Seems fitting in a certain respect to have Slash and Brian Johnson team up after Axl got to have his fun with Angus. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds quite different from anything Slash has played before. Even his tone is remarkably different! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfacelessturtle Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Johnny Blackout on Bass! This gives me hope that Slash might work with Rod Jackson again... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRmello77 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I am over excited about this! Outside of rock blues is my favorite genre and of course Slash is my favorite guitarist. this combination is gold for me. I am mostly looking forward to hear his take with Billy Gibbons on Hoochie Coochie man, Muddy Waters is my favorite blues musician. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNfr Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 not a blues guy, not impressed, but I suppose they love doing that kind of stuff, and some people still listen to this kind of stuff so good for them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meadsoap Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 (edited) 26 minutes ago, janrichmond said: I just don't like his vocals anymore It's a well-known fact that studio singing is a lot different than live singing. I would think most people know that by now. Brian Johnson sounds much different in the track than usual, just as an obvious example. If that's you're reasoning, it doesn't make much sense.
