Slash has improved so much since GnR's prime. He never insults any other guitarist, only compliments. Yet gets tons of hate himself for no reason (although the love far outweighs the hate). He keeps his head down and keeps working. In interviews he doesn't talk about how great he is, or the iconic solos he's recorded. He talks about what he's working on at the moment. He doesn't like to be hailed as an icon, or treated like he's some huge celebrity. I've met him on three different occasions as I was working two events he was at in LA and one in London. We casually chatted each time for a good bit. He is the most down to earth, hard working man you will meet. The hate just blows me away.
My buddy did the sound for a Slash and Myles Kennedy concert years ago in Edmonton. I'd love to meet him one day. I've seen him in concert 3 times. I did meet Gilby Clarke once at his show in 2007. We got to talk for a few minutes. He was pretty cool. But meeting Slash would be insane.
Slash doesn't makes musical mistakes, only experimental improvisations;) Most musicians or actors don't run each other down either, its simple mutual respect!
@@juanpecina7953 i believe the mistake was him accidently changing key near the end, the transition didn't sound purposeful, but he still kept playing. It happens when stays playing fast while going up the neck. A few lessons on music theory makes this noticeable .
Slash is a hell of a guitarist. Not because he's the most technically proficient (although his technique is still really damn good). His feel, distinction, and creativity make him the guitarist he is.
Beck, Satriani, SRV and even Hendrix I would put ahead. It’s about the feel and ability at the same time. Slash was my hero growing up. But as you get older you realise real ability that is great. Tommy Emmanuel is the greatest guitarist alive… but have you heard of him? Sometimes that song you like singing too clouds your judgement. It’s similar to say Rolling Stone putting Kurt Cobain as a great when my baby finger has more talent. Lindsay Buckingham was at 100! Watch him play Big Love on his own. You’ll never see Kurt even begin to be able to play that. Try learning a Spanish Rumba. Took me 10 years to perfect it. And I’ve been playing since I was 5. But that’s okay, I will always love the music, you just have to be objective when comparing the skill and talent along with feel and ability. Ciao.
Why you talking about his feel, distinction and creativity when he has none of those things? 😂 Joking, I'm being too harsh. But seriously he is sooooo over rated. Probably the most over rated guitarist of all time IMO. He's all show with no actual substance.
@@DanFernandesBenficaSaintI can't think of any established guitarist that I dislike more than Slash. I've seen young UA-cam guitarists with more technical ability plus all the other things that make a great guitarist
Mistake is right near the end when he starts shredding - he does a slide up the neck and hits a sour note, but the transition was flawless. Wouldn’t even call it a mistake all things considered lol.
Exactly, since a lot of us guitarist now a days throw in part of the scale that is not the traditional scale. I go outside of the box continuously and hit a note here and there that may be a tad sour, but it adds a little character
It’s not a mistake it’s flow, he will hit sour notes on purpose to break up the monotony, he does make mistakes but only a spot where he misses 1 note it sounded like , he missed the string with his pick, but mistakes sound good too when you play this good , he is like a serious living legend
went to the show my first real concert in 15 years, it was amazing in Wellington, good vibes good people and happy times, beer was expensive as always but loved it
Everyone who acts like they know what "mistake" he made but won't answer in the comments. Why do you feel the need to try and sound smart to strangers on the Internet?
@@camronchlarson3767he did multiple bends that fell short of key, went off key in his slide and had to quickly reverse slide to cover it, and in the shred he hit the wrong position changr which made it a jarring key change. Still a great guitarist, but don't go meat riding him too hard bro, he's still human and it's OK for humans to make mistakes.
Better in what terms? Technically? Maybe. But when you compare his live performances the past years with the UYI tour back then...he doesn't even come close to this magic. Most of the time it's pretty uninspiring what he does.
Eh, it's one off key note. Always a danger of a little slip up when you're improvising. But agreed he recovered so fast it's barely note worthy. Sometimes, the wrong notes are the fun ones, it anyone asks, just call it Jazz! 😉😝
I heard one, he hit the wrong note but bent the string to achieve the note he was looking for. It blended better that way than to stop and hit the right one.
He is, without a doubt the most over rated guitarist that there has ever been. He sounds like someone's drunk dad decides to pick up the guitar for the first time in 15 years. He's sloppy and not creative at all.
Slash the greatest guitarist of all time I’m a big fan boy for his playing and his notes are really tuff to learn and play for beginners. Beautiful leads #GNR His is an outstanding guitarist and perfect rock star 🎉
I've seen ways to simplify it and I've also seen Tony Hawk the skateboarder miss an olly. So yeah keep practicing and learn to incorporate mistakes into the programme.
@@lenni_3812 in reality he if you have a musical ear you can tell when notes don’t match together it’s a mistake I can hear it loud and clear but like I said you need to have listen carefully how the notes match obviously is a solo souu you can’t expect a perfect performance with no backup plan what so ever
I was on a cruise and Slash was sitting at a table, being a idiot that’s not met a lot of famous people I said Hello Mr. Slash and froze, he smiled said hello back and keep on rock’n, I smiled and walked away, pretty sure that has happened to him before, Slash if you read this, I wanted to say I appreciate you talent and hard work as a artist and showman.
This is Slash! He noodles all the time. I've been a fan since I discovered GNR in high school in '91. Stole an AFD cassette tape from a record store rack and never look back 😂. I recorded the Live in Paris (the best GNR live show in my opinion, mind you) concert on MTV and butchered that vhs trying to learn Civil War and Patience (wild horses intro). All from what I've learned he is very unique player that never plays the same song especially solos😅. He could never duplicate his own songs note for note. It's what makes him SLASH!
People be asking "where the mistake?" but that truely shows the distiction of an average musician compared to a great musician. If you can make the mistake sound good, no one will notice
No it's just showing nearly everyone here to be not good musicians at all - beginners at best. Because there is no mistake! For one he was ad lib noodling. And for two...the overbend was deliberate.
@Valikaya you mean where the video cut off in the middle of his phrasing making it sound like he resolved the phrase at the beginning of some hammer ons & pull offs
@@MrMd5555 yeah bro just hammer ons and pull offs… there’s an art to “just hammer ons and pull offs”… not many people in the world can do them… that’s what notes are you know 1/16 notes more like 1/32 notes on that phrase… just have to put you back inperspective. I’m going to go practice some now☝🏻🎸
I've seen slash at a bar of the road where I lived in St cloud Florida it was the time it was playing usually one and two he was out of town chilling until the concert but then I sent him 2023 August 23rd Charlotte coliseum it was awesome❤
He is still an icon… Lol and we were all two days and 10 minutes from being in his presence which would’ve motivated us to rock and roll baby. Not counting the concerts were talking in person baby
Slash is the essence of a stage artist. Ready to play the album stuff, but always focused on feel the vibe and playing according to that. Improvising is WAY better than just blindly playing a song. Real artists should know about that.
u can see the moment where, right before the bluesy lick, he looks down at his hand like "wtf did I just do" then he just shrugged it of n kept fuckin going folks, this is a prime example of how to play off a mistake live
For those who want to say they can’t hear a mistake, it’s near the end when he is climbing up the neck. He clearly plays notes that are “out” and then he slides in and out of notes after that run that aren’t “target” notes. It’s obvious he didn’t do it on purpose but he goes over them quickly and recovers well
Saw Aerosmith a number of years ago, I think it was around Just Push Play (for context). And they did this thing where they walked up to a second stage in the general seating area (which was pretty rad of them). Anyways, they were getting into and Joe Perry starts into "Dream On", and for a half a second forgot how to play the intro. Everyone just looked at him with "wtf, Joe?!". Was kind of funny -- it happens to the best!
Huh? Mistake? If we have to brutally critic then maybe a flattish bend & some interesting passing notes - but that inspired playing is epic, hows the riff played under the harmonic, plus how spectacularly raw is that tone. Legend.

Nobody knows how much good a wrong note adds to a solo
The joke is you just need to play the mistake twice but it's true more often than not

There's about 4 or 5 mistakes.
Some bad bends and a full accidental wrong position change making a jarring off key bit that sounded horrendous.
