This is a Jimi Hendrix tribute.. I so got away from Slash's feeling that i forgot who hendrix was. Seriously how everyone things that Slash is overrated they really dont know anything about him. The man just ROCKS!
No two guitar players are the same. Every person that plays has a different way of playing the same instrument. No two souls are alike so its hard to sound exactly like someone else. Slash did a great job on this and I'm sure it was a HUGE honor for him. Nobody plays like Jimi or Slash. I've seen Slash play live and he's one of the best. Great tribute to the best player ever.There was only one Hendrix and i wish he was here
Yep slash has a more raw metal feel as where Jimi had that soul and funk ,u tube prince his cover is the best I've ever heard ,prince was head and shoulders above most guitarist Gary Clark Jr. Said quote prince is the best GUITARIST in. The world and I fight someone over it ,prince has got that funk soul rock vibe ...
Well as a guitar player for almost 20years it's nice to see the human side of these amazing artists , page , hendrix, slash , this is what you sound like some days , take it or leave it , all those na Sayers can go pound salt ! These guys are just legends !
I always get the feeling Steve Winwood was trying to wrap it up sooner than Slash was and kept signalling to but Slash was channeling Jimi and kept going. I love Slash's improvisation on this. Jimi would dig it.
Jimi`s Soul, was in that Les paul brother when slash played it. RIP Mitch mitchell, you are the heartbeat of music that keeps on beating through out soulful drummers !
Slash! Greatest god of all time, his stances and poses omg, the neck straight up shredding pose and slouch down pose omg. He strike one pose and I dead 🥵🥵🥵 Slash!!!!
Slash played it like Slash, which is cool, I enjoyed it. If I played it, I would play it like me. If Jimi played it, he'd play it like Jimi. Every guitarist has his own unique signature. You either play the guitar well or you don't. You either enjoy the music emanating from a person's hands or you don't. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Music is intangible, you enjoy it in the moment or you miss it.
A tribute is not reproducing the object of said tribute, but showing their influence on you by playing their work how they made you feel Translation: Slash murdered this. So damn effortless.
Couldn't agree more. The point of a tribute is the particular artists own personal interpritation of the legend they are honouring. For my part, I thought this was amazing... a good tribute to the most influential axeman ever
Billy Roberts, wrote this sad, but wonderful song. He played it with an acoustic guitar,but Jimi It didn't upset her, on the contrary it filled her with emotions at points making her even more beautiful where possible. Thanks to all those artists who made this world better
Its a "tribute" not the original, lets all cool down and respect Slash's performance not knock 7 bells out of it.Jimi was Jimi, Slash is Slash, great entertainment in any case.
You have never been to a Prince concert. If you were, you drank too much beer. Long before he started doing his thing, he played in cover bands doing, Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, Cream, etc. The last time I saw him, he brought the roof down withe a version of Zep's Whole Lotta Love.
I hate when people start comparing different musicians like there're in sum kind of battle: Slash VS Hendrix / Axle VS Myles / etc ... Its so wrong, every musician plays a song as he knows it and as he feels it, with its own style and passion So, please, listen and enjoy.
Singer is Steve Winwood who actually knew Hendrix and played on his song VooDoo Chile- (not slight return), and the bassist is Billy Cox from Band of Gypsies!
@MrNirvanerd I see your point and i think no one can come close to jimi's work, but honestly its a tribute and its all about respecting the man that once was. A guitar god!
wow, ive seen and heard a lot of Slash's stuff but he was pulling shit out here that ive never seen him do. He's the GOAT to me. obviously Hendrix is a phenom, but Slash is so damn good.
I remember watching this and being transported into some sort of daydream to the point I thought I was actually watching Jimi himself - but aware it was Slash
If he played the same jimmy did then whats the point of doing the cover? I wouldn't have it any other way slash, you're awesome and thanks for making music
Hendrix is Hendrix, no one else can be Hendrix, and no one will ever be. In This Slash brutally ruined Hendrix's Hey Joe. Any one can cover,But Slash get your soul in to it.
"Hendrix is Hendrix, no one else can be Hendrix" Well uh, its a tribute if you haven't caught on, just so that your aware of these things. No one can imitate Slash either, but people still do it. You cannot recreate what has already been done. Anyone that thinks otherwise is very narrow minded. Also despite this being a well known Jimi song you do know that "Hey Joe" is a cover right? The original autorship is Billy Roberts in 1962. So really billy Robert is the original, but Jimi did a good recreation.
you gotta think though... slash probably just got up on stage and played, i bet others would put in lots of practice before the gig which is why it sounds good cos its natural
You know what's really weird? I was presenting a speech that I made about the Jimi Hendrix Experience on like the Thursday of the week that Mitch died. He died on the Wednesday. So, I was doing a little last-minute research to perfect my speech and I saw that Mitch Mitchell died!! I was like WHAT THE BOMB?! I had to change my speech because I said that Mitch Mitchell was the last living member of the Jimi Hendrix Experience.
@gladmanosadman Because it's not about "copying" Hendrix, they just picked Slash because he's one of the few guitarists who has his own unique style. It's not like oh lets pick someone who plays a fender because Jimi did, no you don't get it, guitar playing is all unique to who plays the instrument, not just pick someone because they have a similar style to Jimi.
cmoon mate, yes it's true he can't play like jimi..noone can play like jimi! but u can't go out calling slash lame..he's a guitar god as well, keep on rocking.
Slash's playing is nice but I think they just got him because of his image. They could've gotten someone who could do more justice to Hendrix. I can't imagine any guitarist turning down a Hendrix tribute gig lol
so like you i love the Blues too, but this is about who could play the blues better Slash or Prince, and i think even though neither, like we've BOTH established, can play it that decently, i would still pick Slash, and ive put forth reasons for why i think that
and as far as im aware in his Early days he was mainly doing Soul, Funk and R'B, but thats just me you are obviously quite a fan and im truly not against that, its opinion, but i still know quite a bit about the.....man, hes a unique musician
Slash is trying to put the original members forward, that's why his playing is very much controlled in this instance. You can feel Billy here grooving heavily with good old Mitch (RIP)
So to all people who think it would have been better if he used a strat. Jimi played a Gibson Les Paul, ES 335, and a Flying V. And another thing, that song was recorded with the 335
This is a Jimi Hendrix tribute.. I so got away from Slash's feeling that i forgot who hendrix was. Seriously how everyone things that Slash is overrated they really dont know anything about him. The man just ROCKS!
Andy Findikides slash is probably the MOST underrated guitarist still around.
@@kevinc1968 prince..? Even non guitarists know slash underrated plzzzzzz
Whoever thinks slash is overrated is never listened to any of his music
People who think that about Slash are hardcore c@nts!
Absolutely!
No two guitar players are the same. Every person that plays has a different way of playing the same instrument. No two souls are alike so its hard to sound exactly like someone else. Slash did a great job on this and I'm sure it was a HUGE honor for him. Nobody plays like Jimi or Slash. I've seen Slash play live and he's one of the best.

The world and I fight someone over it ,prince has got that funk soul rock vibe ...
Slash is as good as Jimi
It would be awesome having hendrix and slash play together.
OMG yes
They have. But yes, today, both...
Well as a guitar player for almost 20years it's nice to see the human side of these amazing artists , page , hendrix, slash , this is what you sound like some days , take it or leave it , all those na Sayers can go pound salt ! These guys are just legends !
different style, slash did it his way and damn its nice to hear
Un
this is what makes these artists great...
everyone has their own sound and tune...
slash rocked this one...
Mitch Mitchell and Billy Cox too! Wow, Im glad they got someone as talented as slash to do this. R.I.P. Jimi Hendrix and Mitch Mitchel.
I always get the feeling Steve Winwood was trying to wrap it up sooner than Slash was and kept signalling to but Slash was channeling Jimi and kept going. I love Slash's improvisation on this. Jimi would dig it.
Love Slash and can't wait to see if he does a tribute for Prince.
Utube prince cover Hendrix...prince has that funk jimi had ..prince cover is the best I've ever heard
Adam Levine does an Excellent rendition of Purple Rain.... Slash ... I don't think so
Slash tears it up man... Jimi would be so proud.
Let's face it guys, if not for Jimi, we wouldn't have all these amazing guitarists of today.
Jimi`s Soul, was in that Les paul brother when slash played it. RIP Mitch mitchell, you are the heartbeat of music that keeps on beating through out soulful drummers !
Slash! Greatest god of all time, his stances and poses omg, the neck straight up shredding pose and slouch down pose omg. He strike one pose and I dead 🥵🥵🥵 Slash!!!!
One of the last Guitar Gods left. This is perfect.
Stevie ray vaughan covers of jimi give me chills. Insane skills.
Slash played it like Slash, which is cool, I enjoyed it.
If I played it, I would play it like me.
If Jimi played it, he'd play it like Jimi.
Every guitarist has his own unique signature.
You either play the guitar well or you don't.
You either enjoy the music emanating from a person's hands or you don't.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Music is intangible, you enjoy it in the moment or you miss it.
let me call an expert in on this, he's my buddy he can tell you a little more about this
Dane-Michael Starwood nothing to say. your right.:)
As it should be 👍
A tribute is not reproducing the object of said tribute, but showing their influence on you by playing their work how they made you feel
Translation: Slash murdered this. So damn effortless.
Excellent tribute. Jimi is greatly missed.
Couldn't agree more. The point of a tribute is the particular artists own personal interpritation of the legend they are honouring. For my part, I thought this was amazing... a good tribute to the most influential axeman ever
this was shot for british music hall of fame. Nov 2005. got this on tape. the guy clapping his hands at the front through slash's solo was brian may.
Billy Roberts, wrote this sad, but wonderful song. He played it with an acoustic guitar,but Jimi It didn't upset her, on the contrary it filled her with emotions at points making her even more beautiful where possible. Thanks to all those artists who made this world better
Slah is one of the best gutiarist that this planet can see...You Rock SLASH
Now that's what I call a tribute
Slash..... speechless.... he's amazing.... not hendrix... just another genius
jimi u were one of the greatest, Slash ur great too. good video.
A tribute to Hendrix's talents and life with a guitarist without a tremolo bar is like the US Air Force without B52s.
Im happy to see mitch mitchell on drums and billy cox on bass just like in woodstock with jimi
I'm a new Slash fan and I'm 66 years old. Good job son.
When I clicked on this video I hoped to see Slash with a Strat (because it's a Jimi Hendrix tribute), but that probably was too much to wish for. :P
probably one of slash's best solos ever!
Slash is basically a living god as far as I'm concerned
Yeah .....simply ....slash ! I have no words !
go slash!!! ,and hendrix you should proud, there honoring you ..... and your still number
1 keep up the great work
This is back in the day when he smoked and did all sorts of good things. Imagine now, sober. What a God.
I was there that night and went to the after party.......what a night !! :-)
amazing...i love such guitarists that can rock out loud like slash but also are able to calme down and do some other stuff like this :)
Its a "tribute" not the original, lets all cool down and respect Slash's performance not knock 7 bells out of it.Jimi was Jimi, Slash is Slash, great entertainment in any case.
Look up prince doing red house prince has that funk that Jimi had prince cover is he best I've ever heard
You have never been to a Prince concert. If you were, you drank too much beer. Long before he started doing his thing, he played in cover bands doing, Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, Cream, etc. The last time I saw him, he brought the roof down withe a version of Zep's Whole Lotta Love.
Very , very nice job. Soulful.
Like if you think Slash killed it!!!
Amazing Mitch!!
RIP Mitch Mitchell,
realmente, Slash, tu me surpreende cada vez mais
O baterista é ian paice do dee purple??
Winwood is such an amazing vocalist!
Damn good ! slash at his best.
Very nice cover and improv by mr. slash!
wow..what a tribute...that rocked!!!
thank you so much for this video !!!!!! HENDRIX RULES FOREVER !!!!
I hate when people start comparing different musicians like there're in sum kind of battle: Slash VS Hendrix / Axle VS Myles / etc ... Its so wrong, every musician plays a song as he knows it and as he feels it, with its own style and passion So, please, listen and enjoy.

@MrNirvanerd I see your point and i think no one can come close to jimi's work, but honestly its a tribute and its all about respecting the man that once was. A guitar god!
hendrix is unique. today there is no guitarist like him
bye from Argentina
I like some of the old rock. And this song of mister Hendrix is great. 🎶 😌 This version has a better guitar solo than the original! 💥 🎸
0:04 OMG IT IS DAVID GILMOUR !!!!!
nice tribute...there can only be ONE Jimi! nice tribute!
They dude came on the guitar !! AWESOME !!
wow, ive seen and heard a lot of Slash's stuff but he was pulling shit out here that ive never seen him do. He's the GOAT to me. obviously Hendrix is a phenom, but Slash is so damn good.
RIP Mitch
"If I dont see no more in this world i'll meet ya in the next one an dont be late dont be late"
I remember watching this and being transported into some sort of daydream to the point I thought I was actually watching Jimi himself - but aware it was Slash
If he played the same jimmy did then whats the point of doing the cover? I wouldn't have it any other way slash, you're awesome and thanks for making music
beautiful, Slash sounds unstoppable there
Hendrix is Hendrix, no one else can be Hendrix, and no one will ever be.
In This Slash brutally ruined Hendrix's Hey Joe.
Any one can cover,But Slash get your soul in to it.
"Hendrix is Hendrix, no one else can be Hendrix"

So much bullshit in one comment.
The Bass line is so good.
Though this song was MADE FOR A Fender...this is one of the best I've ever heard
one from so mutch people which is autorized to play jimis notes ... the ash from the cigarette is amzing - never falls
yeah i agree...this is well done!!!! 5 stars man
I do love one of the great guitar pickers they are 😊
Slash is a great one too
BIG SHOUTS to Billy Cox. The ONLY LIVING branch of the Hendrix camp. #BandOfGypsys
you gotta think though... slash probably just got up on stage and played, i bet others would put in lots of practice before the gig which is why it sounds good cos its natural
Slash is best, luv u slash
once again slash owns
Slash is the NR.1 Guitarist alive.. cuz Jimi is dead :( But they are both legends. love em both ;D
You know what's really weird? I was presenting a speech that I made about the Jimi Hendrix Experience on like the Thursday of the week that Mitch died. He died on the Wednesday. So, I was doing a little last-minute research to perfect my speech and I saw that Mitch Mitchell died!! I was like WHAT THE BOMB?! I had to change my speech because I said that Mitch Mitchell was the last living member of the Jimi Hendrix Experience.
And doing all this on a Gibson, not a strat. Amazing.
slash is the best
i think this is like the best cover of any song ive ever heard i think and holy balls... mitch is still alive? damn hes fucking old
@gladmanosadman Because it's not about "copying" Hendrix, they just picked Slash because he's one of the few guitarists who has his own unique style. It's not like oh lets pick someone who plays a fender because Jimi did, no you don't get it, guitar playing is all unique to who plays the instrument, not just pick someone because they have a similar style to Jimi.
His work in GnR was much better than anything he done after that imho. Same for Axl.
Steve Windwood and Jimi were boys back in the day
Mitch Mitchell, The Jimi Hendrix Experience drummer. The bass player Noel Redding died a few years ago.
Best solo ever!
@daveh114 ....steve winwood he played keyboards on voodoo chile and voodoo child (slight return ) on the electric ladyland album
slash, hendrix and page are gods
F**k yeah!
Slash should’ve played a strat for jimi but u can’t have slash without the Les Paul. Good show
cmoon mate, yes it's true he can't play like jimi..noone can play like jimi!
but u can't go out calling slash lame..he's a guitar god as well, keep on rocking.
Nicely put!!!
Slashhhhhhhhhhhh..........we are not worthyyyyyyyyy.........
Très belle reprise bravo
Slash's playing is nice but I think they just got him because of his image. They could've gotten someone who could do more justice to Hendrix. I can't imagine any guitarist turning down a Hendrix tribute gig lol
I think people forget that when jimi hendrix played the guitar in this song he was also...singing!
Might still be a cover of a cover but hell, gotta ove the blues, makes you fell down but brings you up at the same time
so like you i love the Blues too, but this is about who could play the blues better Slash or Prince, and i think even though neither, like we've BOTH established, can play it that decently, i would still pick Slash, and ive put forth reasons for why i think that
and as far as im aware in his Early days he was mainly doing Soul, Funk and R'B, but thats just me you are obviously quite a fan and im truly not against that, its opinion, but i still know quite a bit about the.....man, hes a unique musician
Slash was paying his respect to jimi.. Not trying to outshine him. You guys are ridiculous
Slash is trying to put the original members forward, that's why his playing is very much controlled in this instance. You can feel Billy here grooving heavily with good old Mitch (RIP)
@VelvetRoses2000 well, it seems that Winwood played with Hendrix in the Electric Ladyland album, playing the organ on Voodoo Child
Wow, Steve Winwood, Mitch Mitchell and Slash, good, but Hendrix still Hendrix
Give it up its a fuckin TRIBUTE
So to all people who think it would have been better if he used a strat. Jimi played a Gibson Les Paul, ES 335, and a Flying V. And another thing, that song was recorded with the 335
Slash did Jimi proud!
