And it's a blessing to know that there are always interesting and dedicated young players emerging somewhere, discovering how enjoyable and expressive the guitar can be in skilled hands and played from the heart! Let's keep it going!
Some of the most enjoyable playing by Slash I've heard. Playing quietly actually amplifies the impact of his playing by way of increased subtly and dynamics.
I love that Slash never felt he had to mimic EVH in his time, since that was the thing to do in the ‘80s if you were in a rock or metal band. He’s probably my favorite post ‘70s rock guitarist. He doesn’t really over do-it.
5:22 That Middle Finger 6:03 „Ok, now my real name is Saul“ „SUCK WHAT?“ „It’s Saul“ „You gotta talk into the hearing aid... AH DONT SHOUT AT ME“ 😂😂 Les Paul, an Ass and a Hell of a Legend!! Rest In Peace
No doubt. The "subtle" finger from LP by way of adjusting his glasses after that was epic. Slash can hang with anybody apparently, although BB made him nervous. haha
Slash is sooo diverse.. At one time he will give you hard rock, but at the same time he can play the blues. He is everything i love about guitar players
See, Slash...he get’s it 😎 he plays to match his group and the song. He let’s Les shine and shines himself as well. And he plays what’s being played while he’s in it. Versatile of course, but that’s a big part of what being a true musician is all about. Well done fellas, and you can tell they really enjoyed that moment. 🤘👍
My mom sings and her husband plays blues guitar. They both had the opportunity to perform on stage with Les at his club a few years before his passing.
Sweet symphony of sound! Never realized Slash had it like that. You can tell they admire each other. Les is so happy. That 5:10-5:13 mark was righteous!
Truth be told its unlikely the old boy had heard much of slashes work, they came from very different generations. But Les Paul just loved music, and was always happy to let a young pup have some limelight, so lots of respect from the old boy, and obviously a guy like Slash would have revered Les Paul.
I swear I hear these guys and I cant stop getting teary eye, Les Paul RIP , GNR always my Fav all time fav band but to see Slash with the Master him self and jam like that, SUBLIME
What a musical goldmine this collection is of all of Les`s pals joining him onstage. Not only is it loose and filled with funny banter, there are musical moments that are truly heaven on earth to me. Real magic happens at times that couldn't be captured in any other way but through raw unrehearsed performances such as these. Thanks for these uploads. Pure gold!
The best I ever heard Slash play. He's also clean and doesn't have 100w Marshall Jubilees set on eleven. With GNR he had to go with the flow, but we're hearing his real playing here. Good job Slash, and in front of a legend!!!
Parker Jansen what the fuck is the point in you sounding like a smart-mouthed pre-teen? I said "post-seventies" meaning 80's, 90's, 2000's, and present. Post-seventies means anything that came AFTER the 70's. That includes eras past the 80's as well. So yes, that's the point in me saying "post-seventies". Get it?
The SRV of Rock. Stevie was fucking possesse3d though man. I love myself guns and hard players but the Hendrix covers by themselves propels him above almost anyone Ive ever witnessed in a lifetime.
That was beautiful. I personally think it sounded great, opposing what some say below. It had a really nice jazz blues feel to it and they had a great connection
If I can be have as pleasant and fun Les is at that age I’ll be happy. What a fantastic brilliant man. Just a joy to be around. Not many people like around anymore.
Saul Hudson (Slash) is one hell of a rocker, but its obvious this is where hes at home. blues is typicaly played 3 fingered whis is his signature style of pickin. real talent this huy has, matched by very few in the industry.
Before Les started losing dexterity and motion in his hands and fingers he was amazing to watch play. His style was incredible and you can say he was an early precursor to shredding.
2 legends, one that endorsed and help build and design Gibson's first electric guitar, and one that (to me,, growing up) made the Gibson Les Paul electric guitar more iconic than Les Paul did lol
Sm-o-o-o-o-th. I just clicked over from the video of Zakk & Les (he was out of his league). Slash is matching the style, timbre , rhythm and tone of both Les and the song. Just look at how engaged Les is throughout the tune.
Hi Chris, I live in SE Wisconsin and drive through Waukesha from time to time. Been a big Les fan since childhood as my parents had Les Paul & Mary Ford albums (I have them now). 'Had to go to the museum when it opened. Speaking of Waukesha, are you familiar with Wisconsin's other electric guitar virtuoso, Greg Koch? He is a phenomenal player of multiple genres. Must be something in the local water to produce such talent over multiple generations.If it wasn't for the eleventh hour, I wouldn't get anything done.
I've been on a few forums or vidoes where Slash gets panned a lot. Seems like its the cool thing to do, but having grown up with GNR and seeing him play, we are lucky to have him in our generation. He's one of the best to hit the seen post british invasion for sure.
He's one of those guys that's just himself. He truly loves playing the guitar and will never stop. He's also quite humble and intelligent. - This coming from someone who isn't even a fan. I just have a respect for the guy.
i agree, a lot of people say slash is an overrated player because he doesn't sweep or shred like eric johnson for example (not bashing eric), but he plays with such feeling and he plays how he feels and his sound is recognisable the first note he plays. i've turned on the radio before and snakepit was playing, and although i didn't recognise the song i knew straight away it was slash.
what a guitarist les was! never mind his innovations for a second but just his knowloedge on the guitar and the low impedence pickups he used and just his sound note selection... amazing, would be no slash eddie van halen , jimmy page etc without him
Can only hope anyone who has ever owned an electric guitar, especially a Les Paul, can truly respect this genius. I swear to God, I had a Les Paul that was underwater due to a flood. Once I dried it out, it was as good as new.
Never been a huge Slash fan but I will say, he can play the fuck outta some blues. Damn!..........which I guess that should have been obvious to me. I have heard plenty of Guns and velvet
Changed my opinion of slash instantly. He's a legend and all but never really took to him - I just saw his gimmick. Here, I saw the person. Why didn't I see this much earlier? Damn.
Les was truly havin a good time in this clip, that didn’t always happen 😳. Lots of fun to watch, Slash has a good blues background that translates well to his rock playin. He was taking Les back to the old days when he would burn up the neck.

Lesssssss, Paul
Please

If they swapped guitars, it's be Slash with Les Paul's Les Paul Les Paul with Les Paul with Slash's Slash Les Paul
Always astounding how Mr Les Paul kept in touch with younger guitarists. R.I.P.
And it's a blessing to know that there are always interesting and dedicated young players emerging somewhere, discovering how enjoyable and expressive the guitar can be in skilled hands and played from the heart! Let's keep it going!
You can tell how much Les Paul likes Slash’s playing. You can always tell. He really liked him.
At 5:00 Les tried to end the tune and Slash refuses to end it. Les gave him a look like -- "WTF did you not hear me try to end it??" lol
Haha flipped him off too lol
Spinal Tap moment.
Some of the most enjoyable playing by Slash I've heard. Playing quietly actually amplifies the impact of his playing by way of increased subtly and dynamics.
Slash playing with B.B. King at the Royal Albert Hall is something you might enjoy, JMMcC69...
I love that Slash never felt he had to mimic EVH in his time, since that was the thing to do in the ‘80s if you were in a rock or metal band. He’s probably my favorite post ‘70s rock guitarist. He doesn’t really over do-it.
Yea it is the same with Eric Johnson
The very 1st time I've heard a comment such as yours! Very nice indeed! Well put.
Jimmy Page is why
5:22
That Middle Finger
6:03
„Ok, now my real name is Saul“
„SUCK WHAT?“
„It’s Saul“
„You gotta talk into the hearing aid... AH DONT SHOUT AT ME“
😂😂 Les Paul, an Ass and a Hell of a Legend!! Rest In Peace
I don’t think Les is a fan..........
The best a man can get a middle finger from the Les Paul
Suck what??
SUCKTWAT!!!😂😂
les was so funny man so many videos like this of him playing with eddie , keith richards u name it , hes always hilarious and witty in them
It's rare to see Les have a conversation through his guitar with another. Him and Slash were on fire!
especially at the 5:13 mark! magic moment right there
No doubt. The "subtle" finger from LP by way of adjusting his glasses after that was epic. Slash can hang with anybody apparently, although BB made him nervous. haha
I think Les was just happy to see and hear his invention played by a superbly talented guitarist.
YEAH, THEY WERE!! 😂😎
@@droid1963 Now whom do you mean? I see Les an the other guy.
Les Paul, One of the most iconic guitarists. Respect.
Slash is extremely talented and his solos always have sensible melodic part and good phrasing
and he also delivers that on Ozzys new album

Just superb. Absolutely talent, old meets new, master and disciple. Music is beautiful.

The comment award goes to you.
Slash is sooo diverse.. At one time he will give you hard rock, but at the same time he can play the blues. He is everything i love about guitar players
two different generations of greats, vibing together. i like how slash is pretty much ignoring the crowd and actually looking at les and his hands.
See, Slash...he get’s it 😎 he plays to match his group and the song. He let’s Les shine and shines himself as well. And he plays what’s being played while he’s in it.

The first time Les Paul heard Slash play he said "You're going to be really good once you learn to play that thing"
Slashes reply? "Thanks God".

I think Les wore the same shirt every time I saw him at the Iridium. And he was always just as full of smiles and good humor along with great music!
Slash plays the blues very, very well. He conjures up Page styled licks along with the true masters. Well done, sir!
One of the best Les Paul and guest videos on here . They lock in and stay locked in .

Slash bending the LP neck in front of the LP eyes... if it's not a bravure act idk what it is LOL

Slash... one of the few post-seventies rockers that can actually play the blues.
Dagger 323 what the fuck is the point of saying post seventies. Just say 80s

Slash can and has played everything, when I first heard some years ago and saw what he could do I was amazed...
Steve ray vaugh
Les was such a classy player! R.I.P.

Hahaha that ending. Les Paul is amazing! :D
les paul, we love you!
Les could hardly move his fingers at this point in his life yet he is soooo melodic!
Before Les started losing dexterity and motion in his hands and fingers he was amazing to watch play. His style was incredible and you can say he was an early precursor to shredding.
Sorry for the reply to old post, but I do agree Les was a precursor to shredding, along with, Mr. Chet Atkins
totally agree
His fireworks on How High are phenomenal - but I love the maturity & confidence in these later years (3:30 for example - just 2 perfect notes)
Les Paul was a music visionary. Slash plays so respectfully and holds back and simply plays in the pocket with Les. Slash = pure class here.
That guitar-bomber at 0:09 is like; "Can I play?"
Les Paul: "What are you doing?... No..."
Guitar-bomber: "Awh, k bye..."
I think he was a member of the rhythm section. Lol
Yeah that’s a funny observation, but he’s actually playing rhythm throughout the whole song lol
Blues, the international jam language! Les is at home with Django gypsy jazz as well...
The Pleasure they are feeling is amazing to see! Great!!!!
If they did an album together. Just imagine what it would have been like....
chris lentz Why the fuck do you keep linking the website it's annoying as fuck
The reverence for each other is palpable to be exact!
2 legends, one that endorsed and help build and design Gibson's first electric guitar, and one that (to me,, growing up) made the Gibson Les Paul electric guitar more iconic than Les Paul did lol
And slash was not using a original gibson , lol hahahaha
Sm-o-o-o-o-th. I just clicked over from the video of Zakk & Les (he was out of his league). Slash is matching the style, timbre , rhythm and tone of both Les and the song. Just look at how engaged Les is throughout the tune.
That Zakk vid was a trainwreck.
Jimmy B Agreed. This was so much better than what Zakk did with Les. Smooth as a muthafucka.
Zakk was a disrepectful tool during the whole thing and just did his mindless penta shred. This Slash fellow seems to know the score
Jimmy B slash fits in a lot better than zakk because he's more bluesy and zakk is more hard rock.

So this is Les Paul with Slash with Les Paul?
Slash might be using his fake Gibson which he used when he was in Guns and Roses.
orlock20 The Derrig LP doesn't leave the studio anymore. He plays all Gibson LPs now. Has for quite a long time.
The Blinking Ghost that's his 87' les paul
Les Paul with a Les Paul with Slash with a Les Paul
this is when paul meets saul
Rock history right here, love it.
They are talking to each other with their guitars, and it's amazing.
Slash has the FEEL for blues
Slash is all about the blues
as one great musician said once.
" you dont need a lot of notes or superspeed yoy just need the right note and right speed"
Thank you Chris for sharing your videos of this tribute with Mr Les Paul.
I've been on a few forums or vidoes where Slash gets panned a lot. Seems like its the cool thing to do, but having grown up with GNR and seeing him play, we are lucky to have him in our generation. He's one of the best to hit the seen post british invasion for sure.
They both seemed to really enjoy playing together. Love it!
It'a Awesome. ^_^ I love Les Paul & Slash.
A legend and a living legend! RIP Mr Les Paul! 🕶
Grandpa with grandson jam together ❤
Of all these Les videos, this is my favorite!! They connected. Playing for each other, not the crowd. Both seemed to have a ball
What a great video and beautiful to watch and listen to.
As a guitarist, I thought Slash was a lil' more of image- all show but he shows substance.
I've been wrong before..... KUDOS SLASH
He's one of those guys that's just himself. He truly loves playing the guitar and will never stop.
He's also quite humble and intelligent. - This coming from someone who isn't even a fan. I just have a respect for the guy.
Yes, Slash is a very good player and a cool guy.
The reason why Slash get's so much hate is because they only know him from sweet child of mine..
i agree, a lot of people say slash is an overrated player because he doesn't sweep or shred like eric johnson for example (not bashing eric), but he plays with such feeling and he plays how he feels and his sound is recognisable the first note he plays. i've turned on the radio before and snakepit was playing, and although i didn't recognise the song i knew straight away it was slash.
Jimi I totally agree with you, although he did shred in his 2010 self titled album 'SLASH' and it was so brilliant.
Love the groove
And another great one Chris.. Thanks..

OUVINDO ATÉ AGORA EM 2023..!!!😎😎😎😎😎
Thanks a lot for this upload. I have to admit that when it comes to Slash playing blues I prefer when he plays with BB King in Royal Albert Hall.

SO SO GOOD GOOD !!!
Two legends
Nobody plays like slash. He reinvented guitars solos all over again
Les Paul in his prime was a beast on Guitar!
Slash is so kind😊
Sr les paul... mesmo com idade avançada e dificuldades nas maos... brincava e encantava como ninguém... gratidao. Amo slash
It must have been a special occasion since Saul wore a different hat.
What an honor for both of them it must have been.

Slash is a great overall guitarist. Rest In Peace Mr. Les Paul
3 Les Paul's and slash
Rare slash, killin' the blues
This is why Slash is special. With other guitarist Les just kinda listen to them, but with Slash he jams with him and had a great time.....
