I think his best playing ever that cannot be touched or recreated was him in the 80s live while effed up on heroin. You can hear the accent of the drugged out Slash. Look into it, I'm not promoting drug use, but it is something I havent ever seen before in any other player. You wont hear this ever again. Everyone I show is just surprised

[@xXF1373Xx]

Man, there's just something about his stage presence that i can't quite put into words. His outfit, with the tophat and everything, and his playing make him feel like such a legend (which he obviously is). Pretty frickin' epic, if you ask me!

I remember when Gary Moore put out Still Got The Blues, it was a revelation. Going from Hard Rock-and he was a top tier Rock Guitarist-to straight-up blues was killer. The same with Gary Hoey, his Blues/Blues Rock albums are excellent. If Slash put out a blues album, I would buy it! Great stuff.

I have to admit that I was quite reluctant having Richard Fortus in the band back when they announced the reunion. Being the huge GN'R fan that I am, I was hoping for a comeback from both Izzy and Steven but Richard has proven to be an excellent rhythm player (not mentioning his lead skills on guitar) who fits Slash's style of playing. This part of the gig right here is a delight for guitar players and anyone who truly appreciate (live) music and that is why GN'R will always be relevant and sell out stadiums.

It’s great to hear so many Slash fans praising him for his blues playing.

[@rickytelfer2926]

It's been such a long time ago now since Slash played a full set of blues as he did on the road with blues ball circa 1996-1998 however there were no official recordings ever released from that venture & I've heard Slash say publicly before that he'd like to do more blues but whether or not that includes a full album & tour in the near future who knows.i think he should definitely put some blues out there & that should be his next focus after his round of current guns commitments come to an end.your thoughts?

​@@andrewbendahan1379 I don't know the venue, but looks like a typical Guns setup. Slash's stack is still on the right side. Left side should be Richard's stack. Middle is Duff's. So looks like a Fender bass amp next to the Gallien-Krueger. Duff also uses a Fender nowadays instead of only GK.
