Slash (without his iconic top hat and playing a Gibson Custom 1963 Firebird) joins Eric Gayles during his opening set for a sweet cover of Jimi Hendrix's Purple Haze. This happened at 5:22pm, which was 8 minutes before the show was scheduled to start. A LOT of people missed out on this song by not getting there early!

1. Parchman Farm Blues (Bukka White cover)
2. Killing Floor (Howlin' Wolf cover)
3. Born Under A Bad Sign (Albert King cover)

5. Key To The Highway (Booker T & the MG's cover)
6. Hoochie Coochie Man (Muddy Waters cover)
7. Papa Was a Rolling Stone (The Temptations cover)
8. Stormy Monday (T-Bone Walker cover)
9. The Pusher (Hoyt Axton cover)
10. Metal Chestnut
11. Cross Road Blues (Robert Johnson cover)
12. ^Big Legged Woman (Freddy King cover)

Slash, one of the most iconic guitar stars, recognizes the incredible prowess of Eric Gales. More people need to know about Eric.

I have seen Eric Gales and let me tell you he is unbelievable. It is a crime that he isn't as well known as others like Slash, Joe Bonamassa or John Mayer. No disrespect to those gentlemen but Eric is one of the most original voices on the instrument you could ever hope to see.

These guys sing way better than Eric. Eric is a bad mf on guitar. U never hear Slash singing, Eric gets 100 💯 for guitar playing and minus 85 for his singing. If he plays blues, his singing is minimal, so you're just wait for the singing to stop so the guitar can riff. Mayer, you shouldn't even compare the two. Excellent songwriter singer and guitar player.

@dropclutch1 Ай бұрын

Totally agree. Eric can play circles around Slash. Slash's public persona is as a guitar god, so he has a lot to lose by getting shown up by someone most non-musicians don't know. It's all good fun though. Eric is respectful enough to hold back a little, and Slash is gracious enough to share his fame to bring up the newer generation of guitar gods. 🤘

I met him when I went to a small bar in Ms. to see him after reading about him in a guitar magazine. The bar was called Muddy Waters. This was before the internet. lol He was probably barely 20 years old and was just as good back then. Very nice guy too. Just like many in the world, he’s had to battle against addiction but it’s made him a wise and very humble man. He seems to be doing much better these days. 🙏🏻
