Nile Rodgers & Chic with Slash - LeFreak

[onesadsong]

@meebot He didn't take over the show in MJ's concerts. It was a part of the show done intentionally. Check each different gigs, it's all the same. Slash acts like he doesn't want to leave the stage, MJ calls the security guy and stuff. It's SHOW. Damn, people love to hate really. Do not talk if you don't know and it's "at least" not "at lease".

[meeboot]

at LEASE SLASH did not try to take over the show like he did in michael's concert.

[MrFunkFu]

Slash is wack, thanks for ruining the song Mr.

[Quad8track]

Looks like Slash and Nile Rodgers still has a lot of bills to pay....

[abrahamlp91]

slash solo was like wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah­wahwah...............

[sightsizemethod]

santana would do a nice job!!

[finzic]

Hmm, is it me, or ... where did Slash think he was, on a metal festival stage? I really don't think this solo has much to do with the song...

[beachhutblues]

Throw that Les Paul away and go back to your perspex strat Nile!

[Mycutie996665]

Here closes the circle ;-)

[calinder403]

is Abe, Jr. drumming?

[skincandy1]

Slash...turn the stupid distortion off when your playing rhythm! lol

[MrKevT1]

Slash playing his messy sloppy shit all over a classic. Very overrated guitarist.

[kramer87]

@MrKevT1 THUMBS UP! Slash knows 4 licks and plays them all with a distortion pedal through a marshall stack stomping every note to death with that shitty wah wah pedal. Probably the most overated guitar player EVER.

[MrKevT1]

@kramer87 You're not wrong there partner!

[TheAlexgunns]

@kramer87 Totally agree m8, no subtlety at all, and when he started playing the rhythm I almost threw up : (

[minxel16]

@TheAlexgunns veterans vs. noobs on youtube-one of the best things ever :)

[TheAlexgunns]

@minxel16 how do you always find where I've commented on youtube????

[minxel16]

@TheAlexgunns it comes up on my homepage-abit like facebook-AND i can see what youve written as minxel16 on other peoples pages... no escaping alex

[1manfactory]

wetting my pants....

[vitruviusr]

I like the bassline more than what Slash is attempting here..

[hevog]

slash's guitar playing is pathetic and doesn't fit in at all. slash, you better stick to your stuff. no offence meant though.

DISCO-FUNK RULES

THE BEST MUSICIANS ARE IN THE DISCO-FUNK CATEGORY AS WELL AS THE BEST VOCALIST.

IT'S TIME FOR THIS MUSIC TO MAKE A STRONG COMEBACK!!!!!

[Thirdgen83]

That guitar solo was nothing to write home about. I'd much rather listen to Nile Rodgers play guitar than Slash...

[ALFREDOAGUIRRE100]

Me muero por la cantante mas jovencita , la morena, divina, super sexi como baila. Este grupo es un Icono de la musica americana. Nike Rodgers es un genio, lastima de la muerte de su compañero, pero su estilo perdura por siempre. Sigan haciendonos disfrutar de esas bellas epocas de nuestra adolescencia. Todavia tengo el Disco en Acetato.

[MarkStrat]

Hahaha. 'Slash' made me laugh. Funky it ain't.

[madFlam1]

i didn't know slash could funk

[PianoGesang]

Slash ruins the groove!

[MsRonan2009]

q solo da porraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaa

[yanzki19]

nice voicing

[sofilovesmusik]

only slash could make this song rock even more :) yeah slash!!!!

[piezoelettrico]

With all due respect to Slash, he's got nothing to do in the party. Just not his place.

He's good though...... but in an other context.

Great Nile!!!

[kylie3451]

Les Paul or Strat, Nile's rhythm is still funky-azz.

[rosatijazz23]

hahahahaha!!! : D this is awsome!!

i never knew Slash could get so FUNKY!!

[StephLeGratteux]

SLASH IS THE MAN !

[Balue280]

I don't know what people are complaining about I think slash fit in quite well. I think it kind of enhanced it a bit not saying that he made it better or anything like that but he certainly rocked it. Just saying that his solo sounds just fine and fit in just fine.

[hollidayevery]

@Balue280 i agree!

[Hitmanfan91]

Amazing performance. Bit skepticle of the solo though. What he played was great but too much distortion and too loud. Hate to say it but lead guitar is the least common instrument in Funk, its all about the rhythm. In Rock the rhythm guitar isn't important but in Funk its way more important than lead guitar. Any lead/solo probably comes from a keyboard of sorts, or a sax. Lead guitar in Funk has to be clean.

[fakurb]

If you are a good guitar player you'll fit anywhere...

GREAT SOLO SLASH!!

[flex280]

stop hating,Slash laid down absolutely wicked riffs and fit in perfectly. POWER TO DA POSITIVE PPL

[sigsegv11]

I'm a little undecided on Slash's solo. We all know Slash can shred, and he definitely held back here.. that shows he has respect for the music. I think the distortion was a bit much, but Slash still has to represent himself somehow.

And, as always, Jerry B lays down a SICK groove.

[flex280]

there are 2 vids of this. slash did lay back on this one. the other vids has the ladies dressed diferently and slash did his nasty thing

[flex280]

in the other vid the lead singer lays against slash as he plays.

[mauri3660]

motherfucker solo men

crazy crazy crazy

[Haatsjah]

slash is great player but doesnt fit here

[blueboy7948]

i turned that off after about 20 seconds of Slash f**king that track up

[manitate]

slash always take it , like it is ... what a champion of guitar !!!!!

[kmichelle001]

Slash. All right brotha' .

[hawkwing171]

fucking imba solo!!! great work slash!!

[telekev1]

There is a dvd of James Brown performing in Vegas. The 2 guitarist is that band would make hash of Slash.

Saw Mr. Rodgers at the Hollywood Bowl tonight...he's THE MAN!!!

[sheLovesG]

I'm sorry, I love Slash but he's clueless and walking all over it here. It just doesn't work.

[bigb934]

true words

[gertjanstorme]

i just ate ten meters away from nile rodgers and he gave me his guitar pick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chiknfulio]

Slash has a very Eddie Hazel-esque tone in this version. I dig it

[vdbdg]

Slash proomting his signature LP Standard. Looks every bit like mine. I mean mine looks every bit like His.

[ComedianMasters]

at like 2:45 it does not look like Slash!

[10g101010]

its because he have the wah wah pedal on

[EvaSlash]

is it juts me or does slashs guitar sound weird?

[Taikamya]

Nile Rodgers is the (i think only) guitarrist to change FROM a Stratocaster(late 80's early 90's) to Les Paul... many guitarrist changed too, but the other way... (Pete towshend, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix etc etc)

Stratos are great for blues, good for rock and perfect for funk, Les Paul is perfect for almost everything. Every sound, sounds excellent in a Les Paul, but not all sounds, sounds good on a Strato.

Great guitars ftw.

[jmonroe21090]

That's not true, they're both great for certain sounds. You can't get the same sound out of a Les Paul that you can from a Strat. Goes both ways. That's why I own a Les Paul standard and an american Strat :)

[EnricoSantacatterina]

Nile Rodgers sounds great on anything!!! No matter what he play on.

[adolfoaramayo]

awesome!!!

[Slashfr]

Fuck, it's awesome, kick ass, grezt performance, groove like always...

[deryck05]

what's wrong with slash ..?

I mean he was awesome just like always but he look so sad here

[freaknbigpanda]

maybe hes mad, some people play better when they're mad or sad because they can just get on stage and vent by playing guitar, which is really fucking fun if i do say so myself.

[sarge1799]

no slash has a certain facial expression on his face when he plays

[freaknbigpanda]

What are you responding to? I dont even remember what the talk was about?

[Mullen1991]

slash is always sleaping on the stage dont you know

[linkabus]

this is awesome!!! i wanna go to the next gala!!! go chic and slash!!!

[Sautee1]

NICE!! Nile Rodgers, Slash, CHIC -- one stage tearing it up! Great gala We Are Family Foundation!!
