As a Jimi Hendrix fan, I just have to share these videos I stumbled across, featuring former Guns N’ Roses bassist Duff McKagan and Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready jamming on classic Hendrix tunes.
The two were performing at a tribute concert organized by Seattle’s Experience Music Project that took place on November 17th. Along with drummer Barrett Martin and vocalist Brandi Carlisle, the pair ran through the Hendrix classics “Voodoo Chile” and “Machine Gun”.
There was actually a myriad of highly skilled people playing the gig, including Jimi’s bandmate and friend Billy Cox, as well as guitarists Ian Moore, Ernie Isley (Isley Brothers), Eric Gales (Lauryn Hill), Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Brandi Carlile, Audley Freed (Sheryl Crow), Jeff Fielder (Sera Cahoone, Mark Lanegan), Barrett Martin (Walking Papers, Screaming Trees, Mad Season), and drummer Mike Musburger (Fastbacks, Posies).
