Slash discusses making his new blues album, 'Orgy of the Damned,' with Iggy Pop, Demi Lovato, Chris Stapleton, Billy Gibbons, and Paul Rodgers.
. “When I was a kid, though, I was exposed to great blues music from my family. So even though my intention was to be a rock musician when I picked up the guitar, it was always firmly rooted in the blues ideal.”
I had a couple of weeks’ window between legs on the Guns tour, and I just decided that I was going to use that time to make this record. All of a sudden, I felt inspired to do it. A good example of that was when we did “Stormy Monday” with Beth Hart. That was the first time we ever played it with her. It was supposed to be a rehearsal, but she delivered such a hardcore performance that we just kept it as is. She put this crazy fucking really emotional vocal on it.Well, she was — and we all were — reeling from the passing of Jeff Beck. She was wrecked from having just come back from his funeral. That vocal was her emotional homage to Jeff. She couldn’t do another take.
We didn’t spend a lot of time listening to the originals. It wasn’t necessary, because you know the songs and you start to have a different interpretation of the arrangements within the context of the group that you’re playing in. Or maybe you just want to hear it go another way, and you just do that.
