Chris Slade (AC/DC, Timeline, The Firm) - Interview - Savigny-le-Temple 2018 - Duke TV [Subs] 

His drumming on the live in donnington AC/DC concert video is legendary

Live at Donnington concert was absolutely amazing with Slade on the drums.

Let there be rock Live at Donnington...Chris stamina, technique, power...not even death metal drummers can keep those 16th notes on the hi-hat with such perfection and power for so long...great fucking drummer, Cheers mate!!!

Once you watch the Live at Donington concert, you realize Chris' drumming rules

I saw AC/DC in 92 with Slade. Razors edge album, It was great. Im a harsh critic too but It was the best show I've ever seen. I've seen a lot of Legendary bands, AC/DC is the best. Hands down

Donnington is their best live recording and much of it comes down to Chris Slade - he is such a passionate drummer

Great interview. A very humble man who has played drums with the best of them.

Mr. Slade this world has been so blessed with you behind the kit so humble so talented thank you Jesus

Classy guy. He has nothing bad to say about anyone. Think about the situation this guy has been in for 30 years. Hey Chris, we need you ready to play for AC/DC at any time if Phil falls apart. But the second Phil is ready to go again, you are out again. Can not be easy to operate that way.

If I had a rock band and could have any drummer I wanted it would be Chris Slade, the best drummer to ever swing a stick, Rock and Roll will never die 🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸

Saw him in The Firm in 1986 in L.A. Great, great show.

Wonderful Person and great drummer Met him in Luxemburg 2month ago and it was a lifetime experience and inspiration thanks mr. Slademonster

Greatest Drummer ever! Chris Slade!

How good is it not to hear a guy with both feet on the ground , sharing some good memories , and sharing it with out lift him self , just enjoying playing the drums who ever it was with !! Thanks for sharing Mr Slade, appreciate it big-time !! Cheers mate....

Chris is an awesome powerhouse drummer, he beats the crap out of his kit.

One of the best drummers walking the face of this earth,i would have loved to see him more,with the firm and yes even with ac/dc

LEGEND.....Donnington 91....Loved every moment of it. Slade, your a Legend bro. RESPECT.

Great drummer w/all who he has played w/over the years, but the groove between Malcolm, Cliff, and Phil will never be copied, replicated, or reproduced, ever! One of THE best rhythm sections EVER!!! RIP Mal!

Angus once said words to the effect that Chris Slade was the only real musician that was ever in AC⚡️DC

Mr. Slade, I know this is something silly you do in your spare time for lunch money or pub money; but if you happen to see this; I'm Mike and my wife Kathryn got you to wish me and her, as one of my gifts a Happy Anniversary. I personally thank you. That aside, I know it's in print and I think a majority would agree that you are hands down the best drummer AC/DC ever had. I believe Brian Johnson even stated as much. I know it's a business and I don't know the deals made, but I feel you were likely screwed over. Phil Rudd may have sentimental value to the Young brothers. But if they prefer to go merely on sentiment, perhaps they'll bring back Bon and Malcolm. I know, that's ugly, but you get my point, I'm sure. Anyway, thanks for the personalized video.

Saw The Firm in 1987 in Denver. Still one of the best shows I have seen.

Chris is a class act... great drummer

what a musician! what a human being! 🇮🇹 love & support from Italy

A great gentleman.

My grandfather was a jeweller and phisically like Chris except he wasn´t bald. I´m feeling pretty close to you as i´m a drummer too. Cheers!

I was sure that Chris was a great man. This interview just confirmed it.

I first saw Chris Slade in the mid '70s in Philadelphia with Manfred Mann's Earth Band. He was amazing. I think he can play any genre of music and play it superbly. 👍

Chris Slade - AC/DC - Big Gun -👌👌👌

I love Chris Slade!! Fantastic drummer!👍

surely the drummer who has played with ac/dc is so damn good!!! love him

I’m really pissed that Chris is not with AC/DC right now! I love how he plays drums and I love the sound of thunderstruck and all of that after!

Check out Chris on all his Manfred manns earthband albums there superb and criminally underated

I got to see Chris Slade drumming for Gary Numan in New Orleans in 82. It was a cruise on the Riverboat President and one of the loudest shows Ive ever been to. Such a Night 🎭

Chris Slade was an absolute monster in the 90s

The Best and perfect Drummer for AC/DC

LOV CHRIS SLADE!!!!!! MY FAVORITE DRUMMER OF ALL TIME!!!!!! THUMBS UP!!!!!:)

I have been listening to ACDC since I was 12. Axel Rose don't even belong on the same stage with the greatest band ever. Rock On for ever

One of the biggest rock stars most people don't know about. That would be the job to have.

This man is a motherfucking beast The Angus Young of drums,just goes crazy

I’d like to add to the comments speaking to the Donington performance with Chris. The drumming was classic AC DC rhythm, but the facial expressions are great. I’d love to know about the look he made, while watching Angus at stage left, during The Jack.

Chris is awesome !!

It's more than amazing when Chris plays money talks. I really love it..

A great inspiration to rock into the elder years.

Chris Slade best

Chris Slade....Absoulute respect. One of my favorites

Chris is lovely and a gifted passionate drummer

I think Chris Slade is a great Drummer. I was fortunate to see him play with AC/DC in Denver before Brian Johnson was dismissed from the tour because of hearing issues. The funny thing is I was looking real forward to seeing him play even though Rudd is an awesome drummer who plays with incredible feel. But so does Slade. He's done a great job with AC/DC. Hats off to him. And I've known since the 80's he used to play for Tom Jones via a Modern Drummer interview article back in the day. Now if that ain't cool I don't know what is. You rock Chris Slade.

No disrespect to Phil Rudd, he helped create the sound that is ACDC. But Chris Slade sets the band on fire. Worlds of difference.

Hes a MIF ! Is my inspiration ! Thank You Chris !

크리스슬레이드 당신은전설입니다😍🤘

Check him out with Manfred Mann’s Earthband the band that really set him on his way

You are a real cool drummer with class. My opinion is you care & respect for bands. Thank you Chris.

i saw chris slade in the band of gary moore keep on rocking mr slade ;-)

I thoroughly enjoyed this interview... Chris rocks... Donnington kicks ass...

Oh wow I did NOT know Chris did Backup vocals. COOL!!!!

What a career.

True gentleman

I have to meet this man someday.... There is nothing he says I don't like and wow!

I like Phil he's a awesome drummer but Chris is much better he's down to earth has a great personality alot nicer then phil keep on rocking Mr Slade

Whenever someone says AC/DC is just a rock and roll band and not heavy metal, I think of Chris Slade's genius use of two bass gong drums at head level.

Chris Slade. Phenomenal. Such an inspiration!

Legend

After Phil Rudd Chris had to be the perfect guy for the job nothing but pure class playing with ac/dc good on ya mate

i dont think the word "genius" remotely comes close to explaining Malcolm. that entire band is everything good about music

Chris Slade, I always thought AC/DC was at its pinnacle on the Razors Edge album. There’s a reason for that.

Love you, Chris. YOU FUCKING TERMINATOR.🤟

King Chris. King of the Dannington 👊👊👊👊

Why did not he mention his work with Manfred Mann's Earth Band? The 70s were his best years.

Chris Slade monster on "Drums"😎👊

AC/DC aside it would be good to see The Firm again, even just to get Page onstage!

He's a brilliant drummer!

When he says certain things his mannerisms remind me of Keith Richards. 🥁

fkn legend - THANKS

I don't know about his statement about "playing with more power than I have ever been in my life", I'm a Chris Slade fan but I'm still looking for that 'ol Chris in the 90's. I was really excited and happy when he returned but looking at his performance from the Rock or Bust tour it is different now and his performance in the AC/DC live in Donnington will always be my all time favorites.

Awesome drummer 👍

Best ACDC drummer ever.

My personal fave is Chris's work with tom Jones , look it up , he does chills and fever and what I'd say absolutely awesome , Chris and bobby Elliot were my inspiration to finally resist the urge and play the drums ,I'm nowhere near as good as either of them !

i prefer chris over phil in ac/dc chris hits harder on the drums sounds better to my ears

Chris, the best!

if Phil Rudd head hadn't fucked it up he would still be drumming with ACDC instead being stuck in NZ

Use to drink the pub with him in kent 😂

Still prefer Phil for ACDC, still a monster on the drums and seems like a really humble man.

best AC/DC DRUMMER

In my opinion, Chris Slade was AC/DC's best drummer they have ever had.

What a hero Great gentleman

chris is a power drummer. he doesn't have phil's groove

Me encanta Chris Slade..

Sensacional...

I really liked when he was with Jimmy Page and Paul Rodgers in The Firm in the mid 80s

ACDC with no Brian, no Malcolm, no Cliff??? WTF? This is no longer ACDC. :(

Chris Slade is an awesome Drummer I prefer Phil Rudd but in my opinion both are great Drummers & Both have Fit AC/DC very well

Chris Slade - AC/DC - THUNDERSTRUCK !!

Спасибо!

Una leyenda!!!! Grande Chris Slade.

I cant believe malcolm only spoke to him once....... crazy

I get folk prefer phil rudd but hes a waste of space and to me chris slade is a better drummer. The razors edge revived the band and look at how well the live album and live at donnington video went down and thats largely down to chris. Hope hes part of the bands next tour

What a sympathetic guy. 👏

Chris Slade rules

Malcolm young greatest rythem player ever born

Man that dude singing Dirty Deeds would be awesome if he sang in tune, He's definitely got the timbre for sure!
