Video: Slash performs GNR's "Black Leather" live with Lita Ford

[Bridge]

At the Whiskey's 50th anniversary show on 1/9/14.  Interesting since GNR never performed "Black Leather" live.

It's not GNR's "Black Leather."
It's a song that Lita Ford and The Runaways made famous.

I don't see where Bridge said it was GNR's song.   

It is just cool to see GNR members play songs from a studio record that were never performed live.  I am still waiting to hear Don't Damn Me live from any of the UYI members!

"Black Leather" is actually a Sex Pistols song originally, which was then covered by the Runaways, then later recorded by GNR on The Spaghetti Incident, which is why I called it a GNR song.  Just like "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" is thought of as a GNR song even though it's a cover.

Thread's title.

Exactly.
