Def Leppard Discuss Jimi Hendrix Legacy
. We recently spoke with Def Leppard about Hendrix, and guitarist Phil Collen called him "the ultimate rock guitar player, the most amazing guitar player of all time." Singer Joe Elliott, meanwhile, marveled at Hendrix's abilities not only through the amp, but also on the mic. In their exclusive video, Joe Elliott references their cover of Hendrix's "Manic Depression." If you're wondering where that's from, don't look in Def Leppard's discography. Elliott and Collen had a side project called the Cyberauts, with bassist Trevor Bolder and drummer Mick "Woody" Woodmansey (both from David Bowie's Spiders From Mars band). Their cover of "Manic Depression" is on their 2001 EP The Further Adventures Of The Cybernauts. Collen has also covered Hendrix's "Fire" with his other band, Man Raze. Check out the video here. CBS Local submitted this story.
