Beck's bassist???

Sign in to disble this ad
OK, so I'm sitting in the LR with my son, an aspiring guitard, and we're watching the Crossroads/Eric Clapton special on our local PBS station. Jeff Beck plays, and there's this young, blonde woman MONSTER bassplayer.

Who, WHO, WHO? is she? She had some chops; at least I was impressed in the one tune they played on TV. She was having fun, too.

Anybody know?

TIA,

Jeff

Tal Wielkenfield. There is a pretty big thread on her already:

Tal Wilkenfeld. She's an up and comer from Australia. Just to let you know, there's about 100 threads about her on here already and this thread might get ugly real quick. She is good though for a player her age.

Tal

No uglies here, folks. I was struck by her chops, her enthusiasm, and the way she seemed to be honestly having a gas playing w/Beck. As a relative newby/re-entry player, I'd never seen/heard of her. I'll go back to lurk mode, now, and do some research....

Thanks,

Jeff

Are you talking Jeff Beck or Beck?
I know she plays with Jeff Beck but is she with Beck now too?

I got to meet Tal. She's very down to earth.. nice person. She's a little thing too.. the bass looks so big on her! She picked up by bass and said "wow, that's really heavy!" and handed it back to me..
