For me, she is one of the coolest musicians in the world. I admire her. Actually I don't really care what she plays. She just rocks

I will be starting after the holidays.

She is very down to earth, very friendly and despite receiving as many as 200 messages per day, she responds to emails within 24 to 48 hours. I have been playing for 34 years and am looking forward to learning from one of the masters. Some of it will be self taught and some will be via email, phone and internet. I plan on starting after the holidays. I will start a thread and let everyone know how I am doing.
By the way, Carol has a website where you can buy lessons on CD, DVD, and even do one on one Skype lessons. http://www.carolkaye.com/

But on Speaking In Tongues, she's credited as playing upright, with David Byrne playing the bass guitar parts.

| | | | Man, this has grown much further than I had expected. I had no idea there were so many females in the bass scene.
Thanks everyone for the names, can't wait to start looking these ladies up. |

|  | keepin' the beat since the 60's | | Join Date: Dec 2007 Location: Studio City, SoCal, USA | | | My neighbor Jennifer Condos surely belongs on that list. She tours all the time and was playing with Don Henley for a while. Amazing player, great person.
And +100 on Lydia - she is so cool! I saw her play in Frankfurt and it was a delight. Check out the video of her playing Marcus Miller's "Free". Very nice.

She did a great clinic at the London Bass Guitar Show last year, and did a short set with a band on the Sunday: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrqwdUo1Jkw

| | | | Yeah, I've watched quite a few of Tal's videos and I really like her, contrary to this idea that she doesn't deserve to be where she's at, I think she does really well, and she's enjoyable to watch and listen to. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
