I just fell in love....

Agreed. I find it funny to have all those basses up there, playing and NOT playing well together. I'm usually not for guitar smack talk, but I seriously feel if those were 4 guitars they'd all be competing somehow.
You just now found out about Tal?! Where have you been?!
Go buy her album Transformation now. Dont do anything else, do it. Now.
You wont regret it, its my all time favorite "bass" album, and in my top 3 albums period.

Yep, there's players like Tal and then there are mere mortals like myself!! Can't help but admire someone who's that young and that good. More power to her!
I got a question about her. How long has she been playing bass? A friend of mine insist's that she hasn't been playing bass for very long at all. True? Did she play any other instruments prior to taking up the bass?

Well, I'm not a judge of good bass playing, but I think her solo was a little too long. Not exactly melodic either. Don't hate me though.
She has skills for sure!
I am just a baby bassist of 4 months, but I did not love that solo.
maybe that's jazz. I love melodic rock.

fix'd and agreed. Glad she's havin' fun but I've seen her do better. Didn't really enjoy that one.
Hey if my daughter (yeah I'm old) could play like that, I'd retire in peace. But Oteil's solo is sick. He's a master.
"So you play the bass?...That's a bit of an unusual instrument for a young lady to take up, isn't it?"
Sir presenter, your nose appears to have replaced with a cock.
In other news...she is one hell of a player. Thanks for posting this
She came to the US (L.A.) from Australia as a teenager and quickly dropped the guitar for bass, and went to music school for a short while. I believe she's now about 23 or 24 give or take a year, and has been playing the bass for about 7 years. In that time I've seen or heard her share the stage with Chick Corea, Piamenta, Wayne Krantz, The Allman Brothers, Herbie Hancock and Jeff Beck. Not a bad resume for anyone that's been playing for less than a decade.
lol I thought the same thing about the u, and so I tried an a and that wasn't right either!
I knew from the title that this was either about Tal or Esperanza. Nothin like a fine lady laying it down so well. Now we know what it was like for girls when they first saw the Beatles.
*haha*, same here. I just really saw her for the first time last night watching Jeff Beck Live @ Ronnie Scott's. She's a fine player, and just *SO FUN* to watch (being easy on the eyes notwithstanding!)
Her solo from that performance is here: The smile she gives at the end just melts my heart!
