Separated at Birth?


Alice




Tal Wilkenfeld

For the uninitiated Tal is about the hottest thing to hit the bass guitar since Paul McCartney. She barely 20 and can hold her own playing bass for Jeff Beck and/or Eric Clapton. Whale of a jazz bassist too.

'Fraid I've not got into jazz, but bass is the very best!

hmm..not familiar with her, although the guys on one of the guitar boards I'm on love her. Partial to Charlotte Cooper, of The Subways. Also....Lada, the bassist of the Croatian surf band The Bambi Molesters. Lovely women who tear it up on the bass.

Groovy as hell. I've looked her up and she sure knows how to play the bass.

thanks for sharing!
