Re: 100 Greatest Guitarists

Having seen Jeff Beck in concert this past April, I have to agree with you  
that he IS on some other level, seemingly, these days. My sister and I 
went, and  were totally blown away by him, and also by his band. The bass 
player 
you are  referring to is Tal Wilkenfeld. She is about 23 or 24 now, 
Australian, and has  toured in the past with Chick Corea. She is AMAZING---and 
looks about 12 years  old on stage playing that bass!!  :)
 
And having seen JB in concert, I find it INCREDIBLY hard to put him at # 14 
 on this stupid list. Between JP at #9, and JB at # 14, this list obviously 
isn't  worth the paper it's written on.  LOL!  :)

I can't recall who said it, it may have been Jimmy or Eric Clapton,  or

at 
the time when Beck did several nights at Ronnie Scotts last  year.


Did anyone catch the Jeff Beck concert they have been playing  from time to 
time on Paladia? I was completely blown away. I have always  liked Jeff's 
guitar playing, but this was on some other level from what I  have heard 
before on various LP's and bootlegs I have acquired over the  years. So in 
my 
unprofessional view this statement above is right on the  mark.
They spent quite a bit of camera time on the female bass player too I  
noticed. Does anyone know who she is? She is quite young I thought to be  
playing with someone of Beck's caliper. I thought maybe it was his  
daughter 
or something?
