    That bassline go crazy 💯 Her voice is so sweet and soothing

    What an amazing voice, extraordinarily delightful, comforting & powerful. Thank you for sharing!

    It’s so cool to hear the song stripped down to just her vocals and bass line. I obviously love the full version, but hearing it this way gives me a whole new appreciation for it. Her line is so smooth and connected that you don’t really miss the rest of the band. Incredible musicianship!

      Why does this sound more like politeness than praise? Can we be polite AND serious? This wasn't awful...but it was hardly great or "connected".

    • @mandymawson9121
      @mandymawson9121 Před 6 měsíci

      I’m not sure what you mean when you say it’s not connected, but I’ll rephrase my comment. Part of what makes a bass line so great is it’s fluidity- perhaps that’s a better word to use than connectedness. The notes run into each other smoothly, so there’s never an absence of sound. It’s one of those concepts that seem so simple in theory, but when executed well, make all the difference. This is especially true when the bassist is really playing multiple roles at once. In this case, Tal didn’t have a rhythm guitar or drummer to assist, so all of the weight was on the bass line.

      @@mandymawson9121 - Well put. I suppose I should also modify my comment by saying that I have always found some instruments to be unlistenable as solos (including drum solos that often seem to be more athletic than musical). These instruments are, in my opinion, more suited to a role in the background of a musical ensemble.
      The “disconnect” comes from when most listeners cannot really HEAR the bass unless their audio system can adequately reproduce the sound…especially on their cell-phones. All I heard was her voice (a beautiful voice) with this SLAPPING sound in the background.
      I also think during this kind of solo, some folks are too polite (or embarrassed) to say anything negative about the artist trying to do something nice…but fail. For myself (and I might be in the minority) I often imagine an operatic Mozart piece with only the bass line! How can I not say something negative?

    Tal is so good, it's nice to see more of her these days, I first saw her play with Jeff Beck, and been a big fan ever since, she has a real genuine energy that is all her own. Bassists don't generally get much love but I can't imagine Tal has that problem.

    So incredible, I have been watching her career and love seeing her go from being an amazing bass player to an unbelievable composer. Great podcast Lex!!

  • @photoneon
    @photoneon Před 6 měsíci

    I know and love Tal for about one month and I think this is so far my favorite and mosted played song. I hope she never stops creating songs with deeper lyrics, advanced chords and interesting rhythms even if modern pop music seems to dictate "easy listening". And I really hope I will have the opportunity to see her live some time!

    It does sound good. Not for novice ears tuned to pop and not an easy style to perform.

    I like how she sings in tune.

  • @jonathanustin6295
    @jonathanustin6295 Před 21 dnem

    As well-deserved as her status is as one of the world's best bassists, I still feel that her talent as a songwriter/composer/lyricist/singer/frontwoman is even greater. Tal Wilkenfeld is a genius. A virtuoso instrumentalist who could be a pop star (in the best sense of that much maligned term). She's the kind of music star the world needs. Just sayin'.

  • @christopherp.hitchens3902
    @christopherp.hitchens3902 Před 6 měsíci +2

    Sorry. I cannot imagine being accompanied by a solo bass, even if her voice is spectacular. Much like sandblocks and tamourine, the bass is a support instrument. Ironically...this song is KILLING ME!
