Looking for some funky/fusion bass... Check out Tal Wilkenfeld!

I Stumbled across Tal Wilkenfeld while looking for a Charlie Parker album on iTunes.  As I scanned the "Listeners Also Bought" box and saw all the usual suspects (Victor Wooten, Stanley Clarke, Marcus Miller, etc...)  Tal's, name caught my eye.  (don't ask me why a line of bass players showed up... I just searched for "Au Privave" and their they were...)  I've never heard of her but you can listen to some of her cuts here.   I highly recommend the album.  She's a very talented bass player and the music is interesting and fun.

An interesting note of coincidence,  I had already seen her play with Jeff Beck at the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.  I noticed her but didn't put it together with this album until I checked out her website. She looks very different between the Video performance and her album cover.
