Andy Summers | Jamming with Tal…

Jamming with Tal…
Tal Wilkenfeld

[@peterperez1285]

People need to realize just how INTEGRAL he was to the sound of the Police. He gave the music such a feel, texture, depth and color. I don’t think the Police would have been NEARLY the same band without him.

[@SuperAngelic5]

I agree

[@slaflen]

pretty sure everybody does. :)

[@FaceoftheMarmot]

Thanks for the insight..what would we do without you ?

[@damirglavas7940]

There is no doubt about that🤔🤗

[@mrmatthew2443]

Who desnt know this ?? Especially in a trio

[@jdcapshew]

Andy is not only a superlative player, but a superb storyteller. His memoir is one of the finest music autobiographies ever.

[@SwampEye1]

I guess you're refering to the Rick Beato Interview .... fantastic

[@sisyphuscranerigging7792]

@@SwampEye1 it refers to his book One Train Later. The way that book is written you'd think Andy was an author in a previous life. Also, parts of it are uproariously funny!

[@aladickes]

Just finished One Train Later and you're right, it's an incredible story. One of my top 3 favorite rocks doc books ever.

[@jdcapshew]

@@SwampEye1 - He was great with Rick Beato too but I was referring to his autobiography that my was published by St. Martin’s Press about 10 years ago.

[@-dugair]

​@@jdcapshew I believe the book came out just before the reunion tour. Also... I was just thinking... I don't recall seeing Andy on Jonesy's Jukebox. ?¿‽ ★ -dugair PDXtc

[@matthewtorossi8909]

You’re a treasure Andy. Great playing all around. Andy’s interview with rick beato was so engaging I couldn’t stop watching. Andy is so humble and gratefull. Cheers! And thanks for sharing.

[@johnnyrocker7495]

Did Beato spend the whole interview asking him about The Beatles?

[@frosty327]

He gave the Police the sound. Stewart was the backbeat, so the could do anything. Stewart is a monster

[@jessicaguerrero3189]

Props to the drummer as well 👏 👍

That's Tamir Barzilay on drums. He's truly amazing!

[@XLBiker13]

As a bass player Tal is amazing. As a singer... um, got to give her credit for letting that go out on the internet.

[@BrunoCOHENstudio]

Try for yourself to play the bass and sing on this song… Tal did well (and this looks and sounds like a rehearsal)

[@MarkTarmannPianoCheck_it_out]

yeah, and they weren't (obviously ) giving enough attention and care to vocal in the mix. If it had been mixed properly, it would have sounded a lot better. @@BrunoCOHENstudio

[@DavidRavenMoon]

Listen to her solo records. She has a great voice. She clearly didn’t know the song well (she’s reading the lyrics), and it’s not in her range.

[@SCOTT-ki3ve]

Her voice is really cool. It's unique. She's on.

[@shorthop65]

Now we know why Sting is really a fantastic musician, songwriter, bass player, vocalist and performer

[@ldhorricks]

ok why is that...other than the fact that he is...what are you trying to say

[@jacqueslapidieux3182]

Gotta give it to that Sting...he could hit those high notes..! Lovely to see Tal playing a "P" and Andy being his usual timeless classy self 😊

[@rockochenta]

Andy is so relaxed and enjoying the moment, while Tal is having lots of fun. Great work by the drummer too!

I had the honour of taking Andy's place, at a Zoot Money and The Big Roll Band 'reunion gig' in the New Forest, many years ago. He was unable to make the reunion. Something to remember now I'm 74 and unable to hardly play these days. Good times!

[@gregholman2431]

Wow. Fascinating.

[@AHoundOnAHonda]

Better than being able to hardly play...

[@GSP21]

Hahaha! Good one, I wish!! I was just another guitarist but I knew the sax player, Nigel Street, from Zoot's original band!

[@tankthelord1178]

And?

[@bfdmudk]

Respect - 81 and still doing things with a guitar that underpins that less is so much more! A credit for the excellent drummer is warranted.

[@JNathanielBerke]

[@jazzdrumguy5044]

Andy still sounds great - got to see The Police in 2008 - it was freakin' fantastic! Andy and Stewart were on fire......and I was in the same room as Sting!!!! He sang and nailed bass - what a night!

[@deathmetaldouglas69]

I met Sting on the prior tour of 2007. I was working as a stagehand and he was sitting down by himself watching us set up the stage. Against better judgement I went up to him and we had a ten minute conversation. As I left I made him laugh loud with "Elvis has just left the building and you are next. Nervous?" as we spent a huge chunk of our conversation over Elvis Costello& the Imposters who opened the show. This was after Elvis's soundcheck I believe. The Police played a blues jam at soundcheck.

[@IToad]

It’s so good to watch you play even at this times! Always a pleasure. Keep on Rockin’ as always, Andy!

[@melodymakermark]

I didn’t realize till many years after the Police hit that Andy was older than Sting and Stewart. I mean Andy came out of that same London scene as Page, Beck, Clapton, et al. I think Andy sold to Clapton his first Les Paul, jammed with Hendrix, was room mates with Eric Burden before The Animals. Such a tasty minimalist “serve the song” player.

[@bangcolt]

Andy was one of the most unsung guitarists of the rock era. His soundscapes were absolutely essential to the Police's sound.

[@ldhorricks]

not unsung by his peers...Andy was well known for his guitar chops...long before he was a member of the Police he was a top sought after session player and well known in music circles in the UK.

I love Tal. She is an amazing musician....but every time I see her , I can't help but think of Jeff Beck. My heart sinks....and then go watch a video of Jeff and Tal playing together.Then I feel like that was it: The reason brilliant people exist. They ALWAYS leave us something beautiful. ❤🙏🏼

[@ThaiThom]

Jeff Beck - like any truly great musician - brought out the absolute best in whoever he played with. That's the true measure of musical greatness.

[@Barry101er]

She is so great

[@tedbogan6099]

Yes, she was his perfect bassist, always in the pocket, allowing him to explore, those to were inseparable, I used to think she was his daughter the way he cared for, Beck is sorely missed by many, including myself!

[@lexluthier8290]

Many modern guitarists have achieved technical mastery of the guitar, but few, if any, have made it an extension of their soul. I still can't believe he's gone.

[@farukkocak4194]

I love her bass playing and her collaborations, especially with Jeff who introduced her to us. However, I don't dig her singing very much and her solo stuff.

[@angusorvid8840]

Total excellence! I love it.

[@mightyV444]

Very cool! 🤩👍 And the first time I hear Tal play with a pick and also sing! 😀

[@DanielSprouse]

it's time for Tal to curate her own supergroup.

[@Baribrotzer]

She did a singer-songwriter album a few years age - Love Remains - with Jeremy Stacey (King Crimson), Benmont Tench (Tom Petty), and Blake Mills (just about everybody, as a producer and studio man). Then she toured it with a different but also excellent band, who stretched out on the songs Sixties/Seventies-style. But that solo career never took off; the album was quite good but didn't really sell. Her fans might have expected fusion technical fireworks, but were confronted by a set of sad love songs, played at a very high but not show-offy level. So I guess she went back to playing sessions and tours as a sidewoman.

[@maximusretrievers]

She’s currently playing with the Allman Betts Family Revival with the Dickinson brothers and others. Saw them at the Ryman in December. Just got tickets to see them again in June in Peoria.
