Esperanza Spalding - What's In My Bag?

[@henriks8626]

Thx so much for having the idea to invite this wonderful person and talent, who will btw feature the intergalactic Miton Nascimento in 15 yrs!❤

[@Mai-Gninwod]

anyone who reads this NEEDS to go listen to Esperanza's most recent album Emily's D+ Evolution. It will blow your mind

[@zacharymorin5696]

William Downing It’s so amazing!

[@kingalleles]

Saw her perform the album at the Paradiso in Amsterdam...I have been inspired ever since!

[@bargainbassist]

Fascinating individual, true intellect ... and just insanely cute.

[@fabriciopiotto3634]

esperanza is so talented and sooo cute

[@Telstar62a]

Love that she's still so EXCITED! about music

[@SherriceSledgeThomas]

Love the fro!

[@gregoryswift7804]

I love to hear her voice,,, speaking, accent, singing n now her laughter, lovely🎵👼

[@mons3020]

I love the way she pronounces her own name

[@mons3020]

@Bella Colunga I know, it sounds pretty. That was 4 years ago btw c'mon now

[@mons3020]

@Bella Colunga yes, to simply tell you because you wouldn't realize how silly your decision was otherwise. Why are people so petty online? I hope you're not this rude in person.

[@untold_beast7409]

I'm surprised she hadn't heard Plantation Lullabies by Me'Shell, I would have thought that would have been in the collection from an early age. Nice that she has it in her collection now.

[@CrystalBlueProject]

She is a fantastic bass player and vocalist AND a Hendrix fan . . . I'm in love!

[@nilssonakerlund2852]

Listening to Esperanza jam with Larry Graham would be a dream come true.

[@luisfuentefdz]

I really love this woman's art form so much but when she picked up The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Larry Graham .....Man, I just can say that I knew how She really has a deep connection with the instrument and her music. Of course, I know now why She inspired me from the beggining. Keep on grooving and sorry but my bad english, people.

[@bluetv2]

I haven't had a crush in a long time but I definitely have one on Esperanza!

[@aliciadiaz95]

SHES SOOOOOOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL AND SO TALENTED!!

[@imochonai5723]

[@messiahblack4816]

[@Guitfiddlejase]

Damn! It's not that she is young-it's that I am getting old! Larry? Check! The White Album?Check!Minnie?Check! Prince?Check! ...but Me'Shell!???!!! I feel like that album came out yesterday! Step Into The Projects Where I Found Love! It has Josh Redman on it.Wha Wha Watson too..that album is SO modern!!!! So in the moment! So today! I remember when she was the musical guest on the MTV "Jon Stewart Show"(Yes-THAT Jon Stewart) If only all young people were digging on Me'Shell these days,Esperanza!

[@africanmaan]

I think i am truly in love with her every time i see her i just smile. She is just so very pretty and dont even get me started on her music its stupid how talented she is

[@shondacoloringcornerpryor162]

7 is my jam by Prince

[@keyanna2633]

She's so beautiful. I have a girl crush on her😊. Oh,and she's also very talented as well.

[@Noisehedd]

I still have a big crush on her thru all these years....and don't get me started on her skills as a Bass Player....... :3

[@ValerieBrowncheers]

Love Esperanza and she is classy, eloquent and just amazing!!!!

[@MUSIC4URDOG]

esperanza is in my bag! junjo is an awesome cd

[@user-io3th6lo9t]

Esperanza Spalding plays a mean bass!

[@TheWoud]

She is beautiful!

[@PeekaPeep]

Wow, she shops at the same Amoeba store I do!!!! How did I miss her on THAT particular day??? Lol, my mind is officially blown now. Seems her musical tastes overlap mine given what she was picking out of those bins. More power to her then! ;-D

[@teasnax]

phenomenal is as phenomenal stated. i bet she's that cool to buy music in stores like this, Amoeba promo or not;^) Esperanza Spalding RULES...!

[@everywheredave]

@BassVolta hell ya!!, loved her before i saw her, and then i saw her!!!!!!

[@SuperGamer87]

I have another reason for making it out there in the music world. It's to work with the likes of Esperanza. Then maybe, like, while in a jam session, we'll meet eyes that special way on-stage and feel all funny inside, and then go out for lunch. Then we'd start dating for months, and finally, my plan would conclude with me popping a ring. God, I love that woman! And Hendrix as her first pick? My heart can't take it!

[@johnsnow7479]

love everything about this woman

[@Te_LaSoul]

I bought that Hendrix smash hits album at the rock and roll hall of fame when I was like 11, lol. we hav so much in common

[@HunterMann]

great video(and a truly amazing store! what about the jazz CDs?

[@Skyjuice70]

love how she says her name.

[@ShashiFSSAficionada]

LARRY GRAHAM!!! LOL OMG as soon as she said his name I went "WOOOOOH!" and she happened to go "WOOOOOH!" when I went "WOOOOOH!" =D aaaaaaaaah he's amazing I wish he was my uncle :)

[@BishopCQ]

[@shmp4935]

Preciosa 3

[@cazzooks]

She is adorable. There is a theory that she is Time magazine's _real_ Person of the Year, they just didn't want to wake up too many people all at the same time. Who knows what would happen then!

[@pong224]

@TheChomps23 of course it ain't haha

[@Meongge12]

Yeah I bet she regretted getting The Symbol Album as soon as she put it in her cd player.

[@LocalBoyIreland]

I do know what you mean, I find her very attractive also.

[@PHILLYHEAT215]

Her music taste is surprisingly generic. She's fucking gorgeous though

[@glbfromjustgian3882]

😅

[@CrazyCow500]

She is fucking smoking God...

[@kas120587]

damn she looks high here...but i still love her./..

[@RAevenman]

Females of the world: Please become like her ;) Thaaaanks

[@MavidG]

I'm guessing she's like 25 if she didn't know about prince turning himself into a symbol

[@Skyjuice70]

I want to marry her !!!

[@japas]

Minnie Ripperton kinda looks like Michael Cera in drag

[@waterpenny6907]

Esperanza is my date to to Starbucks

[@CrazyCow500]

haha

[@sunyate]

you're gonna be single a loooong time!

[@Mdassoc52]

I would marry you today, if I could....but you’re so busy....M

[@basscubs]

god ...bassist ,and hot chick... i hate life!

[@BohemianConspiracy]

...yes of course this is not a full representation of her musical taste... how can it be different ? we can say this with 90 % of the other musicians in "What's in my Bag" ? They've got to make an improvised choice... (improv and jazz is a long story i guess) But that's right... I think t's better for her to tell this ...than not to tell this at all...
