Ayla's guitar cover "Since I've Been Loving You" is a "master class" in feeling and technique. Her use of volume, bends, clean, distortion, and pick attack blends amazingly well with Robert Plant's powerhouse tour de force vocals. Ayla plays Plants heart rendering emotions on the strings as if she were a veteran guitarist of a ten year on the road, Led Zepplin cover band.

[@whynottalklikeapirat]

I have had conversation with high level musicians who would insist that it’s not you as a musician who is feel a lot of stuff but your job is to build an expression that CONVEYS the feeling to other people so THEY can feel it. The rationale is something like this: - Just because you privately feel something while playing doesn’t mean you automatically CONVEY it. - When uncontrolled, emotion can divert you from the basics of the physical act playing, timing and your connection with the other musicians, making the part fall apart. - Feelings come and go, but professionals must repeat to the same level of artistic expression every time. So they’re unreliable in that respect. - It is completely possible to build a specific expression, say a type of vibrato or any other means of building a musical effect and execute it coolly, with control and precision and create a lot of emotion in the listener. Now clearly humans have feelings about everything that happens all the time, unless their amygdala is petrified or something. The point is not that you don’t sense and feel the music, or relate to it - it’s that you are not in the throes of or depending upon the presence of private passion in order to EXpress it. It’s not limited to music either, this si a certain approach to artistic work. In some of the same sessions I spoke with high level actors one of whom had been performance at the Stanislavski Academy in Russia, which is a tradition that DOES somewhat rely on feeling. This actor was there to demonstrate her technique which was all about the control over and plasticity of the body. She performed a scene for the teachers there to standing ovations, and then she faced them and made her point: “… and I FELT nothing!”. Now granted these are artists that lean towards a more classical expression. I am not sure that I personally wholly agree with this approach for the kinds of music I prefer - but it’s remains true that emotion is fickle, and there is a question for the professional in WHERE the emotion should reside: in YOU, in the PIECE, or in the AUDIENCE. Direct transfer cannot be assumed. I have seen a good number of amateur or untrained professional musicians writhing in passion on stage and people responding to the visual performance of that, but none of it translated into the execution of the music. The three part division is not as simple as it seems - there are issues that arise at every stage. And ALL professionals need to practice their art to where they can repeat reliably at the highest level. I don’t think anyone expects astronauts or acrobats or great thinkers to be obliviously lost in passion when they perform their rather technical feats either. The idea of the great artist lost in a moment of passionate expression is to some extent a meme or a laymans romance of creative process. But the alternative is challenging because as an audience you may want to feel like you are sharing the passion with the artist in the moment. Maybe you are - but from different positions. One is building it, one is savouring it. A great chef does not have to be gushing about his food in the process of making it in order to have you gush about eating it. In fact if the chef was gushing about every plate going out, he’d probably be emotionally burnt out by the end of the week - which is a real risk for artists by the way. What translates and moves your experience from the private to the public is FORM and form is repeatable, and practiceable. Theoretically a good enough robot would be able to mindlessly analyse and repeat the solo on Comfortably Numb in all it’s physical repects and still provoke emotion. So there is the challenge of understanding how emotion operates at different levels of artistic performance.

[@SuiGenerisMan]

You THINK she added something and "hear it in your head" that way because you HAVE heard it that way, when Jimmy played it on the live performance at Madison Square Center in Song remains the Same. Hers is spectacular but it's a slightly tamer version of what Jimmy did that night, understandably, it's almost impossible to exactly copy a performance like that note-for-note. She clearly studied this performance which is far harder and far more sophisticated than covering an album version with easily accessible tablature, and that makes this FAR more impressive of an accomplishment.

@@oreldm I hear you. Still, she's pretty good for a 15-year-old. I used to play this song myself back in the 1970s when I was a teenager. There was a Led Zeppelin songbook that had Since I've Been Loving You in it, and the two guitar solos - and all the little licks and chords in-between - had been transcribed note-for-note in a notation that indicated which string and which fret to play each note in the solo on. (In other words, not the standardized musical notation but a notation a layman could read.) Some of them were eighth notes - maybe even sixteenth notes - the solo is so fast in certain parts. The only other song in the songbook that had the guitar solo transcribed note-for-note in that fashion was Celebration Day. So I taught myself how to play both of those songs with the guitar solos. I didn't really understand why Jimmy Page had bothered to copy out a note-for-note transcription of such intricate guitar solos, but there you go. (Someone will say he didn't do it; it was transcribed by someone else; but that's unlikely to have been accomplished by the mid-1970s. It had to have been The Maestro. himself.) I'm pretty sure that that songbook is the source of all these videos of folks playing that song. I recognize the phrasings and fretboard positions this young lady is using from the notation contained in the Led Zeppelin songbook.

[@tawnkuimi-uru7212]

***** Maybe not. Or just maybe I simply do not have that type of talent. Some people have it, and some do not. I happen to be in the latter case. I do not feel less adequate for being so because I have talents that this young lady, (and maybe yourself as well), does not have. Yet my desire is still the same. And because of that desire, I find maybe a deeper level of appreciation of those who are so very talented.

[@kennywood6434]

This is just unreal! Absolutely brilliant playing!!! I don't have the words in my vocabulary to give this the kind of praise it truly deserves. You are soooooo incredibly talented, Ayla Tesler-Mabe! Yes, I've seen many of your videos...including your originals which are brilliant on their own, but this, for me, just takes the cake. I'm floored. ❤

[@bobbyruggs808]

Amazing cover with some killer improv added as well. I see a lot of comments about her playing it better than Page. Look, she is definitely a great player but lets not forget that Page wrote this amazing piece and so much more and why he is rightfully regarded as one of the greatest rock guitarists of all time.

[@mariost-jacques7490]

bobbyruggs808 my thoughts exactly...

[@richardchavez4366]

I 've listened to Page over the years and he was not exactly a great player...genious writer, yes..player, on the other hand, not so much...his live work was kinda sucky...great showman but his actual skill left a lot to be desired. I agree that she did play this better than he did..

I forget how many times I've watched this now. Who cares? Still blows my mind every time - not just your mastery of the instrument, at the age of 15, Ayla, but how well you memorise and reproduce every detail of this incredible, lengthy, iconic Jimmy Page solo. If I could do this piece such justice, after a lifetime of trying, I would die a happy man. Total respect to you.

[@sgt.grinch3299]

I’m blown away. That is how the guitar is supposed to sound and be played. Thanks for giving us hope that young people get music.

[@ale9507]

I'm seriously impressed with this. The original piece is difficult in and of itself and requires a lot of attention to detail in the dynamics, and not only did you nail that, but you also added your own interpretation which is crucial with this song in particular. It's blues to the core and blues is known for the prevalence of improvisation in it, so I really am glad you tried something different. I personally wasn't too fond of the pre-bends: I'm going to sound like a bit of a purist now (which is kind of contradictory to what I just said), but I really like Jimmy's unrefined bending that at times failed to hit the correct pitch. Other than that, your vibrato, timing, choice of notes, etc. was phenomenal. From someone in the midst of learning this piece, you did a great, great job. I'm going to use a few concepts from your rendition if you don't mind..

[@ramitsharma6177]

Wow I actually didn't realize that sometimes the 'wrong' bends your talking about actually do sound better. Or maybe our ears are just expecting to hear Jimmy's version because we've heard it so many times. Whatever it is I agree with you

[@JeighNeither]

@@ramitsharma6177 It's quarter-tonal notes that he's talking about without using the proper term. We don't really have those in Western music unfortunately, so you didn't learn about them in school, but you do hear them all the time in African, Middle Eastern, Indian, etc, music, we all know Jimmy was fond of. So whether purposeful or not, there is nothing wrong with them, we just don't have the notation in western music. I agree with the OP tho. I'm fairly sure this girl is a prodigy, since she's extremely talented in multiple instruments, so I'm surprised she didn't leave them, because they do matter, & while you might be familiar with them as well, that doesn't negate their impact on their own.

[@Dan.Solo.Chicago]

This song is like a guitar master class. There is so much to learn from this. Lots of great stuff to have in your bag as a lead guitarist. This is the very stuff that bridged the blues over to heavy hard rock. Important interplay between the singer and guitar. They fill in each other’s negative space. But not too much and most importantly IN TIME. You gotta wait out those moments, even when your itching to play, in order to serve the song. Alway strive to serve the song, not your need for attention. Serve the song.

[@paigeheartly8936]

Amen. Always serve the song 🙏

[@freddyspence1582]

100%!!!! I was thinking exactly the same. This Girl has it all. Holds it back & busts out a smoking Lead when it is needed. She has a large bag of tricks! Skills to burn! As a Lead Guitar player myself & over 40 years experience, I have learnt from her just now! Wow!

[@feddomeijerwiersma6955]

My sentiments exactly! In *NEVER* gets old! How does one actually “learn” something like this note for note? Just running through tabs bar by bar?

[@Dan.Solo.Chicago]

@@feddomeijerwiersma6955 Pretty much. I think there are three stages to learning a song on guitar. Stage one - Tab. You don’t necessarily have to go bar by bar, just chop it up in a way that makes sense to you. Go through the tab and play every note and you’ll start to see how it will all come together. When you have enough of it memorized, then comes the next stage. Stage two - practice. You have the song in your head, now you work on playing it. Identify the hardest parts and play them over and over. Doing that may become annoying to anyone who can hear you practice. Just keep that in mind, because I really mean over and over until you play it nice and smooth. Once you can play the hardest parts, then start working on playing the whole song start to finish with no mistakes. Then move to the next stage. Third stage - nailing it. You can play the song, now work on making it sound just like the original recording. Listen to the track closely to soak up all the fine details. Look at the tab occasionally for a refresher to make sure you got it right. Play along with the track. This stage really shows you how tab is so much better than learning by ear. You can see all the little nuance bits that you would probably miss when learning it by ear. Fine tune everything so it all sounds just how it’s supposed to. One thing I like to do is find the song on KZbin, just the album version, not live and screen record the song. Then in photos, edit the video down to just the part of the song your working on, and play that in a loop over and over until you have it down and it sounds just like the recording. That’s how I do it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. ✌️

[@boristhespider4879]

So true, it's got every lick in the history of rock and blues that could ever need. You could write a thousand songs with great grooves and licks picked out from this song and still have some left over. This singer needs to check himself though lol. Oh, and this girl plays the blues like a boss. Incredible.

[@fscott7840]

I have not in the past really commented on You Tube vids or any other items on the internet. I find my opinion not worth a grain of salt to who would read them. Your vid however has done something to me that I feel it was necessary to post. As a 53 old man, I find that new rock as we know it is dead. You my dear girl have struck a cord(pardon the pund) with me that has been soooo wonderful. I have as most of us listened to this song for decades. But somehow you have been able to make me feel great about this song again. You have been able to nail it. Your playing of this song is incredible. I can't stop watching it. I have watched it a million times. It makes me happy. I can't explain that any better. I know you were only 14 when you did this. That in itself is hard to comprehend but I know other kids in this age group play well and post. It's cute and their parents and friends are impressed as they should be. You however did something that all the other kids have not till this time. You entertained me. Don't get me wrong, kids playing are wonderful. It shows how at a early age you can master a talent. But you have been able to crack something in my music soul with this vid. I would have bought this recording. Jimmy Page would be impressed if he saw it. If you do nothing in playing the guitar anymore It would be a shame but this recording would be enough. From the bottom of my rock and roll heart. Truly the most awesome thing I have seen this year on the internet. (I know I have to get out more. lol) Thanks Fred

Wow, Fred, thank you for your comment. Your words really touched me.

[@fudgedunker8256]

Sorry Fred but this an extremely generic comment. There are hundreds of these"this music really touched me, I'm old, brought me to tears blah blah blah" comments and while on the face it of it you're saying something nice, you're actually being rude about a lot of modern musicians who are actually playing classic rock, you just haven't heard of them because they aren't using the fact that they're young and female to get famous on youtube. Good rock music does still exist if you're willing to look for it.

mfleigh No, it's actually your gender bias that is showing. My initial thought had nothing to do with gender. You're the only one who's looking at it that way and I hadn't even considered it until you mentioned it now. I never expect much when I watch covers of Zeppelin or Hendrix on KZbin, as more often than not I'm unimpressed - regardless of gender. You think you're walking on a moral high ground, when in fact, it's people like you that are the problem. I advise you to stop looking for problems where they don't exist and to stop trying to project your imagined moral superiority onto other people just so you can stroke your ego.
