This performance is just right on so many levels. The start of the song is really good. Starts off as they usually play it. As he plays, you can see him getting deeper into the song. Then when he sits on the stage you can just feel the change. That's where he is getting absorbed into the music, and the improv really starts. Then he gets off the stage, it is pure improv from here. You can tell dad and security are nervous, but the communication between Taj and dad is still there. Then the walk thru the crowd. At one point a light lights up Taj's face and the smile on his face says it all. Dad and security steers him back to the stage. When he is back to the stage he hands off to Nathan. But Taj does not immediately get back on stage. He let's Nathan have a solo of his own. That shows a real maturity and a respect for his band members. When he does come back onstage it is a seamless transition. Then the wind up of the song, again it was pure improvisation. Other than the very start of the song, nothing was rehersed. Stage presence was great. Everything I mentioned is the signs of a well seasoned professional performer. Nothing you would expect from a 14 year old. I only see great things in the future for Taj.

Great performance mate! I LOVED Gary Moore from when i was a teenager and HALF my mates didn't even know what blues was! Or Metal or Rock or Clapton etc etc, this was when I was a youngster and Gary Moore had just released the Album Still Got the Blues! We went to Oxfordstreet in London, HMV main outlet at the time (pre internet!) 1992 still Tapes and Vinyl Records! They had CDs but everyine had tapes still, so I bought BB-King 4-cassette "boxette" of his Greatest hits! Proper OLD SCHOOL! Plus ERIC CLAPTON Album, Guns N Roses two albums/boxettes and a CD, Jimmy Hendrix "Experience" or whatever the 1992 album was called re-released hus greatest hits double cassette, Paul Weller "Stanley Road" Album(classic) and a couple others.. Some time later soemone came to find me,.we ALL walked out my mates wondered where id been for 2 hours while they were in the "Pop" section looking at chart music, i showed them ALL the Albums id boight and they had no idea! Thoight i was mad or something.. anyhow, 6 months later Paul Weller was the best thing simce sliced bread and still is (that was his solo career launch) Hendrix was reintroduced to the world 25 years after he died! And BB King a fee years later caught on.. Clapton ASWELL. Gary Moore, its taken til NOW for many people to fimd his music even older people and Americans havent got a clue, but You are Bringing the Late (GREAT) VIRTUOSO to light and im sure he'd be proud of you 100%! Long story being, DONT LISTEN TO OTHER PEOPLE! LEAD THE SHEEP DONT BE ONE! YOU are a Fantastic Player mate! Want to hear you Play ERIC CLAPTON/CREAM/DEREK and THE Dominos! Also PETER GREENs Fleetwood Mac! (Peter Green, the Greatest Blues playier and Singer of all Time! a White Eastender From London, BBKing said he was "the ONLY MAN TO EVER MAKE HIM CRY" with his playing and singing!) He was GENIUS! Look up "PETER GREEN"!! I was always ahead of my time for music As are You! And I pray you carry on and dont fall fowl to the industry or hangers on! (Sorry for the essay, you just brought when i was your age back mate).. God bless! 💪👌😎☯️⚛️♾️🕉️✝️🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🇭🇲
