  • Talent? Go and see Joe Bonamassa at this age or other great guitar player, not him...

  • this kid is better than anyone in his age group... people are so jealous of talent

  • i've seen better

  • hes young yes hes been told and shown certain styles kids dont come into their own till late teen years if he plays his cards right when he finds himself he will rule .....hell stevie stole most of his licks from albert king and jimmy vaughn the kid will be just fine

  • This kid oozes swag.

  • Enough! This lad has picked up the guitar, and is now on his way. Jimi would love him just for that alone. Don't be jealous.....pick up a guitar and have a go.

  • i used to enjoy talon playing voodoo child.....until his singing fucked it up

  • This kids sure has the showmanship... He can play too!!!

  • T-man,You are very good, you need to know is that there must be mindful of bad coments, they come from people who forget that worthless jealous of age what you have, keep going, you get all up near Lance Lopez Randy Hansen and Rama Satria

  • Who the hell cares if it's not perfect! The combined age of the bassist and guitarist is less than the time I have been playing! Hey, nobody sounds great live -- good maybe, but rarely great; unless you are the Eagles.

  • And a little child shall lead them... Enuf Sed. Heard him when he was playing at age 7-8. Now he's 10. Imagine at 15. He played the crap out of that Hendrix standard. Loves what he does too. Many of us will never know what that feels like. Keep it up, lad.

  • dang he is good

  • T MAN!!!! love it! 13 years old and would pwn me in a guitar solo battle.... im 17, keep it going dude!

  • You're amazing Tallan. Don't let anyone tell you different.

  • This is amazing this kid is my idol!

  • I can pretty much guarantee you Jimi couldn't do that when he was 10. Kid got game. Deal with it. Does that translate into some kind of Vaughan or Hendrix? Maybe not. But I can't think of anyone I've seen that had those tools that early. We wait and see how this turns out. Playing other peoples shit don't cut it in the grown-up's world. He has to develop his own shit. Good luck.

  • @ingve1974  Well said....hope this kid keeps growing....in stature as well as in abilities.

  • When this kids hits his teenage years and his hands get bigger and he gets stronger... he's gonna create some absolute world class riffs

  • omg this kid is talented,wow all i can say damn good,keep jamming n playing the music you love!!!!

  • this kid oozes swag

  • @bananasack28 This kid oozes 2nd hand budweiser and untimely copied licks like hes using tracing paper . It's gone to his head to early he'll be washed up in 10 years.

  • @VisibleAudioSF jealous much?

  • He's talented, for sure. But for some reason he bores me. Though he can play better than I can right now! Kudos!

  • This kid is being raised perfect, only the best for Mr.Latz(Tallan)

  • Comment removed

  • It's nice to see that not all kids are corrupted from today's music/garbage.

  • hey YO K J

  • I seen grown ups play guitar way worse, this kid is good regardless, whats the first thing you played? (Deep Purple) or (Hot Cross Buns) This kids playing f*$king shit that started (Rap) (Hip Hop) (Rock and Roll) (Metal) Tell me different plz stick to (HD) porn if you don't realize talent.

  • @VicRatza You probably listen to shitty DUBSTEP and crappy chav rave music, asshole

  • Work on his timing. If he's going to play in a band with other musicians, he needs to remember they're there.

  • you dont start out playing like the best of them it takes practice.

  • @anguscole1 not for this guy...

  • Listen everyone he is fantastic for his age yes but compare him to the older folks is wrong, he is young so he's not going to be as good as his idols, he has 4 years under his belt which is not a long time playing. jimi hendrix played for so many years as well as the like. so give him 7 more years or so and he will progress so much if he sticks with it and does not get burned out to quick.which i dont know if that hapens with kid stars. but dont say he sucks when he doesnt he is good for his age

  • @VicRatza Joe Bonamassa didn't have the best of vocals when he was young, as for the music, I loved it, its all a matter of taste, he's only 10, he has years ahead of him.

  • Wow. If he's can do that at 10 years old.  This kids good.

  • @DISPENSER4HIRE Wrong..

    

  • Holy crap, this guy is AMAZING!!!!!!!

  • A technical virtuoso, but needs some age, and life experience to get the feeling, and soul in his music. Still incredible.

  • Reminds me a bit of Derek Trucks in his youth -- though Trucks was constantly surrounded by royalty with the Allman Brothers and all. Derek was definitely more spot on, but look at him now: out of this world. This kid or anyone else who puts in the work can be right up there, if they stay dedicated. I wonder if he's discovered Derek Trucks or become interested in the slide yet.

  • Dude this kid fuckin shreds!

  • Oww! That guitar got seriously owned! If it wore a skirt it wouldn't be able to walk straight for a week!

  • i gotta a friend who plays guitar like that but i own him in guitar hero, even slash said his son owns him in guitar hero's and yu knw how good he is

  • @ChineseOliveGarden00 wow... you're lame

  • @MrJdvance hey guess what... yu can fo FUK YURSELF

  • hey anyone notice when you say his first name and last name fast it almost sounds like "talentless". not saying he is, but wierd coincidence right?

  • wow... 10 year old does a near perfect cover for jimi hendrix... that just blew my mind. i suppose its only a matter before those 10-18 year olds start commenting on his videos: "hey im 14 and i listen to hendrix and CCR my friends all listen to blech"

  • FLAMES!!! like those shorts u woreeee at camp!:D

  • his voice is all i can really put against him and it has'nt really fully developed so he's probably going to blow me away on that front too in about half a decade.

  • THE CHILLS GIMME THOSE CHILLS!

  • u know hes gonna get the pussy when hes a lil older :D

  • Holy Crap!!! Can't wait til he's in his twenties!!

  • will you marry me in 20 years???

  • the only person to ever bring those chills to me like that wasa stevie ray vaughan god bless and r.i.p.

  • I LOVE THIS KID!

  • Sheesh, this kid's young enough to be my grandson and nails some of Jimi's classic riffs. Dig it. Stay cool, kid, and you'll go places.

  • Sheesh, this kid's young enough to be my grandson and he does rips out some of Jimi's classic riffs. Dig it. Stay cool, kid, and you'll go places.

  • What a talent. I only hope he innovates and takes it to another level. Stay off drugs kid .

  • The kid is kinda good for his age and I like that he's not afraid to pause sometimes before he plays something else.

    But... I don't like that people say that he's a FANTASTIC blues-player, cause I don't hear so much blues in what he plays.

    And one more thing, it seems like now when he's getting a little famous he stops practice cause he thinks like he doesn't need to, cause I don't hear so much different in his playing now in his new videos than I did in his old ones.

    That's just what I think.

  • I love that this kid gets the last laugh! All the jealous haters will still be bitching long after this kid is rockin' success and everyone else will be the little insignificant flies that get all smashed up on the window down the highway while he's going lightning speed to destination-in-your-face. Got love it, I do!!

  • It's an interesting piece of life. The more talent someone has the more the world hates you. He's got a longggg way to go. He's just a child and he's gonna get even better. HA!

  • I'm amazed at all the negative comments.. Wow! Lol. People are so jealous and envious, it's mind boggling how threatened people feel over some little kids talent! The world's going to s*it. Jealous over a 9 year old really?? He's got incredible talent - get over it and get a life!

  • @giaktte7

    i think it is not about talent, it is about time you spend with your instrument. He started playing real early and never get's tired of it.

    I think everyone can reach that stage of playing in 6 years maybe even in 4 years.

    What makes it so amazing is that he is just 10 years old in this video.

    Most kids start playing in this age and if they pratice as much as this kid they will be as good.

  • @giaktte7 - You know what else amazes me? How someone posts something negative, and it's automatically taken as jealous. I may not be famous, but my friend Drew told me I'm good. Honestly, I don't think he's that good. Decent, yes. Great? No.

  • i hope he´ll stick to playing with soul instead of posing... :/

  • @jedimyndtr1x fuck bieber, this kid have no time for bieber, btw who the fick is bieber?

  • The drummer looks no older then 12.

  • @DethklokK0 the drummer clearly has the facial hair and features of a man in his mid-forties

  • hes a very good guitar player

  • we HAVE to introduce him this boy it could turn out to save music in the future

    /watch?v=LfoAWZMGeVg&feature=r­elated

  • i bet he so hittin that bass player

    

  • i cant even begin to say how much of a faget this kid is, he is so young what can he hav the fucking blues bout the cancellation of barney

  • @MrMrLsutton Wow u are soo jealous. Awww its adorable! haha. ur just pissed off tht he's 100000000000X better than you could ever hope to be...and he's only 9!!! So go cry in the corner u little bitch

  • @MrMrLsutton ur a fag, u put this on every single video of his! ur a ass

  • @jedimyndtr1x Best Comment Ever :D :D

  • YES he can play guitar but NO he cannot sing

  • Playin' the crowd, love it !! You just woke up Jimi ! --- Rock-on T-Man !!

  • if he's the future of blues i'm the past the present and the future

  • Tallen....born.....September 22, 1997 is an American blues guitar player,,see wiki

  • @happygleason WIKI is wrong on the date. It's suppose to be 1999.  Thanks for letting us know.

  • @TManLatz OK,,,,,,,,,BESIDES MYSPACE DO YOU HAVE WEBSITE?

  • @TManLatz u sure? I thought it was 2000.

  • That's just blown my mind....

  • this kid is a freakin maniac. the confidence, the talent, the arrogance, the innovation. gotta love what the future holds for what is already an amazing talent.

  • it doesnt matter if he become´s the best or not he has talent and he enjoys it good work kid keep up doing it

  • There IS hope for rock n roll! Note the lack of background dancers flouncing around.

  • Too insane for me to make a proper like comment

  • Sweet guitar one. What pedal is that kid using

  • @petie58 Its a wah pedal, not sure which one though - my guess is a Dunlop Crybaby.

  • He should get a strat

  • this kid can fucking shred. 'nuff said.

  • He should get a Les Paul.

  • he was born 11 miles from where stevie ray was killed 7 years before.

  • I'm 6 years older than him and he's still my inspiration for guitar.

  • pffft and they say beiber has talent !!!!!

  • @elmir624 Hahahahahahah! Do they? That's just weird. :¬?

  • @wordreet thats what i say :P

  • no voice but with those fingers he doesn't need one! Damn!

  • @geminijwt

    he's 8 years old, so what kind of voice can you expect from such a young kid? I think this kid is a natural wonder, and i'm sure that he wil become the world best guitar player ever, and that every talented musician

    wil love to work with him.

  • @3DPeter he´s 13

  • @mrAdalkall

    not at the time when this video was made.

  • @mrAdalkall Tallan is 11 now. Not 13.

  • this child fuckk justin bieber in ASS,this child is a STAR justin bieber is a gay...:))

  • i've seen this kids videos ever and he rocks. my only criticism is that i hate his guitars and sunglasses etc, but hey, he's 10, if that was me, i'd be doing the same haha :D

  • @skillzdatkillz900

    may be "blues affectation' or it could be that the lights bother him

  • holly shit that kid can play

  • He's great, but I like Quinn Sullivan better

  • can't wait till this kid is older, like holy fuck!!!

  • this guy is absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!

    have watched like two hours of his performances ...

    wow.

    seriously!

  • Let's see a Joe Satriani Cover, something easy and soulful. Always with You Always with Me is not too hard but it'll introduce you to those cool Satch legatos and that one easy/awesome tapping section.

    I believe in you, let your inner shredder out!

  • Once again Tallan proves he is the new King of Soul.

  • This kid is crazy good

  • the kid is INSANE amazing

  • Sit down old people! This kid is insane. Stop getting in the way! I can say this! I'm old! I want to slap the old guy who keeps popping up!

  • Son, you need to meed Phil X. You could learn very much young grasshopper.

  • @joshhohensee Don't tell him that or he may never stop bugging his dad to buy him some Fretted Americana guitars. And those DBZ's can't be too cheap.......

  • @GuillermoSmyser he has endorsements already so, it probably IS cheap to get all the gear he's got.

  • Love this kid he is a leg#nd in the making as long as he doesnt fall for wrong paths in between....... God bless you kiddo.

  • yeahh.....cuz guitar hero means you have talent.........fail..

  • Who the F**** is Justin Bieber ?????? This kid rules !

  • I can see the concept of a Guitar Hero (that isn't a video game) will come back when this guy gets going! He will be the revival of real music!!

  • this guy will have SOOO many bitches when he hits high school...

  • I wonder if he's this good at guitar hero??

  • I wonder if he's this good at guitar hero??

  • kid, don't let the masses fool you. they will rob you for all you got. keep it real man.

  • i can see this kid winning a steve vai in a guitar duel xdd

  • When this kid starts to shave, he'll have a long career behind him, and in front of him...crazy.

  • solid

    

  • Is that Lance Lopez?????

  • ten years old with the soul of a fifty seven year old salesman. I hope this kid starts to branch out soon. TM keeping realism alive. Dudes like cesium isotope in the titanium watch of a navy seals landscape painter. Love it though.

  • This kid is 1 in a million. Or mabey a billion. Mom and dad should enroll him in vocal lessons to get his voice on par with his guitar playing. He could go far. I wish him nothing but the best.

  • Just imagine how badly he owns his friends at Guitar Hero.

  • @simcant LOL! That may be the funniest comment I have ever seen on youtube!

  • @simcant <3

  • Outstanding guitarist....

    

  • get your bald ass head out of the way. Nobody wants to see you. The kid is amazing.

  • jimi would be proud

  • I wish i played guitar like that. And i'm freakin 14 years old men, this sucks i'm going to take a lesson.

  • The next Steve Vai or Joe Satriani. Very good skills.

  • lots of talent, no soul. hes trying to hard, and it shakes the soul out. and jimi needs soul

  • @andrewarden The soul and feeling will come with age I think. There is already far more feeling in this version of the song than the one I just watched from 3 years earlier.

    At the minute he is playing exactly what he is learning, but as he gets more comfortable he will loosen up. Watch the vids of him when he was 7-8 next to this and you can already see it happening

  • @andrewarden lawl, you lack power of observation. watch some videos of him, the way his face puckers and curls up when the vibes stimulate his eardrums, that's pure soul man

  • @andrewarden

    Dude don't confuse this kids weak and I must admit annoying voice with NO SOUL. When this kids voice developes in 4 -6 years I believe he is going to blow the shit up! The kid feels the emotion and its obvious based on videos going back 3 years ago.

    I hope that voice developes in to something good, because he is someone who deserves stardom!

  • @otraxo you said it, as soon he passes puberty and his voice comes in he will be fine. i give him all the props for doing what he does... i couldn't!

  • Swwwaaggggg

    

  • Showing off? Sure, so do I. Any lead guitarist who says they don't show off is a liar. Good for 11 yrs? Yes. My take on this? Too much making sounds for the sake of making sounds, I stopped about 2/3 through. I liked his tone & feel at 8 more than this. Will he get better? Who knows? He might find girls are more fun than practice, or buy the hype and think whatever he plays is great, or burn out. can I put my money where my mouth is? Check my vids, if you like, enjoy, if not, go in peace.

  • @julianmokhtar i agree with this guy right here, here to hoping he gets better, but from the looks of this, he might just be going a different dirrection.

  • Don't hate! This kid rocks. There is always better talent somewhere out there. But I like the fact that this kid is living his dream at such an early age. He's earning it and there are no guarantees in life! Go, kid, go!!!

  • Don't hate! He's ten years old living a dream. How many have a chance at that? I'm a bit jealous myself, but this *ish rocks! Go little white kid, go!!!

  • Not to be too rough on the kid... but there are far better kids right here on youtube, and probably many more not having their skills flaunted on the internet. I know it's an unfair comparison, but at this age, Paco De Lucia was destroying peoples minds with ridiculous flamenco awesomeness. There's also that little kid that played Samba Pa Ti in front of Carlos Santana. The list goes on, and a large portion of them are doing more than running just through the pentatonic scale sloppily. Im sorry.

  • It's funny. Everyone gives Hendrix credit for voodoo child but I say the original is now the third best version after Stevie Ray Vaugn's and Tallan's.

  • @Kruezoraxe They give him credit because he WROTE it. But if you like the covers of it, that cool. :) I personally love this one.

  • Hendrix has given from heaven a part from his talent to this kid

  • You'd expect kids his age to like all that Linkin Park, Avenged Sevefold, Shortstack, Good Charlotte and Disturbed crap, but he listens to Hendrix, and can play as well as Jimi Hendrix.

  • I hate this kid, he's better than me and 9 years younger.

  • I don't understand the former negative comments- yes, there are other precocious child prodigies out there (the young Sinti guitarist Jimmy Rosenberg playing verbatim Django Reinhardt solos at the age of ten comes to mind) but that doesn't lessen this young fellow's incredible gift.

  • dude i friggen love this kid. he practiced, got to vegal in that got talent, totally deserves it. rock on man. fuck justin bieber.

  • In 5 years when no one cares about Justin Beiber, this kid will still be growing in his ability and talent.

  • First tiem he saw Joe Satriani he told his Dad that this is what he wanted to do. Damn, oh Damn does he do it gloriously well! I think we are really blessed to be here and to see him grow from a kid to a Legend.

  • First tiem he saw Joe Satriani he told his Dad that this is what he wanted to do. Damn, oh Damn does he do it gloriously well! I think we are really blessed to be here and to see him grow from a kid to a Legend.

  • Hendrix would be damn proud of the T-Man!

  • holy shit.... isnt that the truth. why is bieber famous when this kid can shred like this. wow.

  • I'm so jealous of that kid, what a gift :0 That kid is hopefully gonna be a legend in the future :D

  • Thank GOD this kid never got guitar hero for xmas

  • What an incredibly talented young man! I have been following him now for 4 years and he never fails to astound. He's got that "scary" good talent. Like Hendrix.

  • Unbelievable.

  • the reason this kid is so damn good at the guitar is because he learned to talk to and through his guitar! most guitar players out there never learn how to do that, so with that in mind we have to give some mad props to this underage guitar god

  • I remember seeing this kid on the news when he was younger then this and he is now getting that swag you can definitely tell. Keep on rockin!!!!!

  • lol and why is justin bieber famous?!?!?!?!

  • @omnicide12 EXXXACCTTLLYY !!!
