This is the best guitarist around male or female, Jennifer Batten. She's toured with Michael Jackson, Jeff Beck, and others.

Still Got my T-Shirt from 1991 Never Worn, Signed (London guitar Show) She did a Workshop...... So got to see loads of her playing 4 feet away ....

heh awesome

[seriouslydubwise]

i feel one should play every piece of music from the soul with heart,i think this rendition displays little to that effect,quite clunky and tonaly muddy.its one of those examples of "not learning the notes.....but learning why they are important to be played".thankyou for your enquiry,i hope ive been of some assistance.p.s. im not just trying to rag on jennifer batten,i think she is quite accomplished in theory knowledge,she just shows the classic signs of a lick-learner/showoff

@purpledynasty You're right. She's not playing her signature guitar here. unless her old guitar litterally burned out, she's totally testing out a new guitar here.

[Funnypandalonies]

@seriouslydubwise how do you get soul from a classical song like flight of the bumble bee?

[TerraDigitalMedia]

I love her technique, but I must say her overall musicality is always strained for me. Somewhere between the tone and the feel..it gets lost. I'm sorry..MHO

[Dennemark]

You can tell she likes to tap long thick sticks with strings on em.
