Jennifer Batten: ZC3 Michael Jackson Tribute

Ziua Chitarelor http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000094660095 was my first chance to see Jennifer Batten live. In this special video Jennifer Batten made special tribute to Michael Jackson, playing a compilation of the solos from Michael's songs in Jennifer's own unique style. The crowd were highly enthusiastic and deeply appreciative of this gesture. The video does not include the onscreen back projections produced by Jennifer to go along with the show... for that you'll need to go along to one of her shows.

I think I would describe Jennifer as a guitar artist, painting with music and media. Her two handed approach along with chain of effects enables her to conjure up swathes of colour and texture, emotion and grace. I would certainly recommend checking out Jennifer's live show, particularly with the media back projections.

Do any of you know her set of effects?

[lauriemonk]

@guitarlawyer75 She uses a whammy pedal because of the two handed playing. Lots of effect. You can't see it in this video but she has a multimedia video playing along too, which his her own work too.

what's that picture of a kid with a cap moving during the movie? It's weird!

[lauriemonk]

@maximco1050 it's a watermark in the video.

She's the best female guitar player that I know of. I always enjoyed listening to her ever since she was playing guitar for MJ.

no matter how many times i watch this, it gets better

@guitarlawyer75

She uses a Digitech pedalboard with her own custom presets. She not only possesses notes from unknown planets and talks to their people, she`s a genius when it comes to programming !

Long live the Queen !!

Jennifer is incredible, I would say she easily classifies as a female Jeff Beck and more...

[ForeverDangerousBand]

Yes she does.

[BoomerangAutomotive]

Jennifer Batten has a new project............

[gutch666]

She and muriel anderson are the best female players guitar

[MJThrillerForever]

Jennifer Batten!!! I will always love ya!!! xo I love to watch you play guitar. :) hugssss!

[awfulguitarplucker]

it has something oddly attracting as sound and of course the way she plays it makes it all even more unusual! im having the weirdest of guitar-induced fun right now!

[awfulguitarplucker]

most original sounds i ever heard coming from a guitar

i can clearly hear how that Washburn definitely doesnt belong to a commonly-made tier of guitars

[DICEGEORGE]

looks like shes playing to a backing track, not live, no passion, just technique...

I am here because of the Radio 4 program
