We revisit our conversation with Tal Wilkenfeld. Tal boasts a remarkable resume having shared the stage or studio with Jeff Beck, Herbie Hancock, Eric Clapton, Prince and The Allman Brothers, just to name a few of the revered artists who have called on the Sydney born bassist. Tal speaks about her new album - the fantastic "Love Remains" - which finds her fronting material that synthesizes rock, chamber-folk and jazz influences. We discuss epic 'band solos', what Tal brings into leading her own band, juggling improvisation and parts and much more.

We also get an EXCLUSIVE sneak peak of the studio version. Moving to a Music Man Cutlass, Jude gives us insights into the recording of Jefferson Starship's latest album, Mother of the Sun which includes some killer guitar parts, songwriting and performances. Jude also demonstrates and talks us through some of his favourite Eddie Van Halen moments, particularly from Jude's favourite VH record, Fair Warning. It is a great guitar hang!
