SUMMONER'S TALES...
"I'm impressed with the emergence of excellent female bassists. I've played with both Tal Wilkenfeld and Esperanza Spalding. With Tal it was very funny; we were doing an event in Las Vegas, and we were playing an Aerosmith song - I forget the song - and it was kind of a complicated bass line. And Tal came over and said, 'Sting, it's not quite the way you're playing it'. I really respected her courage to come up to me and teach me the right way to play the part, and I was very grateful. She's an amazing bassist with great ears."
