I enjoyed it.
RRRRRRRRANT!!!
So did I. Yes, she's hurried (so was Alvin Lee), but rhythmically accurate. And towards the end she slows down and is downright tasteful. If I was in a rehearsal room and a chick would play guitar like that, I'd fall to my knees after the jam and ask her her if I can polish her overknee boots AND become her roadie. (Wo)Man, if you are not allowed to play like that at her age, I wonder when you would ever be? Of course I personally prefer Bonnie Raitt's sublime yet understated style, but Lil' Ori can still grow into that. Or not. It's not a crime to play fast - especially if you do it well and with a decent choice of notes like she does. That said, I generally question the wisdom of Jimi Hendrix covers, but that applied to the hallowed Stevie Ray Vaughn too.
In this ageing forum, anything that is fast, youthful, exhuberant and over-energetic automatically gets the "crap"-stamp - unless it has a garage-amateurish sound of course - with no closer look being afforded the time. Lil' Ori is for instance a lot more accurate, tasteful and dynamic than a young John Sykes was when I saw him with Thin Lizzy in 1983 - and he was hailed as an up and coming guitar god at the time. How many wimmin do you know and/or have played with that can play like her? Most women I know play electric guitar as if it was an acoustic.
BTW: Is she also the chick guitarist in Alice Cooper's current band (when he's not playing with that wife-beatin' drunkard that is!)?
