Badass Female Guitarist!!!!

[cam elle toe]

she is famous because of her father

Well, I've never heard of her father, who is he?
Methinks some of you guys are a tad put out that a FEMALE (and a young one at that) can play better than you can

I couldn't possibly hold it against every guitar player better than me, there just aren't enough hours in the day

Nah, I know I'm not a good guitarist... certainly not a lead guitarist.

and what you're NOT saying is that if she wasn't woman, no one would have heard of her...right? and thats what I dont agree with.

Now you're putting words into my mouth. I'm saying that she'd be considered further down the list if she wasn't a woman. There are plenty of male guitarists that are better than her. That​ is my point.

Orianthi had a single that was popular here. Is this the first you're hearing her?

I just did...look up.

She's had a single out....its crap. Typical "prefab for radio" pop shit.

I liked this song.

I've actually known about her for a while... someone posted some of her stuff at another forum a few years back.

A lot of people don't know that she's more known for her guitar skills than that song.

If I had to pick a reason for why I might not listen to her out of choice, although I like her style and tone, it's that she's not doing anything different.

It's ironic Santana digs her, because he seems to be stuck in a cycle of doing these collaborative albums. Which is a real shame, because he was really pushing peoples boundaries and making great music, particularly around the Caravanserai era. It's the same reason my favourite Clapton album is 461 Ocean Boulevard. Everybody waited 4 years for the big guitar god to release an album, and what he releases had not a single guitar solo.

The Clapton album was a big let down for me.
