Hi guys. I love every cover you make. Such good vibes. Can you please cover a Filipino song "Raining in Manila" by Lola Amour. It is very famous here in the Philippines right now.

Love you guys, and I don't wanna sound like a spoiled griper....but three German cities, but no Berlin? I mean has the overhype finally caught up with us over here? I'm actually seriously curious, as someone who's fascinated by the scene here in B, but concerned about the weird economy that seems to be shutting down a bunch of cool things I've loved for years. Venue issues? Just not on your path for travelling efficiency?
Had a blast doin this w Scary Pockets. Lookin forward to playing Monterey Jazz fest this weekend with Scary Goldings feat. John Scofield & Larry Goldings! 🎉

They took all the trees to make guitars and drumsticks, to bring you this song.
Those backing vocals are to die for. Girls.... Thank you.

black women when they sing, they really have the soul. the beauty of voice.
This is terrific! I didn't recognize Tal Wilkenfeld at first. Then I remembered she played in the Jeff Beck band 👍 She's got a great singing voice and plays killer bass 👏👏👏👏

Idem s'il n'y avait pas son nom je ne l'aurais pas reconnu. Je savais qu'elle était une bonne bassiste, je ne savais pas qu'elle était aussi une bonne chanteuse
What a band!!! Love the drummer! THAT'S what is called GROOVE!
I've seen this song covered to death, but this is the funkiest version. This slaps hard. Congrats Tal and those backing vocals. 🔥
Never forget seeing Tal Wilkenfeld playing bass with Jeff Beck. She was incredible, one the best. TY.
What a great voice Tal Wilkenfeld has! Her bass playing on this is also so extremely groovy.
wow! I never would have thought that Tal has equally great singing voice/skills as her bass playing! amazing performance!

I was lucky to see her live with Jeff Beck at Eric Clapton’s Guitar Festival 2007 near Chicago. If you have not seen that performance, I highly recommend. Everyone was blown away including Jeff Beck!
Wow! I hadn't know that Tal Wilkenfeld can sing... till now. Such a warm voice! I love it!!
Fell in love with this girls mad skills on bass when she played with this guitar player named, oh what was it, oh yah, Jeff Beck! Didn't know she had a voice to go with that bass! You rock GURL!!!
Thanks for funkifying my Monday! Can't go wrong with Tal.
Loving that rhythm section!
What an ensemble. Just funkying great! So nice to hear Tal's voice maturing to a stage where she "owns" the material she sings.
Tal, I have listened and loved that song since it came out! I’ll be 70 soon and I have never heard it done better. Thank you so much! Joni would love it!!!!

I'm sure Joni's heard it and sure she loves it as well!
So the lead singer just casually drops a track and the background singers are to die for... WOW! Keep it going!
that promo at the end was actually super funny !! Funky song, hard to cover the vocals on this- joni makes everyone sound inferior, but it was still really fun
OMG, I think I recognized Tal's playing before I even realized it is her. This version is TOO good!
Fan of Joni. Fan of Tal. Scary Pockets-best of both worlds!
A master instrumentalist. And should be HUGE!!! What a talent.
Amazing how Tal has progressed her singing skills over the last years.

LOVE this arrangement... KILLER!! ❤
Tal as a singer is amazing. What a surprise. Background singers amazing. Musicians amazing. This version of Yellow Taxi is 👍👍👍👍💯
Tal, Scary, this pocket is pure gold - you CRUSHED. More please!
Fantastic Tal and everyone! Love how you've got some Meters going on in the verse.
Oh man, the always awesome Scary core with Tal sitting in and my favorite drummer (although they are all incredible) Tamir. This is a dream combo!

My thoughts exactly. All Scary durmmers and bassists are brilliant but Tamir is my favourite and particularly as an Aussie, I've been a huge fan of Tal for years
Tal does a great job of channeling a younger Joni Mitchell on these vocals! Closed my eyes and it almost gave me chills...
A funky bassist with a good singing voice covering a Joni Mitchell classic how could anyone lose 👏👏

Joni did it at a live concert in Paris with some jazz guys. Apparently that song can be done many ways.

Joni had Pat Metheny and other jazz stars backing her up on one tour, amazing shows!
Background voices really add to the coziness of it all, love it.
Tal Wilkenfeld is amazing!!
Tal!!!! We need a long session with Tal and Scary Pockets!!
Thank you for existing Scary Pockets!
Wow never knew Tal as a singer but this is good!
'Little Feat' memories of groove, Thanks Tal, from an old West Aussie.
Tal is not only a great bass player but she also sings with such a feeling... Great arrangement of the piece. And kudos to the choir singers!
Tal sings? That's new to me! Good news, indeed, great voice!
Scary Pockets, Tal Wilkenfeld, and Joni Mitchell? Almost broke my mouse clicking so hard.
That´s an extremely legit Funkafication of that beautiful song! Thank you guys for having the incredible Tal!!!
Very funky drums, I like it!
That Tamir Barzilay is the best pocket merchant out there. What a drummer. Sublime...

Have been enraptured by his drumming since the cover of Toxic with Kenton Chen - just exquisite touch
This groove is like a black hole; it's so attractive that even light can't escape it! I keep on coming back to it, I can't escape from it. So much amazing talent per m²! 🤘
Absolute beasts. All of you.
Bouncing between Joni's ethereal voice and Tal's funk-infused groove - this cover is a musical bridge generations needed. 🌉🎶 If this doesn't inspire a new wave of music lovers, I don't know what will. #EargasmicFunk
Tal Wilkenfeld and Larry Goldings...too much mastery for only 2:40 minutes of music, we want more!
I think this is my favorite Tal! And those BG singers! Whoo! Love me some Scary Pockets.
Absolutely fantastic 🎸👏🏻
That bass tone with the Hammond OMFG soooo sticky ♥
Man, Tal is fire. I just love everything she does.
That is some greasy cool drumming right there! Great rendition.
I always end up making that funky ass bass face when I watch @TalWilkenfeld play. Thank you for this!
Hot shit Tamir is killing it on this one

Great version, transformed that incredible swinging rhythm of Jonis playin to another dimension.
Those pockets were scary deep!! I didn't know that Tal wasn't just one of the most amazing bass players but also such a great singer! Truly awesome, love it, love you all!
Great arrangement of a great Joni tune! Love Tal's vocal and of course her soulful bass playing!
Can’t believe I missed this when it dropped, actually angry about it lol! So smooth 🙌
Wow how badass is ths?? What a groove! Tal is such a monster artist!!
Absolutely brilliant. Great vibe, super talented musicians, amazing singer. And just remember, breast is best.
Playing bass and singing is not easy.......great job!
You made my day today, young people! Too much good stuff in this video to mention anything or anyone individually. Great work!
YES !!!! New Tal Wilkenfeld music even if it's a cover, it's GOLD !!
shit. This is the scariest pocket in a loooong time. I've paused it about a minute in to say I'm putting it on my mt rushmore of pockets.
Well this was just recommended by KZread, and I'm glad I stepped inside to see what you guys are all about! What a fantastic arrangement of this classic song, one that I've played live too over the years, but never quite like this. The musicianship is first rate and these backing singers are pure class!
wow....funky to the MAX ! Love it
Tal is a fuckin' badass. Just all around incredible.
This entire video including the vinyl ad at the end made my year. Thank you. LOVE Tal Wilkenfeld
What an amazing version...I'm sure Joni will love this. 🎸🎸
Tal has a pleasant,pleasing voice.Frequency is nice.
I wasn't sure if the credits were saying Larry Goldings was playing a prophet or is one, what a legend
It's nice to see Tal back on Bass again....!!
Oh this was phenomenal in ways that will take a few watches to appreciate fully
Wow! Tal's voice has gotten so much better. Nice.
LOVE this! Thanks Tal & Pockets!
Tal is SO SO SO AWESOME! And THE ARRANGEMENT is beyond funkalicious! Bravo, you guys!
This is just fantastic! Scary Pockets clicking on all cylinders. Talent all the way around!
Tal is amazing. Full stop.
Nice moving groove. Raw talent and original arrangement!❤
I melt every time I see TW perform. She is a gift from heaven for certain.
Excellent rendition of this classic, Tal and Scary Pockets!
Love Tal
that octave on a synth is so great!
With all due respect ..The best vocal performance I've heard from You Tal ..really suits you,sound brilliant . Super talent moving along beautifully.
Just like usual. This is a parade of the greatest bass players playing. I love you guys. Thanks.
the overhead cam shots are a **brilliant** idea! fantastic tune, love it!
I read one of the comments on an other video of Tal’s and one comment said Tal isn’t a good singer. He better get his ears and brain checked. She just keeps getting better. That’s what happens when you practice and preform live. Great jazzy voice!
what an immortal Tal, She's not get old!
I was smiling this entire performance ~ Tal is The TRUTH...! funny spot at the end, I would totally party with y'all!!
Nice, Nice, Nice! What a great groove and Tal, Oh My!
Great to see Tal and Tamir together again... they have that special musical connection, counting beats from the same source.
This was probably the best one yet. Super funky and twisty!
Randomly bumped into this. I LOVE THIS!!! So HAPPY FEELING in the song, yet also some message there to chew, but humor element included.
Finally a cover of this song that does it justice! Always a joy to hear Tal, such a talent.
OK "JeffGPT" is a brilliant sketch
TW gone funk 😎 You go girl ❤❤❤❤ Make JM proud Love 🎸 Remains 😍 🌷🕊
Tal's got a great singing voice too!? Oh man... She's unstoppable!
Awesome version. Tal you're a gem also while singing. Congrats all
Smokin version of Big Yellow Taxi. Tal in the pocket, in the groove as usual.
It's great to see and hear this phenomenal bassist again! I also love the drummer's minimalist set...
Old enough to remember when the original came out. I like this!
