Tal Wilkenfeld, protege of Jeff Beck

Tal Wilkenfeld took up guitar at 14 in her native Sydney, before switching over to the electric bass just three years later. “I’ve always just picked up any instrument and been able to play it," she said.  Only 24 yrs old, she is playing her awesome Bass solo (below) in Cause We've Ended As Lovers with Jeff Beck' s band at Ronnie 's Scott in 2007. Her presence was especially remarkable considering how often Beck has chosen to play in a trio format (with drummer Terry Bozzio and keyboardist Tony Hymas) in recent years, eschewing a bass player altogether.

Johnny Depp & Steven Tyler may write some songs together

Johnny Depp has always enjoyed working on some odd projects, but his latest endeavor may be his strangest yet -- working on songs with 'Idol' judge and Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler.

"We've been hanging out here and there," Depp told Extra (via MSN). "He's someone I've admired greatly for such a long time. The idea of writing songs with him is a dream come true."

The pairing isn't totally out of left field. The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actor's roots in rock 'n' roll go back to early 1993, when Depp joined Butthole Surfers frontman Gibby Haynes to form the band P. He has since performed with the Kids and Brit band Babybird.

According to the Boston Herald, Depp recently announced that he would like to play the enigmatic lead character of Aerosmith in a biopic. "I would give it a shot, why not?" Check out Depp rocking out -- cigarette in his hand -- while playing the bass below
