THE DRUMMER KILLED IT!

You know a guitarist is an absolute master when he can improvise lines like those while having so much fun doing it.

Wow, I love how you blend all those chromatic jazzy licks with an almost metal, kinda progressive, dynamic. You are an awesome player, it's one of my Hanckock favorite song!

Alex Hutchings is a serious contender for the top line guitarists list! He has taken sweep-style picking and made it an acceptable melodic addition to jazz/funk/fusion. Sweeping can become extremely boring because it is a fixed pattern that must be repeated again, and again!

The drummer is the best here. Seriously.

Hutchings, Hutchings... what a beast! 🎸🎸👏👏👏👏

2:32 I see Alex is a Frank Gambale fan. Awesome playing throughout from everyone!

This is awesome... I've had it bookmarked for a year, and just keep coming back to it!

What a superb guitar performance and a great supporting lineup.

Haven’t watched this for a while but Alex us amazing. I’ve not seen anyone feels and be one his music like Alex does. He’s an amazing musician.

The fusion dancer! Lol. He's just being himself. Just killer playing. On fire!

This is the highest form of music, respect for these mucisians.

awesome playing! your drummer and bass are beast too. so locked in and nuanced. damn... much much respect

EVERYONE killed it!

My father was like Kevin, he could play anything and everything. He was also like you. God gave him a overflowing plate of musical talent. He achieved a Master's degree in music and could play any instrument well except for a pedal steel guitar, which as he said was from Mars or somewhere other than earth LOL😂. Listening to you play gives me great pleasure Alex, much like listening to my Father play his classical music, or boogie. Loved the Boogie! Thanks again for sharing your extreme talent, how about some old school Boogie next?

Amazing, and a contender for the best guitar face ever!

Unexpectedly, the best version I've heard of this song. Alex was amazing!

Sheeesh!! So you guys have been playing together since pre-school days, right? 😂🤣 I grew up 50 years ago with that Herbie stuff (along with Sextant and Crossings!!) - it is just infinitely thrilling to see you guys with this music the way you are all these years later. Thank You. Music, the universal constant - along with y’all’s power of reinvention. Wind ever at your backs 🖖🏾

It is one of the best jam i Ever seen

Sounds so good together. You cats were fancy-tastic. Biddy- biddy bop!

Incredible.What a great Groove/Band.

Assolutamente mostruosi... Braviiiiiiiiii🎖️🎖️🎖️🎖️

Just amazing as is everything Alex does.

If Joe Pass was alive to see this, I think he would smile at the improvisation which can be heard and the performer interaction that can be seen!! Thank you for recording and uploading this Alex, I really dig this!!!

Such a cool, cool take on a classic! Whooo!

absolutely brilliant playing from all and great feeling too!

@Alex Hutchings this is the one mate!!! Cheers. Keep on the wizardry,

AWESOME!!

That bassist put in Thai folk bass lick on some part, cool stuff. Alex was smooth and groovy as always.

Cripes! That was transcendent, and amazingly youth-inducing. Hutchins and entourage surpassed Zappa and Grapelli in this medium. Wow. 😃

Much better than I had any right to expect

Wonderful performance!

Everybody sounds great. Everybody other than the bass player sounds fantastic. Everybody other than the bassist, guitarist, and keyboardist sounds incredible.

You are the best Alex and the band.

Joder, esto es increíble, los músicos de jazz son unos fenómenos.

master!!!

wow! Alex you better hire this guys. you sound amazing together

2.09 - allan holdsworth all over. this was fucking sick, had the pleasure of meeting alex at the bristol international jazz and blues festival, he was such a nice guy, invited us to the after-party/jam before wondering off and chatting with other festival goers, fair play that man

Great guitar sound

🎉🎉🎉🎉 espetáculo!!!!

What a band! :-)

Alex great great! But the drummer also very very good. Keys and bass too!

Never forget to pee before going up the stage, kids.

very very quickly becoming one of my new favorite players.

sound live on stage very good.

Muito bom. Parabéns.

alex you are inspirational

I mean this as a complement. Alex is SO under rated. Is that one or two words?

Alex ...... Wow

Brilliant

bravo pour l'excellente prestation du batteur

Masters!

Wow!

Kevin has a bit of Greg Lorber in his style. Nice playing. Bass player does not feel the vibe and thus never cuts loose at solo time. That moment is called "red tabby cat" time when the "cat" needs to go crazy for a moment. Missed it. Missing heart and skill.

niice, i love jam with this music

coolness!!

You are quite the dude, dude! Merry Holidays.

Excelente cada días me trastornó Más con la música y el jazz, cada vez me Pregunto que hubiese dicho mi abuelo. Me habría colgado del parron? O se habría colocado un cintillo en su pelada? Increíble esto me trasforma ....

Brilliant !

Intéressante .. cette version ...bien jouée.....

nice beatle❤️

Grat.................tank you Friends............

Awesome.............

My Audio Technica headphones is happy with the drummer.

omfg!!!!!! really amazing!!!!

Perfekt !

Master..genials!!!!

Chapeau,chapeau,chapeau for everyone! High Difficult Music Style from the First Choice, first Class, first Cream ……but so Easygoing performing……HUTCHI - are the music genres , you don’t know ??? 😮 My goodness, why, why ,why …….do I have to suffer for a happiness ? It’s so divine until it hurts ! Wonderful Pain ! 🔨🎸 PS. What can I do for You for this EXPERIENCE? Maybe COOK 👨‍🍳?🤣

the ultimate

Groovy

You guys destroyed Cantaloupe Island. Wiped off the map.

the best

Virtuo 😍

Great stuff yet again.

There's certainly some Frank Gambale in Alex's playing here!

great tune for guitar improv

I'd love to hear this unit play 'Black Nile' by Wayne Shorter. 🤣

Beastly

wow...

parabéns top top topzeira

awesome sound. congrat!

best:)👋👋👋👋

Dat drummer!

Great guitar palying mate....

big ups to rhythm section

Q: how to avoid solely playing the butternotes? A: just do the same arpeggio one fret up or one fret down

Is Kevin really Inthawong Band ? He seems to fit in very well to me ;-)

Whole band's good, but that drummer's tight, man.

What a crisp band! I just don't understand the circuit this guy's on. It seems 95% of his material here on KZfaq is either him in a studio, or else appearances at trade-shows, malls, or conventions or something. I guess it's not his focus, but I don't know why he's not on big concert stages the way you see gigs by Al Jarreau or Lee Ritenour, for instance.

Do you still have this axe with you mr alex ? You should play with this guitar more often, this guitar is pretty sick !

Leider geil!

Alex, you'll break that thing and we won't buy you another one!!!!

Any material or approaches you can recommend for an uneducated metal player to start getting some jazz gears turning? Your playing has totally changed my mindset, I can't get enough

When playing single coil pickups does Alex compress them?

Man, Jack Black is awesome :)

black man's groove with a black man's soul

what? Alex Akina?

SWEEEEEEET as usual Alex. Awesome band too. Really admire your playing a LOT. What kind of guitar is that? Looks cooool.

Can someone transcribe this so I can try to learn it for 20 minutes then give up and never touch it again
