@@josuejosue_24 Hey Josh, I'm pretty much always up for jamming with people under most circumstances, but I'm not sure if Rick and I have ever met... Once the world get's back to normal it is my play to try to connect with lots more musicians so you never know. Anyway thanks for watching mate.
@@AlexHutchingsMusic Hey so since I didn't know who else to ask, Guthrie is a guitar player just like you but he doesn't have a UA-cam channel although there are many videos someone else took of him with millions of views. How come he doesn't have a channel or much socials? What do you think? IF you don't mind answering.
Yup. He's God basically and is satisfied with whatever he's getting which is basically whatever he wants anyway. Now he's stopped giving interviews also. I guess he's getting too old for all that. @@MrZetromix
Both absolute monsters, and, whilst it's not a competition, you have to give creds to GH for basically pioneering this style with his 'Introspection' album. Both absolutely amazing though!
Both players kicking ass! Colourful playing. Alex is having a great gig, hes kicking ass and loving it. Best ive seen him..Greg on fire as always!..Hes always so relaxed
This is far the best jam I've ever heard. I was surprised how soon it ended. So I have to watch again. Greg owns the first half but after 2:24 Alex is on fire. :)
WOW I've always loved Greg Howe, he's my hero and just discovered Alex Hutchings a few months ago, he is REALLY expressive and very talented in many genres. I've probably seen all his videos on YT. love them all. Hope he comes out with an album soon and some advanced guitar lessons. I like his style a lot.
Not many people would be able to stand up there with Greg Howe and not crumble in the company of such a legend - Alex not only gave him a run for his money but also seemingly had a blast at the same time. What an amazing player
IM STILL rolling at this video how you made the guitar fart at the end melodically was fucking incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! two of my fav players of all time
@@AlexHutchingsMusic woow thanks for the answer your are a legend as well! Your one of my favorite fusion players , definitely on the top 5 along with guthrie!
Greg broke the limits of shredding rock guitar, introducing new chromaticism taken from jazz, in opposition to what Holdsworth and McLaughlin, who were already in jazz, did. That´s why all guitar virtuosos are in debt with them. The rest are simply fireworks...though Alex seems here to have understood perfectly his lessons
Hmmm. Interesting perspective. GH is a incredible player and he was at the top of the heap with a plethora of neo classical players. Typically, when a rock player moves toward fusion, his foundation is still rooted in scalular shapes. This doesn't mean he cannot transcend yet his foundation is deeply imbued with scalular clichés. Alex Hutchings is basically a jazz player that shifted towards rock. This gives him a tremendous advantage in his fusionistic vocabulary. I think this video reveals that. Both monsters....but I give the nod to AH.
The rest are simply fireworks" i would thats a pretty simplistic statement, considering some of those fireworks rose higher and were brighter than the originals by a long shot. people like guthrie goven and hutchings are quite frankly, almost monstrous in comparison. especially when it comes to improvisation.
Maaan!! I forgot to Greg Howe!!!! He played some amazing licks for Guitarra Total Magazine in 2003 or 04. If I'm not wrong!!! But i don't recognize him with that hat. Bro two monsters of the strings on that little stage!!!!
I wish someone would take it upon themselves to set up a couple of sessions where these giants have improv jams like this, but properly recorded and filmed. Rick Graham, Guthrie Govan, Martin Miller, Greg Howe, Tom Quayle, Bumblefoot, Tony MacAlpine, Alex Hutchings, Andy James... Every once in a while you come across a raw little clip of such an encounter, on cellphone video, but we really need to see some of these done more crisply!
Alex you should do a video on how to play like that, seriously.. I know it'd help me out a lot, many others too, who struggle with not getting those kind of accents 🤷 Your fusion improv is right on, and Soo awesome and expressive, and the note choices, need I say more, how is it basically done though!? I usually don't ask this question, because many beat around the bush about it😂
this jammin is for inspiration all guitarist this is not a contest, greg howe is not showing here but if u listen to his album u can tell hiss damn good, i like the feelings of hutching and arpegios :)
dude you are commenting a greg howe/alex hutchings video and you have muhmmed suçmez on your profil picture, i like you :) \m/ sorry for my poor english
This is epic!
Thank you, Rick! Just how I felt; and none to recognize this greatness better than you, another guitar monster!
Thanks very much Rick.. All the best
@@AlexHutchingsMusic Hope you'll make a jam with sir Rick .

@@AlexHutchingsMusic Sounds great sir . If that happens that will be the world war3 in music😅👍
Greg Howe, Guthrie Govan, and Alex Hutchings jam will be legendary.
I'd love that too mate. Thanks for watching. 👍🎸🙏
The stage and earth would explode....

@@aadityakiran_she doesn’t want just that . He doesn’t want to be social media guitarist and he doesn’t care basically
Yup. He's God basically and is satisfied with whatever he's getting which is basically whatever he wants anyway. Now he's stopped giving interviews also. I guess he's getting too old for all that. @@MrZetromix
Alex has the mix between acrobatic G3 shred ala Steve Vai, Gilbert, Satriani and the harmonic sophistication of Frank Gambale and Scott Henderson
acrobatic?
@@junjun7994 Do you not see his flexibility? 😂
These two belong in one album. Great Job Alex there are very little people that belong on that stage with a legend like Howe and you nailed it.👍🏾
After seeing this, I was thinking the same thing: They MUST record a duet record like the Howe/Kotzen album!
Thx Victor.
Alex. Your performance was incredible. Nice
Howe vs. Hutchings...no matter who loses, we win.
Good comment mate. ;-)
Man... Alex you just look so happy and excited when you play! I feel happy now haha
Happy as Alex
Indeed it was a huge thrill and an honour to play with this man. ;-)
He’s jamming with greg bro hes made it!! Lol hes a great player and guy Alex
Two of my all-time faves killin' it! Infreakinsane jam! Much respect to both masters! :)
Two monster guitarists...FANTASTIC!
Amazing all round. Alex definitely having a very inspired day, clearly loving every minute of it.
Both absolute monsters, and, whilst it's not a competition, you have to give creds to GH for basically pioneering this style with his 'Introspection' album. Both absolutely amazing though!
Well said….🍻. Minds are blown watching these masters take turns!
Fantastic!
Greg Howe body language is just so super relaxed.
Absolutely, he's a super chilled guy... I on the other hand was an overexcited monkey to be stood next to him... 😂🤣 Thx for watching.
the beats in the background aren't drums, they are actually jaws dropping on the floor
Both players kicking ass! Colourful playing. Alex is having a great gig, hes kicking ass and loving it. Best ive seen him..Greg on fire as always!..Hes always so relaxed
Cheers mate, this was definitely a great day for me to be next to Greg jamming. I'm glad you enjoyed it. ;-)
@@AlexHutchingsMusic u kicked ass dude! Greg was loving you too! Il start watching more of u. Ive subscribed to your page cheers from New Zealand
i could listen to that for hours!
alex, you looks so happy. you make me smile:)
the best thing of Aex is that he shows that he is enjoying what he is doing I think thats something really important when you get on stage
Indeed mate, we should always strive to have fun in life, on and off stage... ;-)
So inspiring to see 2 amazing players having fun trading licks!
These guys are having so much fun! Just watching them puts me on a good foot straight away.Great!
Really great at their field of music.. Love these guys Both
Was fortunate enough to be there...absolutely incredible playing from both!
Greattttt!!!!!!
Alex killed it
Thank you mate, it was quite a scary prospect at the time... but I enjoyed the experience. 👍🙏🎸
Great performance Alex..... You look like you were having a blast too.....Thanks for sharing....
Good Grief, talent overload. Alex is the man!
Thank you Paul, very kind of you to say. ;-)
Awesome video! Two masters of guitar playing! Cheers from Brazil!
awwww yea two of the best! at one time!
This is far the best jam I've ever heard. I was surprised how soon it ended. So I have to watch again. Greg owns the first half but after 2:24 Alex is on fire. :)
Masterpiece!
Greg is one of the best !! Thanks Alex !!!
Beautiful 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

I came for the greg howe, but hutchings is smokin
The same for me. Alex hutchings is brillant. I didn't expected Alex to be so good in direct comparison with the giant Greg Howe.
Thanks so much guys. Glad you enjoyed it.
HOW?
@@NikolausBrocke and don't forget this jam use gregs backing track
@@paulgilbert3139 Good to know.

Mmmmm... shredlicious!
Wicked.
If you can get Howe grinning like that!
Ils font leur numéro... Mais font-ils de la musique ?
Alex has very advanced rhythmic phrasing and he knows harmony too.
Soundnya enakan px Alex Hutchings
Holy Fuck, Alex went full Gambale mode near 1:57
3:22 The moment when a G2 makes everyone happy. See, 8string guitars rock!
