Cantaloupe Island Live - Alex Hutchings & Kevin Inthawong Band. Herbie Hancock Cover

[@lawrencegenereux8567]

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

[@TheCastagne]

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!

[@filipdinevmusic]

THE DRUMMER KILLED IT!

[@matejfele9971]

Definitely he's the highlight.

[@rohanroll]

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

[@elmolewis9123]

What a superb guitar performance and a great supporting lineup.

[@AlexHutchingsMusic]

Thanks man.. Much appreciated

[@traindiesel7005]

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

[@AlexHutchingsMusic]

Thank you mate. 👍 Yeah they're cool .😎

[@danielroman.guitar]

master!!!

[@matejfele9971]

The drummer is the best here. Seriously.

[@johnanderson9494]

His name is so long they don't announce it.

[@alienacionparentalesmaltra9968]

Matej Fele You play drums very badly, and you are not a musician with the knowledge to evaluate these musicians, seriously (I have seen your walks) 😉

[@conceitomusic1]

Is true!

[@notyetskeletal4809]

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

[@AlexHutchingsMusic]

Cheers MAte. 👍🎸🙏

[@tylerl1980]

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

[@davy755]

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

[@chuckbenton9098]

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

[@danaeverhart6487]

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?

[@winojuju]

It is one of the best jam i Ever seen

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.

Wonderful performance!

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

[@matthewxcurry]

and pal!

[@Jimmy001]

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!!!

[@stevenfimmel6933]

I think that's true. I'd love to see Alex and James Muller (Aussie jazz / jazz fusion) get together. That would be worth seeing.

[@localpm]

Incredible.What a great Groove/Band.

[@jackdolphy8965]

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 🖖🏾

Masters!

[@localpm]

Just amazing as is everything Alex does.

[@geetarnut]

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!

[@randyclere2330]

Yeah man! seriously underrated cat.. an amazing talent. Good that he is touring with Steve Wilson

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

[@omko73]

Groovy

[@drewbarnicoat]

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

[@jjmah7]

I 100% believe this! He’s so chill man. Responds to his fan’s comments on KZbin too. Seems really grounded and humble - which is amazing because not many people would be if given his gifts

[@celsosanico4062]

It’s so divine until it hurts ! Wonderful Pain ! 🔨🎸 PS. What can I do for You for this EXPERIENCE? Maybe COOK 👨‍🍳?🤣

[@mikikomurdoch5985]

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

[@cartnhorse]

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

[@JhonGalegru]

this comment certainly deserves more likes.

[@reallife7235]

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.

[@newmoon54]

Maybe you're too critical here,, remember,, this song played at the tempo and accented timing parts limits just how loose/funky the bass player can get!!! And Alex usually works his songs out and demands that each player sticks to the intended score!!!

[@ilovemynikon]

best:)👋👋👋👋

[@JedTaneo]

My Audio Technica headphones is happy with the drummer.

[@mitchellbadders5636]

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

[@bermaddiaz2613]

When playing single coil pickups does Alex compress them?

[@ooopaulo]

You guys destroyed Cantaloupe Island. Wiped off the map.

[@harro333]

Dat drummer!

[@YaoEspirito]

What a crisp band! I just don't understand the circuit this guy's on. It seems 95% of his material here on KZbin 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.

[@bonecracker23]

He is touring with Steven wilson now

Wonderful playing of course; only eclipsed by the fabulous names! *_Phoowich Tawasinchanadech_* - is this really the name of the bass player? I initially mistook it as an onomatopoeia for something embarrassing that happens after a chicken vindaloo.
