Guthrie Govan & Alex Hutchings play together for the first time on the ROTOSOUND stand at the London International Music Show 2009- See more www.rotosound.com
Awww!!! I seee!!! You seem to have absorbed the vibes and transformed into this next level player that you are now! P.S - You were no bad even earlier!
There is some REAL chemistry in this vid!!! I don't think it's very often that Guthrie has someone with comparable skill to play with. They're really playing music together and feeding off of each others licks and feelings! AWESOME!!! :P
Alex is damn underrated, IMO He's on the same level with Guthrie.. his harmonic knowledge, bebop lines and spontaneous creativity are impressive, even Ron Thal is boring in comparison (and i appreciate Ron Thal a lot)
Still reckon Guthrie is a level up IMHO, but what does it matter; they're both thousands of levels above me, and it's not a competition! They're both amazing to watch and listen to, and both seem like lovely chaps from what I've heard. :D
I enjoyed this beautiful conversation!! It really is like a converstation: turn taking, eye contact, facial expressions etc... Fabulous display of playful emotion! :)
These days, it's not how you can master one specific genre, but it's how you can master many.... Guthrie and Alex just raised the bar that left old dogs like Vai and Satriani in the dust
Steve Vai is still much more of a unique player than Govan or Hutchings though. He created a style so vastly different from anything else that came before him up. Guthrie Govan is basically just an amalgamation of a bunch of 80s shredders (including a large Steve Vai influence), blues players, and 80s/90s fusion players. He's still one of the best on the planet right now, but Steve Vai still just about edges him out in my books, when you look at musicianship as a whole (uniqueness, playing/technique, composition, improvisation etc...). Shawn Lane and Allan Holdsworth are my top 2 personally.
Good points, they are very different. But I want to be like Guthrie Govan and Alex Hutching. I really love Alex Hutchings but his video are hard to find on youtube. I hope Alex make more video because he can be better than Govan.
I'd say Guthrie is a far ways ahead of Alex Hutchings when it comes to musicality, technique, improvisation, composition etc... but still nowhere the level of guys like Shawn Lane and Allan Holdsworth; th-cam.com/video/MCgNR259tls/w-d-xo.htmlm13s
Hi Snakeskinsaddle, thanx for the slap on the shoulder. I'm 45 now and had a break in playing guitar for almost 20 years. I love my music / my song (would be bad if not !!!) but those guys always show me what I missed and won't reach ever. But it's still an aim to reach for... Cheers!
These guys are probibly the 2 best guitar players in the world "in their style". Hot isn't big enough of a word to describe them. I live in the Central Southern United States. We have Blues, Rock, Bluegrass, Country and Classical music all around us. Not too many Jazz players unless you go North to the Indiana University campus. I wish these guys would pass through some time. What a treat it would be. P.S. They were just messing around. Imagine what they could really do!
tthe very intro when alex and guthrie start jamming , alex's first couple of lines of soloing sounds like should be part of the junglee book music with guthrie giving a funky groove and good chords in the background ! JUST SIMPLY AMAZING! by far the wo best guitarsists inthe world , they both can play all different styles of music in their playing and have a great melodic sense!
Absolutely. Both are great and have the qualities you expressed. There are a lot of great starving guitar players. Pay attention to melody and you will sell records. Play at the speed of light and impress a few young players.We all like different styles and have different opinions on what is good. You hit the nail on the head with these guys.
This is what you call inframed bias. You saw GG and automatically gave him the win because it was your expectation based on his rep but the truth is AH has all the chops of GG and there's no distinction between the two, let alone a massive gulf as you implied.
Show Brother's os dois melhores guitarristas do mundo! Puts! que maneiro cara fiquei impinotizado!!! 1 bom dois e demais! kkkkk..... abraços a vcs Deus abençoe!
@@flamingmanure no way did you say GG is cleaner than the uber clean AH. No way. Either your ears mislead you or - as I suspect - your bias does: your expectation based on GG's reputation and so you buy into that and assume he must be smoother. Which means you are not judging with your ears, not judging fairly.
These two are so close I'm not even going to pretend I can discern who is the best, but to me its about enjoying the incredible talents of both. So many great guitarists around now, especially some of the female ones, but for my taste these guys are both balancing together on the capstone of a great pyramid of guitarists.
Guthrie is clearly superior, a lot cleaner and fuller sounding although that could just be the set up. I love them both though. Hutchings couldn't write a "Regret" or "Drive Home" solo.
@@Cheximus lol nope. GG is not "clearly superior" and to say he is shows you are either clueless about guitar playing or are being influenced by GG's internet reputation. AH has all the technique of GG, the multi facets of GG, and - as is often claimed - a better soloist and composer than GG. The point is, this vid shows two people playing each other's licks with ease. There is no "clearly superior" guitarist in the clip.
Ouch... to think i was about 4 foot away from this! It's ridiculously good, and even better live.
Awww!!! I seee!!! You seem to have absorbed the vibes and transformed into this next level player that you are now! P.S - You were no bad even earlier!
Hey! Can you do a review about these two monster?
There is some REAL chemistry in this vid!!! I don't think it's very often that Guthrie has someone with comparable skill to play with. They're really playing music together and feeding off of each others licks and feelings! AWESOME!!! :P
they are both gentlemen... no ego clashing. that's the way to jam. love it!
These guys make me proud to be british, phenomenal playing as usual.
This guys make me happy to be a music lover human being.
so you mean.that guthrie and alex..is british😀
The kind of thing a little Englander Tory would say.
@@denselabat2921germany Uber alles... Matthias jabs, Michael weikath, Michael schenker
@@abirhossain7980germany Uber alles... Matthias jabs, Michael weikath, Michael schenker
at last guthrie found someone who can match him. he was even surprised. ^^
Why there is only one clip of Alex Hutchings and Guthrie Govan jamming together? :( Their jam is like jam of fusion gods. We want more!
wow...imagine a collaboration album by both this guys.that would be awesome!
The beginning of a new era.......
two master in the world no body like them !!👏👏👏👏
Alex is damn underrated, IMO He's on the same level with Guthrie.. his harmonic knowledge, bebop lines and spontaneous creativity are impressive, even Ron Thal is boring in comparison (and i appreciate Ron Thal a lot)
planescapeshock as far as u know, alex is untouchable.
Agreed!
Cause he doesn't have memorable songs.
Still reckon Guthrie is a level up IMHO, but what does it matter; they're both thousands of levels above me, and it's not a competition! They're both amazing to watch and listen to, and both seem like lovely chaps from what I've heard. :D
Ron Thal smokes them both lol.
That's the most heady conversation I've ever heard 🤯
Alex is my current favorite. Every single note he plays sounds so perfect
And he is now offering lessons !
fan boy
@@hetknn8600 damn for real?!
Guthrie Govan (born 27 December 1971 in Chelmsford, Essex, England) is an English guitarist and teacher
I enjoyed this beautiful conversation!! It really is like a converstation: turn taking, eye contact, facial expressions etc... Fabulous display of playful emotion! :)
2 guys deep in the jam sauce here, found in their natural habitat fully dedicated to the outside
I can't stop listening to this conversation. Why does it have to be so short? 😔
These days, it's not how you can master one specific genre, but it's how you can master many.... Guthrie and Alex just raised the bar that left old dogs like Vai and Satriani in the dust
Ken T i hate to say it, but you're totally right!

Both are great
they're bringing back childhood memories....
When they veered into the Sailor's Hornpipe I had to laugh. Too much fun.
DAMN!!!!!!!! This is awesome..............
Amazing!
I took Alex's advise and switched to Rotosound 8's and I'm never going back!
tthe very intro when alex and guthrie start jamming , alex's first couple of lines of soloing sounds like should be part of the junglee book music with guthrie giving a funky groove and good chords in the background ! JUST SIMPLY AMAZING! by far the wo best guitarsists inthe world , they both can play all different styles of music in their playing and have a great melodic sense!
Never gets old. Arch Maestre Guthrie with Lord Commander Dolorous Edd Hutchings.
2020.... guthrie still wear that t-shirt
Just realised that I was sat here grinning throughout the whole clip. Says it all really.
AWESOME!!!!!
Man this is good stuff....

Alex Hutchings is extremely talented, don't get me wrong, but this just shows how monstrously insane Guthrie's technique is... wow
Them both amazing😊and nice people

alex is on a higher level.
such a world class prp
nope. i would say guthrie is quite a bit better. cleaner too. on a league basis i would still say theyre in the same league though.
@@flamingmanure no way did you say GG is cleaner than the uber clean AH. No way. Either your ears mislead you or - as I suspect - your bias does: your expectation based on GG's reputation and so you buy into that and assume he must be smoother.

the craziest part of all this, is the fact that they are purely having fun... as if two boxers were doing some friendly sparring. amazing.
2 beasts of the guitar, this is too much to take in!!
C'mon people this isnt a contest. Can we all agree that both these guys are INCREDIBLE
That riff that Guthrie does at 0:35 makes me warm inside :)
Le top de la perfection
Awesome jam. Hilarious too!
Finally the two best meet. Its not fair what they do on guitar.
It's Good. I very LIKE !
totally fun!
this has to happen more often
they are masters. .a guitar expert
they are the same good!!
so pro.
Alex ist a beast!
they must make a bluestrackjam video with nice video and sound..it would be awesome....they are my 2 favourite players...
I love Alex, he is there for the music, not the ego...I could be wrong, but that's the vibe I get.
wohoooo!!! 🔥🤘🤘🤘
COOOOOLLLL GUTHRIE GOVAN
INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they're surely having fun
Alex rules!!
best 2 minutes and 39 seconds of my life
ha wow i idolize both of these men equally.. pretty cool
Is it legal to have that much genius and talent so close in contact to each other? Why didn't the place just explode or something? WOW.
hahaha awesome!
two LIONS
Guthrie's playing has so much finese, while Alex seems to have a bit more cool stuff to throw around imo. Both equally mind blowing.

@Joethomas1547 how did you typed your messege than?
Guthrie Govan the best!!
wow way to motivate young players...
the guitar gods
