Jess Lewis ft. Alex Hutchings - Room 335 (Larry Carlton Cover) 

Check out the first ever Masterclass from Alex Hutchings: bit.ly/AlexHMasterclass

Never mind the fact that Jess is a "one of the great female players", she is simply one of the great players. Close your eyes; you can't hear gender in the music; you just hear great phrasing and tone.

What sets this gal apart from the so-called best girl players is she is never rushes through the song & pays attention to melodics while still letting it rip. No hair toss, look at me shred shred shred with no real feel. She can shred as good as they, but she has feel & technique in droves something i rarely hear in girls her age even if this is an older clip it's still her best & Larry Carlton would be proud. Thanks to Alex for helping her & man what a solo he drops before Jess takes it out. I've been playing since the late sixties & i must admit she is the real deal. Fantastic tones, bends & the cleanest of notes. And here she's only 16, Holy Moly what a pure talent. Great work young lady as is all your shared music. As one guy here says it makes no difference male or female this is about talent & great playing.🎸🎶💎

This is just totally brilliant. All of us Larry fans are smiling with warm hearts. ❤

I commented 7 years ago and I still say, WOW!

This is my favorite version of this song. The marriage of the soft, jazzy pop with searing guitar solos was what made yacht rock so fun.

This girl plays with her soul. A rare gift achieved by few ...

I love Larry since ever. This interpretation from Jess let me leterally let cry. Almost unpossible to surpass the emotionall feel that Larry put in this piece of song, but Jess in this was able to keep fullyoriginal partiture with her own soul. Greatest interpretation ever

Larry's original solo always takes my breath away. Jess did a great job

She plays this with great restraint, sensitivity, feeling and technique. Fantastic.

I never tire of watching this after 100's of times - such impeccable tone and phrasing. This is a lesson unto itself which incorporates the absolute best of the jazz-rock idiom. Jess has such control over every note. She even adds more microscopically-accurate flavor to each note than Larry did on the original.

Wow, Alex Hutchings really is underappreciated in this comment section. Thought his solo is actually great.

oh wow, what a gorgeous jam! Jess has one of the smoothest phrasings I've ever heard, simply impeccable.

Makes me smile every time I hear her play this...wonderful.

Both of 'em never cease to amaze me. Probably the 50th time I came here just to gawk at the phrasing, tone, and pure genius from them. I can't give enough praise for this performance

Noticed there are 264 thumbs down. You poor jealous plebs. One of the best instrumentals ever written played with passion skill technique and more. A kin masterpiece. Superbly well done to both pkayers.

Amazing. On what planet might wearing the 130 people who gave this the thumbs down? Skill, feel, expression - everything. Congratulations folks.

Hellz yess!! I am so down with this right now!! So gorgeous & symphonic!

Sometimes you just aren't ready for a track to end. Absolute soulful quality of the highest order ♥️

Jess Lewis is F**king Incredible, remarkable and above all admirable. I can't even fathom being that virtuosic at that age. I hope she continues to blow minds

That was Phenomenally Incredible,💥 Bravo 👏.. . Larry Carlton would definitely approve ⭐😸 ... especially the young lady ...absolutely intense ...perfect clarification on the high notes 🎶 ... definitely did her homework on this number 🎸🌹🏆🎥

Wow, Jesse really knows how to make a statement with her guitar!! I never feel like she rambles.... which is rare in this genre nowadays. She really plays with a lot of feeling and timeless phrasing. I can see her opening some eyes for a lot of players in the future.

Not sure how I've never seen Jess Lewis before. I love her style. Her use of string sliding and vibrato is excellent. Great stuff.

Jess and Alex you guys need to give us more. To good to stop now. Lots of love Mike

Wow that was simply outstanding love larry Carlton nice chops amazing music guys love from H in Edinburgh

Virtuoso playing there. I'm not even sure how you make a guitar sound like that. Stunning physical feel.

Very precise and beautiful playing from Jess!

Sympa ce petit jam. Le son est vraiment parfait, avec une très belle couleur de fond jazzy.

Great playing all round on one of my favourite compositions.

Jess, I love that run 5:18-5:25 played so nicely

still watching 2019 😎

Quel talent ! Beaucoup de subtilité et de sensibilité dans l'interprétation de cette très jeune guitariste, qui maîtrise déjà toutes les possibilités tonales de son instrument... N'a rien ou presque à envier à Alex Hutchings, qui ne manque pas de brio non plus.

I keep coming across this video every now & then over the past couple of years … And every time I do I always have to watch at least once if not twice or more … I think I watched it the day before yesterday & here I am again …

Thank you Jess! You just saved me from a long bad day

I hope Larry Carlton is seeing this. Magnificent! Everytime someone tells me "my fingers are too short for exceeding at guitar" I show them this. I love the unique precise technique of Jess and the miniscule intonations that only Alex brings into playing so perfectly. Isn't she a student of his? Could hear this all day...

To Jesse, you're wonderful, I never get tired of listen to you and your endless lick at the end. Thank you Jesse and Alex, million times

The Goddess are rising....Jess Larry must be proud that you rip shred and put it all together again with such beauty! And the brother that answers you, what a guy.. Brilliant .

The smart girl don't tries "fighting" the amazing Alex's solo, but doing her own thing, and it's very well done, indeed. Hat up!

3:45 a phrase from above, god this is pure genius, you both are amazing but no I won't quit guitar now even if I probably should ;)

Incredible cover here!!! Two really hot players taking on a HOT TUNE ....... and making it even HOTTER!!! Didn't miss a lick ..... and neither Alex or Jess took it easy on themselves either! They tore it UPPPP~!~ One of the best live recordings on RU-vid~!~

This young lady has nailed this famous Larry Carlton tune. Very impressive playing with lots of nice flourishes throughout. Just goes to show you don't have to own a Gibson 335 and Dumble Amp to sound good. Well done Jess. Alex is obviously a well know and great player. They interchange well I could only just detect a different player at the change over.

Love You Jess You are so good , keep up your playing You make me so Proud 

Who doesnt love this! Unreal , Both Jess and Alex solo's . What a piece of fine art guys! THANK YOU

You are fantastic! Thanks for all, God bless you!

Jess, this is just amazing, i have no words .. I hope you did not quit playing guitar because you can become one of the greatest !

This kid is just fantastic in everything from her timing to her choice of notes and attack. Plus she seems like she's having a great time - though she always seems shy. Unleash her with Tal Wilkenelfd - these two would be crazy in a band together.

It's so cool to hear a great player coax that fat sound out of a strat.

What I like about guitarists like this is that we can each note and it's played with feeling.

Love her playing! Just a phenomenal guitarist!

無茶苦茶うまくて感動した！！

This is such a joy - to watch or listen to.

What really blows me away is the way she flows over all the key changes like they weren't there,damn,how does someone so young play like she's been doing it for 50 years.

Saw Alex Hutchings just two nights ago with Steven Wilson. Incredible show. Alex is a beast. I went in blind. Never listened to Steven Wilson before or Porcupine Tree for that matter. Never the less, a great show. Everyone was tight. As to be expected. I wish Jess would tour. I'd love to hear her play live. Still one of my favorite guitarists.

Jess Lewis and Alex Hutchings! wow that was some nicely played and recorded guitar playing indeed, Jess's touch and feel is so f**king good, nice one guys!

Amazing. Incredible. ( shakes head in disbelief )

Just perfect.... This girl is unbelievable!!!

Jess's playing is so crisp and precise.

This is the only track available on the site that does not have the main solo transcribed. This is because it is a cover and Jess plays the track pretty much note for note. The free download comes with Alex's parts transcribed as this is original. Thanks

WOW ... better than the original. thank s Larry for this tune, thank s Jess and alex for your new version

Perfect cover, you both are exceptionally talented ⭐, ... this young gentleman has intense deep rooted style 💥🎸 definitely entertaining 🎶

both had such great command.

Que top! Dá vontade de passar o dia ouvindo! Usei este vídeo como aula pausando e pegando cada escala e ideias! Obrigado!

First off:no more excuses about your hands being "too small". PRACTICE.

Never heard of Jess Lewis before ever, she's simply an amazing guitarist, up their with all the greats you can think of

I'm blown away that about endless playing and phrasing

I'm a huge Alex Hutchings fan, but I didn't know Jess... she is an amazing player!

ayant écouté la version originale après coup, je trouve la version jess et alex sublimé de mille feu avec la modernité des son d'aujourd'hui sans oublier le talent émanent des doigts de fée que sont les votres ! en tout cas quel plaisir sensoriel de vivre ça a travers cette interprétation oh combien transcendante. merci pour ça ! good joob bro ;)

yes very,very nice....liked this song i dontknow 25years?Good to hear it here,thanks a lot

Beautiful playing! Tone brilliant and feel...❤️😍🎼🎸both solos rocked! And thats why i want a fender

Oh my god!!! This is fucking incredible

Jess’ smile at the end is priceless.

Wonderful players thank you very much I listen this song every day during the morning & when I live my job

What can I say! Simply superb.

That groove reminds me a lot Peg by Steely Dan...

The reason why I love this version and Jess so much is unlike the real song she makes the solo FLOW so much better and it sounds so beautiful this way!

ビブラートがすごくきれい。アタックのピッキングが力強いので、いい音がでますね。男性ももちろんすごく上手ですが、自分はジェスのプレイが好きで、時々聴きにきます。

Jess!! You gonna be a legend!!! .... Oh wait, you ARE a legend!!

COOL! So kindly!

Stumbled on this vid and had never heard of the track, or Jess or Alex, and have been listening to nothing but for weeks. Jess you are simply oozing talent and you are going to go a long way ... wow wow wow simply doesn't cut it, but I can understand why superlatives probably simply weren't enough.

Really loved Jess Lewis' phrasing! Very melodic and creative, quite unique

a melody is a melody is a melody. IMHO Room 335, the original version, is 80% rhythm section. The genius Carlton just did what no one but Larry Carlton can do.

That lick at 5:17, wow.

The direction of Room335 of the method of you is full of life, and I like it.

this girl is incredible !

why do i hear so much steely dan?

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fantastic Job, Well Played. "Good", She's Bloody Brilliant.

Eternal respect to Sir Larry Carton for composing an everlasting super awesome song...

Jess - SIT UP! Can't see your face - posture!!! Alex - well done! Both play well. Alex has that extra fire though!

in japanese "subarashiiiiiiiiii" !!!!!!

Fantastic playing from both of you.

i used to think this song was a boring smooth jazz tune but after hearing jess and alex solo over the bridge section, im converted!

marry me please ! what a technique . What a humble guitarist . She we ll be well known in next 5 years ı guess :)

i'm sure i'm not the only male who noticed that every time she does vibrato, the guitar is not the only thing that she's jiggling, hehe

Jess plays wonderful! I wish she wouldn't prerecord it, and just improvise LIVE, like Alex did!! Love it anyhow

Awesome Jess Lewis! ALL POSITIVE---and ALL GOOD!

i love it 2:50-3:00 and yeah this girl makes me so embarrassed -__-

NOW THIS IS WHAT I CALL FEMALE MUSICIAN!!!!!!!!!!! The rest can go to **** DAMN this was awesome!

I keep watching and watching. This is absolutely HAMMER !!!

Wow!! She's amazing playing guitar. Both are good musicians.
