I'll never forget the day my buddy and I were drunkenly walking down an alley and found a decrepit old Rhodes in a trashcan behind an apartment complex mostly populated by fairly affluent college students. It had- get this- lost the negative connection inside. That's ALL that stopped it from working. I fixed it in like twenty minutes, and we (he's a woodwinds player and I'm a bass/guitar/various strings guy) didn't really know what we were going to do with it other than just plunk around and sit drinks and pool chalk (said buddy had a 7' 1-piece slate table in his living room-priorities) and stuff on it til we met an AWESOME newbie keys player. He later recorded and toured with it, said it was 100% reliable.
Next time you find a rhodes like this give me a call 😁
@@NicolasMelis No joke, they're hard to find these days.
When was this? I'm a proper sucker for the Rhodes and I wouldn't even in my worst nightmares throw such a beautiful thing in the trash.
@@thecountofgoldmoor1332 I'm assuming a spoiled rich college kid that didn't know or care about anything. This would've been around 2006-7.
@@The_sinner_Jim_Whitney I guess I'll be going dumpster diving for some Moogs, Wurlitzers, Holy Grails or something of the sort.
"Just the two of us" was heavenly
Glad you like it 🙏🎹
I love that song. I know it upside down and backwards from playing it in a wedding band, even though it was 40 years ago. I also played Deacon Blues, a ton of Billy Joel. You found two Bill Withers classics! I'd love to gig with you, man!
yes agreed
@@richardlangellotti6208 🙌🎹
Simon
I'm a guitar Player, but the sound of a Rhodes gets me every time!
Bassist here. And I feel the same. I just love the Rhodes sound.
Gotta love the Rhodes sound :)
🙌🎹
That’s cuz it sounds the most guitarlike of all keyboards 😂
The gentleness of the Rhodes sound is what endeared me to it. It's my favorite instrument after the piano.
78-year-old Piano Tuner-Technician (semi-retired) posting here: As a trainee years ago, I had the privilege of attending a workshop presented by Mr. Rhodes himself: personal history of the piano, tuning procedures, mechanical adjustments, electronics. I still have a Rhodes pick-up in my tool kit feeding into a pocket amplifier so that i can isolate the sound of a single string. This is very helpful while tuning during the sound checks before a live performance!
Hello there! Thanks for the info!! Do you have any comments on how can i fix the an-even sound velocity from the middle C and up of my rhodes?
@@NicolasMelis ¡Sorry, I was not in a business servicing Rhodes. I went around the world with an acoustic tuning kit and a bicycle. (5 years in Indonesia.)
@SewolHoONCE oh ok no worries !! 🙂
Long live the Rhodes! Was so happy to hear Portishead get some love.
Great tune 🎶🎹
I am in love with the Steely Dan intro @1:22 💕
🙌🎹
'Black cow', sounded great!
@@easantos79 Deacon Blues, same amazing album though.
@@easantos79 both "Black Cow" and this one, "Deacon Blues", sound great! Gotta respect Donald Fagan's keyboard voice leading and abilities to make such great grooves and intros.
Steely sounds great anytime.
The most beautiful musical instrument ever!
Gotta love the rhodes sound :)
Indeed. It’s up there among the best. Check out ludvig supraphonic too. It’s a snare. But just as important
I'm drooling over No Quarter!!
😁🙌🎹
Greatest band to walk this earth
Wrong sound tho unfortunately :(
I would be too if it had less Phase 90 in it, and maybe some unvibe or a Leslie speaker for the authentic wobble.
Richard Wrights intro on Sheep off Pink Floyds Animals is truly sublime
🙌🎹
I love the sound of s Fender Rhodes. Like an acoustic piano and vibes had a baby
😁🙌🎹
Can’t get over how good this keyboard sounds
Great instrument 🎹
shit this is what I call "REAL MUSICIANS VIDEOS". no bullshit, just human genius, good taste and good playing! thankyou!
Thank you!! Glad you like it 🎹
Still Crazy After All These Years
New Kid In Town
Noted for the part 2 video :)
@@NicolasMelis And this, particularly if you’re of a certain age! th-cam.com/video/Pm_oisWsjoE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dSTKAI3OgZUTpQwF
Agree.. I question the "most famous" aspect of this.. I like your choices.. Also Styx: Babe.. When I read the title, that's the one I expected HAD to be there..
Deacon blues intro still gives me a thrill and chills like it did when I first heard it! :) ❤
Great tune 🎶:)
That's good news--previously, they couldn't buy a thrill...!
@@misterschubert3242 lol
Aja is the best album ever.. Can't decide on a favorite song so I tend to just listen to the whole thing.. Loved that since it was new.
Gosh... love the magical vibration of Fender Rhodes sound so much....
Gotta love the fender rhodes sound 🎹
WHAT KIND OF MONSTER CUTS THE DOORS RIGHT AT THE MOSY HEAVENLY PART IM CRYIN
Got a copyright claim from youtube and unfortunately had to cut it there!
'Just the two of us' was excellent.
Glad you like it 🙏🎹
My wonderful mum had one bought in 1975...she loved it and I loved hearing her play it. ❤️🌹
Great instrument 🎹
The DX7 of the '70s. 😁 Great selections and beautiful playing!
Many thanks!🙏🎹
DX 7! A blast from the past!
I never seen the Rhodes like this but it’s totally true. If the DX7 never came out in 1983, it’s very likely that many famous songs featuring the DX7 would have been done with a Rhodes instead.
@@MurphysLaw996 Yep.. I was expecting Chicago, Hard habit to break in this video until I realized that was done probably with a DX7.. 🙂
“Roads” with the tremolo made feel like I was watching an episode of Red vs. Blue.
‘RHODES’
My favorite out of any piano or keyboard type of instrument.
This really made my day, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 🙏
Always loved that Blow your Mind intro
Me too :)
@@NicolasMelis nicely played, Bro
Excellent job. Its amazing how these short snippets bring back so many good memories. And the fact that you included Jamiroquai really made my day. Thank you
Thanks for listening 🙌🎹
Wow! This is so beautiful 🤩Lovely sounding Rhodes and amazing playing 👏
Thank you my friend!! Really appreciated especially coming from you 🎹❤️
No Quarter.❤. I miss Pink Floyd Sheep's Rhodes Intro. 😊
Also a great track!
Have to make a part 2 :)
Also Joni Mitchell’s original Woodstock
Dude this nearly brought tears to my eyes! You picked some absolute GEMS! Nice playing also.
Thank you!! Glad you like it 🎹❤️
The Riders on the Storm bassline wants to be more legato to get that rolling endless highway atmosphere.
True!My rhodes needs service the keys were stucking down in the bass so i couldnt play more legato cause the keys would not come up! I will service it and make a part 2 video :)
Styx- Babe
Sheriff- When I'm With You,
Eagles- I Can't Tell You Why,
Kool & The Gang- Cherrish
noted for the part 2 video :)
I love this sound.
Glad you like it 🙏🎹
Such a beautiful instrument. Really nothing else like it.
Great instrument 🎹
Love your work Nicolas, the Phase 90 sounds amazing.
Thank you very much!!! Yes the phase90 is great with the rhodes , i like the smallstone too though :)
what a lovely surprise! love how the rhodes sounds!
🎹❤️
¿Do you know what generates the sound and how the sound gets to the speakers?
Such a beautiful sound ❤
Glad you like it! 🎹
Beautiful and I remembered nearly all the intros
Glad you like it 🎹
The bell like sparkling beauty of a real Rhodes is iconic; it is the 12 string Rickenbacker of the 1970's.
oh yes 🎹
I guess that makes the Yamaha DX7 the Rhodes of the 80's
Amazing, sounds incredible 🤍
thank you my friend 🎹
Sweet!
Here's one for Part 2 -- "Still Crazy After All These Years" by Paul Simon.
Noted thank you 🎹
Great job. Some of my favourites there.
Many thanks! 🙏🎹
Great intros that lead to great songs ... Nice playing and video, Nicolas! 🙂🎹
Glad you enjoyed it 🙏
So beautiful. Thank you.
Glad you like it!
I LOVE this instrument so much… I’m a guitarist , I can’t play piano, but WISH i had a Rhodes. Beautiful and makes me weirdly nostalgic every time I hear one
Great instrument
Wow! That brought back memories! Thanks! :)
Glad you like it ! Thank you 🙏
Man those pedals really made them sound like the originals! Great job!
Glad you like it 🙏🎹
yes! all smooth as butter. Extra credits for Portishead. Well done, sir! Thanks!
Thank you kindly!🎹
Lovely touch and playing, great choice, how about Taxi - Bob James 🤩
Thank you!! Noted for the part 2 video :)
The title of the theme to Taxi is “Angela.”
Long known as THE easiest instrument to get lost in a mix. Some of these intros are truly memorable. But as soon as any of the other instruments join in, the Rhodes player can pretty well go lay down and take a nap. Or they might (as usually happened) immediately jump over to a more useful synthesizer or organ that has enough clarity and articulation to have its notes actually discernible. l can't recall any engineers that got excited when they wheeled a Rhodes into the room. That says a lot.
Wow, thank you ! Just the way you are and Just the Two of us were awesome.
Thank you!! Glad you like them 🎹
Sunshine of my Life ❤❤❤
🙌🎹
I Just deeply love the sound of the Rhodes!❤❤❤❤❤
yeah me too 🎹
Lovely day lovely sounds ❤
Thank you 🎹🎹
Lovely stuff. My favourite is the portishead. But it's all great
Mine too! Thank you 🙏🎹
Ha, I KNEW that "Just the way you are" would be first one the list.
😁
This sounds so good. Between the classics I love the portishead and zep ones very much. They are so dark and atmospheric. Cool stuff, thanks for posting. Cheers
Glad you like it!🙏
One of the great keyboard sounds Simply awesome
Great instrument 🎹
Love that you have blow your mind on here
Glad you like it 🎹
God bless you and your music taste!
Thanks for listening :)
Beautiful. Thanks.
Thanks for listening🙏🎹
Love it, sounds amazing.
Glad you like it! Thank you 🙏🎹
Mannnn I was really hyped to hear you play the rain lick in Riders on the Storm
Had to cut that one due copyright..
Excellent - but how about I'm Not In Love ??!
Thank you!! I guess i should make a part 2 then :)
Good call-there were a few in there that are a LOT less famous than 10cc...how about Angela by Bob James (or does the recorder carry that "intro"?) and Shake a Tailfeather, the version Ray Charles played with the Blues Brothers? Still Crazy after All These Years? Dreams by Fleetwood Mac (or,is that intro a drum riff)?
All way more famous. I'd love to hear these played as expertly as the others in this video!
Deodato, Gino Vanelli, Bob James, Chicago, Disco music...
@@NicolasMelis And part 3. And part 4. And...
You got me feeling So nostalgic for Neo-Soul when you played the intros to "Tyron" by Erykah Badu and "Blow Your Mind" by Jamiroquai! Also caught feelings when you played the intro to "Black Cow" by Stealy Dan! Great work, sir.
Thank you! Glad you like them 🎹
It’s ‘deacon blues’ by steely dan
Awesome vid, thank you!
Glad you liked it! Thanks 🎹
Thisssss. This is the good stuff. Thanks man
Glad you like it! Appreciated 🙏🎹
It looks like one of those thats extremely satisfying to play with the healthy bounce off the keys and sharp
It is :)🎹
Fun to hear Roads in there. Wasn’t expecting that.
The Portishead song?
I haven’t been listening to Billy Joel enough recently, thanks for helping me face this hard truth, brother.
🙌🎹
Wow! It almost sounds like an ensemble of percussion at the tips of your fingers in an absolutely gorgeous way. Mostly a bass player, had no clue that this is what a Rhodes sounds like although I’ve definitely heard it before.
Glad you like it! Thank you 🎹
Thank you for that!
Glad you like it !!
I thought that "Tell Me what I say" by ray Charles would be here. But I really like this video. My first Band teacher used to bring his Fender Rhones to class.
Thank you! The Ray Charles tune is with a Wurlitzer, i did it on the famous Wurlitzer video, check it out :)
Nicely done!
Thank you 🙏🎹
Amazing sound
Glad you like it 🙏🎹
Just the way you are, most awesome song ever❤
Yes 🎹
I liked all of them but you got me with Roads ❤
🙏🎹
Beautiful!
Thank you 🙏🎹
Beautiful...🎉❤
Many many thanks 🙏🎹
0:00 That’s one of the definitive Rhodes intros right there.
🙌🎹
A Rhodes sound is the sound of pleasantness. Not much attack but enough. Love it
🙌🎹
Looking cool Joker!
So happy Deacon Blues is here! Also Portishead
how could i not include those :)
Quality sound and great playing! I own a Mark 1 Stage Piano too.
Thank you!! Mine needs a bit of service/voicing i guess 😁
I know the list can get really long for this but the intro to Bloody Well Right is one of my favorites. Done on a Rhodes clean - no reverb, etc.
Noted for the part 2 video :) but yes i believe that one is on a wurlitzer !
I believe that was done on a Wurlitzer
Fantastic!!
Thank you! Cheers!🎹
i never expected you to play portishead when i clicked on this video, but that was so good
Glad you like it !! Thanks 🎹
Same here! That was an amazing surprise!
I had an 88 Stage model which I bought in the 80s and sold in the 90s, as I had no room for it. Wish I’d kept it. They have a magical tone and respond quite differently to a hard key pressure compared to a light touch.
I ve played a 88 suitcase model 1974, best action and sound
I mean, the sound alone is just awesome. I would love to sit in front of a Rhodes just to doodle around :)
It sure is 🎹
♥️🎹✨✨✨✨Bringin it back. Love it so much.
Thanks Jon ❤️🎹
I would love to be able to buy me one of these. it looks and sounds so sharp and well kept.
Great instrument 🎹
Very cool. Thank you for this. (My own favorite is 0:46 - always loved that song!)
Jamiroquai? Yes i like that one too :)
Dancin' in the Moonlight - King Harvest
Noted 🙏
This is great!
thank you 🙏🎹
I just love the sond of electric pianos.
Gotta love the sound of the rhodes
I regret the day I sold my Fender Rhodes! But I sold it and my MusicMan amp and Yamaha 15 inch speaker and horn tweeter speaker box so I could buy a Korg 01/Wfd Wave Station and MUSICMAN Guitar amp/speaker box 212HD... back in the late 1980s. I later bought a Yamaha S80 portable 88 keyboard that has some pretty good Rhodes sounds... but nothing is as good as the real deal.... and I remember playing that Billy Joel intro " Don't go changing"... and the Michael McDonald Rhodes intro to Minute by Minute... Great memories for sure... and nice rhodes... 😉
Great instrument, i was also many time on the verge of selling it to buy some other gear but i still have it :)
I didn't recognize most of these. But I love the sound of the piano.
Thank you 🙏😁
Amazing songs and playing, especially two of us! I do wish you played bloody well right by supertramp tho, that it one of the most iconic ones out there!
Thank you!! Noted for the part 2 video :)
Great song! However, Supertramp played a wurlitzer, not a Rhodes!
@@danielattridge452 i actually went and looked to see if it was or not but i couldnt find a concrete answer. Thanks for letting me know!
Yes i think also that they ve used mainly a Wurlitzer
Very nice!! 😎🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
Glad you like it!🎹
Thanks
🙏🎹
Awesome My Man...
Thank you 🙏
Riders on the storm...A+
Have to cut it though due copyright :(
Gran Turismo 4 vibes. Love all the intros.
Glad you like them! Thanks! Appreciated 🎹
