Linnea Skoglund lycka till... im colombian but 5 generations ago my family was swedish/danish. do people where you live have that amazing taste in keyboards?
I think a lot of us came here for the tone, but your playing is also fantastic. The choices you make really compliment the Rhodes character. If you had an album of a dozen standards played on this instrument, maybe like half solo, half with complete rhythm section, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
Everybody here with these sophisticated compliments make me feel like a barbarian but this got me rock hard and I've been obsessed with rhodes ever since I saw this. I cant thank you enough
I wonder if Harold Rhodes already sensed how deep that warm, rich, chorusing sound of a ringing Rhodes chord can touch people in their souls. I've never heard any other instrument do this so magically. Incredible.
I feel like I'm being filmed on super 8 while I'm at this blissful snowy mountain looking down at this small town with my friends . It's sunset . It's almost Christmas . I'm getting these surreal amazing visuals I never seen before in my head . I really want to cry but sleep and dream on . Amazing playing . I'm about to get one of these alongside with my synthesizer collection
I'm sure I have several comments buried in here. Just dropping in a 2019 one to say this is one of the greatest videos on youtube. Nothing beats the sound of a freakin RHOOOOOODES!!! Aight bye
No one cares. I found this a while back and now I'm revisiting it again because it's so good, but it's sad to see people here that have mentality such as yours where they think they are special for listening to something before it's 'popular', and are upset that more people get a chance to listen to this beautiful music
Wow i used to revisit this over and over again about 4-5 years ago. One of the first standards i fell in love with.. this opened up a whole new universe for me
Let's create a new habit in RU-vid: whenever we find beautiful stuff like this, we'll recommend people similar stuff they will also enjoy, thus creating a chain of awesomeness. I'll start: Soft Machine - E.P.V. Miles Davis - In a Silent Mood (the whole album yeah) Kozuke Mine Quintet - Dream Eyes Hiroshi Suzuki - Kuro to Shiro You're welcome!
Naima - McCoy Tyner (such a beautiful tribute) You're A Joy - Tadd Dameron Horn In The Middle - Nujabes (featured John Coltrane interview) another great recognition piece! Enjoy
this hits harder than most anything ive ever heard. you hear the tone, the timbre, the compostion and you just say "oh yeah, i remember that time, it was a good time."
i know. Alot of musicians now are imitating this rhodes sounds. Editing patches and effects blablabla. And they sell it.. But original is always original. u can get the sound close but not 100 percent. at the end of the day if you'll think about it, what matters is how u play an instrument. its not about what instrument are you playing. 😀✌🏿️✌🏿️✌🏿️
Closest would be any keyboard with a good Rhodes sound... But the real ones, never seen one. Would love to have one. It's weird they don't make them anymore.
8 poor, poor lifeless souls gave this a thumbs down... give them a few hopeful years, after a few broken hearts, loves lost and a few of life's unexpected curve balls, they'll be looking for such a smooth melody and they will be back.
Congrats on being the unofficial top sample used in lo-fi hip hop. Seriously. I heard a lo-fi song on the radio that had a sample of this performance in it.
When you hold the sustain pedal, the notes feel like soft raindrops dropping on your soul. One of the most tasteful performances I've seen. What I'd give to play like you, man. Thanks for this!
My growing years were during the 1970's Rhodes Era and I know from experience how good it was and still is. Thank you for bringing back the artistry and capabilities of a bye gone Era that changed music permanently.
Ok I love you for doing this, I work in an industrial world with great big machines no one simply understands. You don't know what you do for me at the end of the day
yup...just something about the sound of a rhodes. Good tune to play to demonstrate this keyboard too. Well played and pretty straightforward arrangement. I like how you begin it w/ a little rubato & legato feel, then up the tempo a notch and take it out similar to how it began. Really nice playing. Makes me wish i had spent more time with a piano over the years. ;--)
So I’m taking the plunge and getting lessons at long last. The teacher said “what are your goals”. I literally said “I could listen to this forever” and attached this clip.
Keep finding myself coming back to this video year after year. Thank you, it's clear not only have you mastered music but there's a deeper life lesson hidden in your playing.
