More of a stevey wonder guy myself but it's more about what ever gets you pumped man and I play guitar so wen you do that with flight ✈ of the bumble bee 🐝 every one puts there instruments down and gives you a dirty look to were you looked happy 😊 man thats the point 👉 raw man
As a guitar center employee who works in the keyboard department, it's the absolute most refreshing, relieving, and calming thing to hear some really good live music doing a crappy day, and I LOVE all of you professional musicians that make my day♥️
Yeah I used to work at guitar center in guitars and most people would walk to the piano section and just make a ton of senseless noise, and it never bothered me but I’m sure that could get annoying for others especially if it’s your department 😂.
I know you're paying him a compliment and I agree and all, but if that sounds like a metronome to you, you need to upgrade your UA-cam audio experience. Decent in-ears can be found for 20 bucks, and decent speakers for 30-40. (I wouldn't bother with over-ear headphones for less than 80)
I find it funny how Rai is just this dude playing AMAZING funk music with some of the biggest musicians in the funk scene and no one says anything about him writing some of the biggest most loved Australian rock classics of all time in the early 2000's. I had a work colleague who was a blues artist that would play with him a lot and I got to see him playing with Thirsty Merc not that long ago and it was literally one of the best performed rock concerts I've seen from Good Charlotte to Sum 41. Just incredible musicians.
The way the chords move from one to the next is beyond graceful... As a guitar player mostly stuck playing in the same scale I can't hold myself back from being somwhat envious
Thanks so much for doing all these great transcriptions. One thing that caught my eye and ear right away is that at 0:56 (m.29), it should be B/E, not Bm/E (Emaj7sus2 could work too).
Hey thank you so much for this transcription! I don’t want to be that guy and I apologize if someone else already said this but I think bar 32 should be a bar of 6. He holds that note out for 4.5 not 2.5 as you have it. Thanks again!
F double-sharp is actually easier if you're musically knowledgeable, since G-natural has no place in a G-sharp scale. But how the hell do you improvise in 5 SHARPS anyway? If you play in 5-sharp land, you gotta speak the language!
If you study theory, harmonic functions and practice enough till it partly becomes instinctively muscular it’s easier to improvise in B or F# major than actually write it down on the sheet
Great stuff Timothy, always tuning into your transcriptions, keep up the wonderful work! Wondering if you have ever transcribed any Russell Ferrante of Yellowjackets. He has some excellent unusual time signatures and many great solos- just a suggestion. But love all your content anyhow. I have started making a Listology of all my favourite transcribers on UA-cam and you are definitely one of them! 🙏
I know right? Would you happen to know why there is a C natural (#4) in that scale he plays? I’m having trouble understanding what is happening from a theory standpoint.
I hate guys like this. So friggin talented. I can’t imagine how much joy this brings to guitar Center employees. And to us you get to listen. I still hate him.
Enjoy Rai's music! And did you know I've done three other full Rai transcriptions? Check it out~ tinyurl.com/2ahw9hah

I’m surprised it’s not annoying lmao
I love u too😂😂
I don't know why, this reminds me of 'I Don't Wanna Be A Billionaire' by Theo Katzman
It reminds me a little of Billy Joel, back when his music was cool.
edit: Listened to that song. You're right, somewhat similar sounding.
More because of the chords, but rhythm wise it's completely different. Both are really good songs though :)
Reminds me of dont wanna fall in love
This vid from 5 years ago.
Playback speed at 1.5x helped sell it for me haha
The percussive way that he plays makes it sound like he’s quantized! Love it!!
Transcribng that would drive me nuts.
when you realize the tapping sound WAS HIS FOOT?! literally thought it was a metronome.
I know you're paying him a compliment and I agree and all, but if that sounds like a metronome to you, you need to upgrade your UA-cam audio experience. Decent in-ears can be found for 20 bucks, and decent speakers for 30-40. (I wouldn't bother with over-ear headphones for less than 80)
i think theyre just referring to how spot on it was, you dont need a proper headphone to just watch some videos lol
Oh baby this is the most Vulfpeck thing that isn’t actually Vulfpeck
Rai Thistlethwayte, very nice, humble guy and extremely talented musician
Rai Thisistheway
Ray Thistlethwaite - guy is relentless. Left hand of god. Absolute rhythm unit.
He has a gift of being percussive in comping chords. It's insanely amazing. It's like I'm hearing the drums and guitar through his playing.
I find it funny how Rai is just this dude playing AMAZING funk music with some of the biggest musicians in the funk scene and no one says anything about him writing some of the biggest most loved Australian rock classics of all time in the early 2000's.

The store : "No Stairway To Heaven"
This guy : hold my beer
Omg. Superb playing. Please do more of such guitar style playing on the keys. So cooool
I love rays playing so much. Absolutely incredible musician.
How is his time feel so good?
The Passion, the Patient and many hours of practicing
I’d say it’s that funk half time but not actually half time feel. If you get what I mean
Some people just feel it ig
The stache
Is it because of what they call the "pocket"?
i just realized this guy (rai thistlethwayte) is also the same guy who sings san francisco street (sun rai)! what a talented dude
Thanks so much for doing all these great transcriptions. One thing that caught my eye and ear right away is that at 0:56 (m.29), it should be B/E, not Bm/E (Emaj7sus2 could work too).
d# is on the staff so it's a chord symbol mistake. thanks for pointing that out anyway.
@@xerxes1972 Oh yeah, it was the chord symbol I was talking about.
Ah you’re right! I’ll update the PDF thanks for letting me know :)
@@TimothyGondola No problem, you’re the best for doing these.
I'm new to learning the piano (no muscial background). It amazes me that someone could even catch that and then know how to correct it.
The groove is totally amazing!!!
And the transcription is godlike!
Nothing else to say :)
Rai is a hidden gem... One of my Fav's... I love everything he does,... thanks for posting.
ok but that snap was actually clean af sheeeeesh
Love the tune! Jammed along with it :)
Will sir be buying the $2999 Nord today?
LOLOL!
"I think I'm gonna buy it, do you accept... cash? Chi-ching!"
No. He's just here to show off.
Absolutely incredible
Absolute pleasure and life. Thx so much from France 🇫🇷
this is so impressive!! love it
Super vulfpeck-y! Great🔥
That was awesome!
Excellent Job 🎶
AMAZING!!!
One of the best solos I've heard
Wow that was really good so groovy 🔥
Amazing!
That’s damn crisp. Love it.
Okay I know it was just a jam but I’m dying for full version now
"Go Nuts" by Rai Thistlethwayte
Idk which is better, the playing or the sheet music 🎶...🎶
That groove was on point! 🔥
Amazing Rai Thistlethwayte!
What's new? Brilliant arrangement and interpretation. I look forward to more videos. Have a happy day. Greetings from Germany, Hannes 🥁🎸🎤
Love this 👍👍👍👍
This is sick, I love Rai. I'm always impressed he has PERFECT rhythm
Made my day! 😊
Fenomeno.
Wow! Very cool!
I’m just stoked to see you give “inimitable” some play 🤘😎🤘
BRO what a lvl! ur insane!
Bro!! I have trying to transcribe it. Thank you so much. Cheers:)
I fuckin LOVE RAI THISTLETHWAYTE
Awesome. 🤩😍
the chord progressions are nice🤗
very cool
Groovy baby!
This feels like some shit you'd hear in Mario
Bro the key is impressive too!
Feels good. 😌
Notice the SV-1 above him
👏🏼🎶🔥😎
coolest guy
Really nice n funky!! Love it. Erik the Netherlands
Wikipedia definition for Funky: Rai Thistlewayte! That's some solo time and feel there.
Rai is the king of ghost notes!
It's Rai! Living legend
Nice!
dis is fresh.
Hey thank you so much for this transcription! I don’t want to be that guy and I apologize if someone else already said this but I think bar 32 should be a bar of 6. He holds that note out for 4.5 not 2.5 as you have it. Thanks again!
I’d love to hear this with a grand piano sound 😵😍
Good song brosn
Holy that’s good
I bet whoever wrote F double sharp rather than G on that sheet music feels real clever
It's more correct though if you get technical with it
F double-sharp is actually easier if you're musically knowledgeable, since G-natural has no place in a G-sharp scale.
But how the hell do you improvise in 5 SHARPS anyway? If you play in 5-sharp land, you gotta speak the language!
@@ejb7969 exactly, Rai must be very well versed in music theory at this point
If you study theory, harmonic functions and practice enough till it partly becomes instinctively muscular it’s easier to improvise in B or F# major than actually write it down on the sheet
That groooooove!
Amazing!!! Please do Chase the Clouds!!!
That was groovy! 😎
Ray is the goat 🐐
Genius
incredible transcriptions my guy 🔥
damn thats talent
For those who didn’t know, this is Rai Thistlethwayte 😊
Yes
Your guitar center has way more keyboards in stock than mine does right now...
Fantastico
I tried not to have 'stank' face; but I couldn't stop it. Sick playing.
"Sir! Are you going to buy this keyboard, or not?"
Ice cold !
Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Damn!
Oh thats ray thistlethwaite
I hear Yellowjackets circa early 90s. Nice jam dude.
Bars 25-30 My favourite part.
0:39 owwn nice!
Nice
I think of that "F#/B/D#" as a Bmaj7add2/D#. It just seems like the conventional Badd2/D# voicing but with that crunchy major seventh tucked in.
Great stuff Timothy, always tuning into your transcriptions, keep up the wonderful work!

Thanks so much! I haven't transcribed any Russell Ferrante but he's definitely a great one.
@@TimothyGondola yes definitely, agreed! :)
This is Rai and he’s always playing okay lol
I was like he looks like Sun Rai 😂😂 and it was him haha he crazy on the keys
This gives me mad Pilot Wings 64 vibes
I go to gc all the time to play the stage 3 like this because I know I can't afford it! It's the greatest keyboard in existence!
dude that lick at 39 is so hard
I know right? Would you happen to know why there is a C natural (#4) in that scale he plays? I’m having trouble understanding what is happening from a theory standpoint.
What genre of music would this go into? Love it
Damn, what an absolute way to flex
as soon as the video started I thought 'hey that looks like the guy from Thirsty Merc' and then I read the caption and WHAT
Rai! Baby!! I hate to tell you peeps, his time feels has always been that good ;-) Terrifying....
Damnnnnnnn. This gave me stank face. Dis nastyyyyyyy 🔥🔥💣💣
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
