The sound of the keyboard at the beginning of the video reminded me of Gino Vannelli's "Powerful People" album. He hails from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I believe you might enjoy it.
yeah, so much of Gino's stuff was based around his brother Joe's playing on the Rhodes. People Gotta Move, I Just Wanna Stop...such tremendous playing and arranging. Their music stands up today absolutely as well as the day it was released...and the Rhodes was at the heart of a whole lot of it. A superb video. Thanks for sharing.
I bought a Rhodes in 1995 and then sold it to a saxophone player shortly thereafter. I regretted it after I started listening to Funk Jazz over the next few years. I looked for one for years to no avail. I finally prayed that God would let me find one! One day in 1999, I was driving from Arkansas to New Jersey and the traffic came to a sudden standstill in front of me. I decided to take a break, backed up a few hundred feet and got off the exit ramp to get fuel and eat. I stopped in a tiny music store and they had a pristine Rhodes from 1978 that still had the manual with it! I paid $500.00 for it, crammed it into my Toyota and drove away happy as the traffic was clearing up.
When you get a room full of people that can play like this, it's just a reminder that there is a sea of talent out there and only the very few really see daylight. What a fun video man.
Amazing! I only have 1 but what a Rhodes it is - I bought it from Eric Stewart of 10cc and was used on I'm Not in Love and was played by Stevie and Macca during the Tug of War sessions. I dreamt of playing it when I was a kid so cant quite believe I have it now. But this guy's collection - my God.

I'm currently halfway through this episode, but I must already say that Claudio's collaboration with Anthony is one of the best that has happened on the Earth's Internet.
Anthony Marinelli has rapidly become legendary. Gotta love when you can feel the passion from a fellow aficionado. Haha a Keyboard hero in the TRUE sense.
Amazing. Dr. Mix, Anthony Marinelli, and Jeff Lorber in a room full of Rhodes? Fastest hour and 15 minutes ever (and thank you, Dr. Mix, for not making it shorter).
The thing I was most surprised by is the extent to which I could truly tell the difference in sound between most of the instruments. I didn't expect it to be so noticeable. All gorgeous in their own ways. So much personality between them all!
Started watching the L.A. series last night. The fact that Anthony has given you praise through the series, taking you to all these great places to meeting great musicians, playing on some history enriched sexy keys, speaks volumes for the work you have put in and continue to. I can only imagine how you must feel. HUGE shout out to Anthony for being such a great and cool host and making your trip an amazing and memorable one !! Shout out to Ben for taking us into his Batcave !! Jeff Lober? Enough said 🙌🎹 Claudio, thank you for taking us on this crazy L.A. trip with you !! Inspired, Let's Go !! 🤙👊🙏
Man, Ben Bove is a national treasure, I'm truly impressed by his knowledge, especially towards the end talking about the "E" model Rhodes, that's probably my favourite iteration of the Rhodes, such a creamy sound, but all the Rhodes in that living room are top notch, super wonderful. I can now graduate as a Rhodes scholar! 😄
Thank you guys (yes, even Jeff) so much for this visit. It almost brought me to tears, mainly because my Mark II is sitting in storage because I don’t have enough space to keep it at home. But, seeing as how Anthony has proven that eating dinner at an actual table isn’t really all that necessary, I may have just been inspired to reconsider my decor. Enjoyed the info and stories very much, fellas. The monster chops were a nice extra.
C'mon guys, let's follow Anthony Marinelli, he's an amazing guy, as nice and cool to us as Claudio is! For you that don't have a clue, Claudio is our beloved - Dr. Mix - Monsieur Claudio Passavanti.
Claudio, huuuuuuuge thanks from me. As a keyboard fanatic, this vid was for me pure gold. When Ben started to talk about JZ my heart stopped for some seconds. You are so nice sharing all these diamonds with us.
20:06 I was on the edge of my seat waiting for Jeff to play that song. If you haven’t heard it, it’s called “Raindance” absolutely amazing song. The happiest I’ve ever been playing an instrument is after I learned to play the song by watching Jeff’s hands in various UA-cam videos.
I’ve had a Fender Rhodes piano in my basement for many years that belonged to my late brother who died in a fire in 1983. Amazingly it survived the fire. It also survived Hurricane Sandy when my basement flooded. I had it recovered back in tihe 90s by a musician named James “Chops” Jones. I believe it’s 88 keys. I see that some museums have these pianos and my plan is to donate it to The Newark Museum.
Woooow, Doctor Mix, what an absolute treat this was. Great stories about what most certainly is one of the most beautiful instruments ever. And don’t forget the great playing showing the musicianship of all who were present at this interview. Thank you so much for this!
I have a 1972 B. Kehoe Fender Rhodes. It was being stored outside in a barn. I drove 80 miles to rescue it. Luckily no weather elements got to it. I already have a wurly 200a and now im complete. Both were found at garage sales. 😊
I'm not usually one to watch videos longer than 10-15 min but this was an absolute treat the entire way through. Keep em coming! This was truly magical
Thank you so much for doing this!!!! I stupidly sold (what thanks to this video now know was) a Mark 1 many years ago in the early 90s. I regret it so much now. That was so cool to see all that history. What an honor to be the fly on the wall for this,.......and Friggin' Jeff Lorber!!! Wow.
This is the one video that every keys player, every music student and every music lover simply has to see at least two times! Wow! I can't find words. You guys rock!!! The web is on fire! 🎉 Learning about music, arts and craftsmanship has arrived in a new dimension. Welcome to the new age, may many more videos like this come up in the near future!
There is something about the way a Rhodes sounds that makes it like nothing else. I loved getting to hear all the subtle differences from one model to another and some of the amazing stories behind this great piano! Thanks for another great video!
Glad I've found your channel Claudio, I've been restoring a '79 Rhodes Mark I and have been inspired by the sounds you've created. Binge watching your channel while working on my project. Thanks for the content you create! Peace and love from Canada :D
Glad you didn't stop when it was becoming a deep dive :D I know it is probably not your most profitable type of content, but I love high quality long form like this.
Everyone is welcomed to help me complete this list of songs played! 3:57 9:30 10:16 Caravan 10:41 I Am The Black Gold Of The Sun - Rotary Connection 11:58 Armando's Rhumba - Chick Corea 13:37 15:29 Tell Me a Bedtime Story - Herbie Hancock 15:46 ??? - Bill Evans 17:50 La Negra Tomasa (Bilongo) - Guillermo Rodríguez Fiffe 20:04 22:08 Fool on the Hill - The Beatles 47:28 Imperial Strut - Yellow Jackets 50:47 Stevie Wonder - You've Got It Bad Girl 53:06 Brazillian Love Affair - George Duke 54:03 56:24 57:55 Bob James - Feel Like Makin' Love 1:05:30 Weather Report - Birdland 1:07:31 Mornin' - Al Jarreau
How did I miss this until today?! What a wonderful dive into the world of the Rhodes piano. As one doc to another, I'm someone who blew part of a student grant cheque on a second-hand Rhodes piano back in about 1984. It was a Mark 1 Stage piano, and cost me £275, I think, bought from a guy in North London somewhere. I had to spend another £75 on a sustain pedal (from Macari's in Charing Cross Road, I think). I was one happy bunny! I played the Rhodes through a Rogers valve hi-fi amp. I got a chorus pedal to play it through, and used to record my playing on a Marantz Superscope CD330 cassette recorder. Happy days! The Rhodes now lives with my son, the artist Mom Tudie, and he uses it in his music; to console myself on my loss (his gain) I now use a Yamaha YC73 for Rhodes (and other) sounds. But I miss the real thing! But it's still in action and giving pleasure, and is an ongoing blessing. Thanks to you for this wonderful dive into all things Rhodes, to Anthony for setting it up, and to Ben (and his unwitting clients!) for sharing his collection with us all. Marvellous! Best wishes to you all.
Thank you Claudio, Anthony and Ben. What a wonderful way to spend a rainy evening. Lovely to watch and hear everyone’s passion and enthusiasm for these fantastic pianos. So kind of Ben to share his work and wisdom. I’d never heard of him until now, but will definitely be checking out his work.
Great video Dr Mix! I love the Rhodes and i"m so happy that I got my hands on a MK 1 a few years ago it"s sound is so magical. i use it in everything i record. thanks for the video!
The same three amazing guys as in Anthony‘s Wurly video plus Jeff Lorber - it can‘t get any better. As for the e-pianos: the Rhodes is *the* fusion keyboard, the Wurly is better suitable for rock and blues IMHO.
Эти электромеханические клавиши просто изумительно звучат! Прям какое волшебство)) Ну, а мастеру Ben Bove - респект! Такого ещё попробуй найди в своей стране))
I have two 73 Suitcase Mk1s, a 1978, 1979. The 1979 was made in late September and the keys have the Mk2 "Miracle Mod" cut into the keys and thus has wonderfully fast action. I take it out on occation with my Steely Dan tribute band and it's always a treat to see other react to the fact that I actually brought a Rhodes to a gig.
That tune that start's at 2:40 is the coolest I've heard in times, oei that's a hot one 💯✌🏼 This episode is insane en complete overdosed with coolness 57:58 when the Rhodes Guru play's a gorgeous tune is also a sweet moment. But there is no end like the "Bridge" of all bridges Al Jarreau's - Mornin'
I think Ben is getting to the point in his career, just like any artist who has been around for a while, that enjoys talking and educating us about his journey as much or more than the actual journey itself
Ah man this was awesome! I LOVE how the Rhodes sounds, and in a room with so many different flavours of that sound! Man, the growl on the lower register of that 88 key one was just amazing!
Every time I watch a new episode, I think it’s impossible to do better. And every time it gets better and better. PS I really want an instrument with green keys!!!! ❤❤❤
The sound of the keyboard at the beginning of the video reminded me of Gino Vannelli's "Powerful People" album. He hails from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I believe you might enjoy it.
Gino is criminally underappreciated. Brother to Brother is one of the most beautiful records ever recorded
yeah, so much of Gino's stuff was based around his brother Joe's playing on the Rhodes. People Gotta Move, I Just Wanna Stop...such tremendous playing and arranging. Their music stands up today absolutely as well as the day it was released...and the Rhodes was at the heart of a whole lot of it. A superb video. Thanks for sharing.
Storm at Sunup (1975) is also a great album. Joe Vanelli's piano and Graham Lear's drumming are epic. And of course Gino's amazing vocals...
I bought a Rhodes in 1995 and then sold it to a saxophone player shortly thereafter. I regretted it after I started listening to Funk Jazz over the next few years. I looked for one for years to no avail. I finally prayed that God would let me find one! One day in 1999, I was driving from Arkansas to New Jersey and the traffic came to a sudden standstill in front of me.

Thats awesome man
Incredible story brother, thanks for sharing! ✌️ 💜
Haha good for you man that makes me happy to hear
When you get a room full of people that can play like this, it's just a reminder that there is a sea of talent out there and only the very few really see daylight. What a fun video man.
Claudio, Ben and Anthony- thank you so much for this amazing piece of work. Big love from Rhodes HQ!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
The kindness and talent in this video is off the charts.
Amazing! I only have 1 but what a Rhodes it is - I bought it from Eric Stewart of 10cc and was used on I'm Not in Love and was played by Stevie and Macca during the Tug of War sessions. I dreamt of playing it when I was a kid so cant quite believe I have it now. But this guy's collection - my God.
As a Rhodes owner this looks like heaven on earth❤
Was thinking right thru this video:"all Rhodes lead to Heaven"
I feel the same way!!!
@@karlhaese7183 I bought a stage Fender Rhodes for $650
After lusting for the sound of the Rose for years
I almost bought a Yamaha reface CP
But who needs a Yamaha when you can have Fender Rhodes
Just yesterday about a fender Rhodes suitcase model for $250 in Houston Texas
I also thought of Wurlitzer for $50 here in Houston
And I can tell you that the Fender Rhodes sounds like it was created in Heaven
Does suitcase model I just felt yesterday on my son's birthday
I haven't even had time to wipe it down and listen to it as I had to travel out to Dallas
Now just binge watching videos of this remarkable instrument
I'm currently halfway through this episode, but I must already say that Claudio's collaboration with Anthony is one of the best that has happened on the Earth's Internet.
Anthony Marinelli has rapidly become legendary. Gotta love when you can feel the passion from a fellow aficionado.
Haha a Keyboard hero in the TRUE sense.
I don't even play piano but I still love this nerdy stuff! More like this!
Amazing. Dr. Mix, Anthony Marinelli, and Jeff Lorber in a room full of Rhodes? Fastest hour and 15 minutes ever (and thank you, Dr. Mix, for not making it shorter).

Incredible. Hanging with you guys is a privilege. Thanks for inviting us along. Please keep it coming!
As a Rhodes mega fan and also a part time tech I can’t express how much I love this. This was a treat, thank you Anthony, Claudio and Ben!
Jeff Lorber forever! Never thought you'd meet him. Loved him since I was a kid. The best!!!!!!
14:10 - That CP-80 sounded BRIGHT even when the EQ was switched out!
The enthusiasm and chemistry between you four guys is just fab!
This is madness. And on top that Jeff is casually there giving these pianos a workout. Amazing video Dr. Mix ❤😊
that 88 with the deep growl for me, rawr! beautiful! Oh and that green one too, lovely!
Started watching the L.A. series last night. The fact that Anthony has given you praise through the series, taking you to all these great places to meeting great musicians, playing on some history enriched sexy keys, speaks volumes for the work you have put in and continue to.

It was very close to Model "E" but not original one 😔

This entire video is 🔥 That Fool on the Hill rendition at the 22 minute mark is just dreamy.
man, I just love the sound of the Rhodes. This was a great video, and I loved learning more about these instruments.

What a great way to spend a Friday night, watching this amazing collection!
Doctor Mix, Rhodes Pianos, Anthony Marinelli, Jeff Lorber.
F*** Yeah ! Have I died and gone to heaven ?!
I'm loving your collaborations with Anthony Marinelli! Two great UA-camrs taste great together!
There’s nothing like the feel and sound of a Rhodes. I loved every minute of this video and history.
AWESOME! That Rhodes at 58 mins! One of the most beautiful Rhodes ever. LOVE LOVE THIS VIDEO!
Great people, great moement, thank you all for sharing this moment with your community 💛

What about a Yamaha CP 60, 70 or 80, or a Hohner Pianet?
I'm not usually one to watch videos longer than 10-15 min but this was an absolute treat the entire way through. Keep em coming! This was truly magical
Too much fun, and educational!

Thanks for all the insights and gorgeous *Rhodes* playing.
There is something about the way a Rhodes sounds that makes it like nothing else. I loved getting to hear all the subtle differences from one model to another and some of the amazing stories behind this great piano! Thanks for another great video!
Without question.
Admittedly then growl of a Wurlitzer is not far off either.
Neeeeeerds!!! And we are all still here an hour later. Good stuff!!

this video is killing !
This is one of your greatest videos!
09:30. What a sound! I am going bonkers for watching this.
As someone who has half a dozen Rhodes plugs, this is like an alternative universe/reality!
OMG this was awesome to watch!
Glad you didn't stop when it was becoming a deep dive :D I know it is probably not your most profitable type of content, but I love high quality long form like this.

Ben Bove is an OG in the Rhodes community. A wealth of knowledge, and has been for many, many years.
I’m a guitar player but as a gear head I throughly enjoyed this episode!! Thanks for sharing this.
Rhodes overload... I'm in heaven. Thanks for nerding out.
i was hoping to see a demo on the wurly
This is so cool, I love the collaboration with Anthony Marineli, you both make a great team! I love all your videos together. Keep it up!!!👍
Now this is what i signed for...such wealth of knowledge and insight. Rhodes give me life, thank you for a great episode !
Really the best channel of electronic musical instruments, sounds etc - it always makes me drive, positive and smile every time I watch it. Thanks!...
Amazing video! All the passion around a fantastic instrument. Your enthusiasm kept me glued to watching the whole thing ❤
I loved hearing the Al Jarreau reference. Amazing video!
Dr. you are a delight, we only want more !
Thank you !
Dr. make-everybody-feel-allright!
@@lundsweden yeah right !
This is FIRE!! So much passion happened here, I'm thrilled
You & Marinelli are the avengers of good sound ! We need more adventureslike this !! ⚡🔥
I actually saw Anthony's video first as I'm already subscribed to his channel but I've been subscribed to your channel longer Claudio.
That place is heaven! RIP Chick
This was amazing 🤩 Fantastic an so sooooo cool 👍🏿💯🫡Thank you for Sharing all this wonderful joy .Doctor Mix ✌🏿
I love this video.
Thank you.
I am Jeff Lorber number one fan from 1979.
Greetings from Madrid.
Doctor Mix just gave West coast a lesson! Great video!
The same three amazing guys as in Anthony‘s Wurly video plus Jeff Lorber - it can‘t get any better.
As for the e-pianos: the Rhodes is *the* fusion keyboard, the Wurly is better suitable for rock and blues IMHO.
Эти электромеханические клавиши просто изумительно звучат! Прям какое волшебство)) Ну, а мастеру Ben Bove - респект! Такого ещё попробуй найди в своей стране))
This is the best video that’s been released on this channel so far!
What a bunch of awesome people. Competition in nice, loving and kind. Big dig.
I have two 73 Suitcase Mk1s, a 1978, 1979. The 1979 was made in late September and the keys have the Mk2 "Miracle Mod" cut into the keys and thus has wonderfully fast action. I take it out on occation with my Steely Dan tribute band and it's always a treat to see other react to the fact that I actually brought a Rhodes to a gig.
lol, I just now got to the part where they explain the "no Mk1 suitcase"
very cool as always !
Such a special treat, love both you and Anthony and the keyboards. So nice.
OOOH MAN WHAT A GREAT EPISODE I LEARNED SO MUCH I AM SO GLAD YOU FLIMED THIS AMAZING SHOW DOCTOR MIX ONE LOVE ALWAYS TO YOU PEACE ....
56:50 My grandma had that same pattern velvet wallpaper in her dining room except in gold. 😆
I am on my third watch . For me this is just electric piano heaven !
Big love to dr Mix for this
That tune that start's at 2:40 is the coolest I've heard in times, oei that's a hot one 💯✌🏼 This episode is insane en complete overdosed with coolness 57:58 when the Rhodes Guru play's a gorgeous tune is also a sweet moment. But there is no end like the "Bridge" of all bridges Al Jarreau's - Mornin'
Congrats Claudio ! You are my hero !
I think Ben is getting to the point in his career, just like any artist who has been around for a while, that enjoys talking and educating us about his journey as much or more than the actual journey itself
Great experience, I'm so envious lol! When you did the quick "sicily" theme, my heart sunk!
This was AMAZING!! Thank you for making this happen!
Great video ! Thank you Ben for sharing the knowledge and love for this beauties !
Far out! I just watched Ben Bova’s interview by Anthony Marinelli in connection with the *Wurlitzer* line! Cool that you’ve interviewed him too, Doc!
53:06 I'm trying to learn this, and learning it made me go somewhere else that was similar
Incredible and so much knowledge in this video. Thanks so much for this one!
Ah man this was awesome! I LOVE how the Rhodes sounds, and in a room with so many different flavours of that sound!
Man, the growl on the lower register of that 88 key one was just amazing!
Every time I watch a new episode, I think it’s impossible to do better. And every time it gets better and better.
PS I really want an instrument with green keys!!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you!!! And me too! I want that green Rhodes now 🙈
