never enough rhodes - compilation #2





'Eglise'


'Oda Para Mi Nina'

More 70s jazzy rhodes tracks with various south american hints here and there. Jorge Lopez Ruiz becomes the second Argentinian to guest on this blog with the beautiful opening track. Kinda cheating with Joe Zawinul, because he's clearly on a wurlitzer rather than a rhodes, but i think you've already gathered that this is not a site for purists :)

Another Norman Connors track, because although I'm trying to avoid the really obvious rhodes tracks, it's hard to have one of these comps without Herbie Hancock in there somewhere! And once again Dwele is the "special contemporary guest" amongst all these classic sounds.

    Eglise !! Can I call you cherry-picker ?! You choose the nicest track of this rare LP !

    Joe farrell, Nice choice indeed. Once shall not think to Mr Farrell for rhodes explaination...

    Same idea comes to my mind with Nathan Davis If LP. Some very nice tracks

    Try also Ramsey Love Notes: pure jazz with funky mood: un délice

    Merci

    Hi its Kinebee.

    I was wondering if you had

    Jorge López Ruíz - Viejas Raíces II, De Las Colonias Del Río De La Plata Trova DA 5009 (Arg)(1976)

    or Viejas Raíces I.

    I just got a hold of De Prepo and would like to hear more of this guy!

    De Prepo is killer! I'm going to post it here...

    Hi djangophile -
    Glad you're enjoying the comps :)
    I probably should qualify that description in that I don't own and ACTUAL rhodes, I play a software emulation called Lounge Lizard via an Axiom 49 keyboard - sounds great but not very photogenic! :)
