Then again, it's definitely chorus rhodes in "The Answer Is Love", so you might be right ...Simon666https://www.blogger.com/profile/09956360016761022956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3266956345774469059.post-3906892748400695862010-06-08T07:36:39.280+10:002010-06-08T07:36:39.280+10:00The Yamaha DX-7 didnt come out till '84.

If your talking about the song Rude Boy, thats a real Fender Rhodes with stereo chorus, essential for the early 80s Jazz/Fusion sound :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3266956345774469059.post-68127577627658034932010-06-04T10:01:22.313+10:002010-06-04T10:01:22.313+10:00great stuff, thanks so much from RI!!great stuff, thanks so much from RI!!tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00531791282358271489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3266956345774469059.post-71302920248206397992010-06-01T02:48:32.193+10:002010-06-01T02:48:32.193+10:00Mongo!

I see that you&#...Thank you so much for this post.<br /><br />I see that you've mentioned "Mongo Explodes At The Village Gate" in your discography. It'd be so cool to actually find a link to this amazing collection - it happens to be my favorite collection in Mongo's entire discography.<br /><br />It has been lost in the shuffle because there is, as you know, a collection called "Mongo Explodes" and another called "Mongo Santamaria At The Village Gate." Both are fine collections, but neither can hold a candle to "Mongo Explodes At The Village Gate."<br /><br />Anyway, thank you for this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3266956345774469059.post-41677468514947375082010-05-16T23:22:30.681+10:002010-05-16T23:22:30.681+10:00Hey I don't wanna be leaving the ripper out of...Hey I don't wanna be leaving the ripper out of my thanks so here's to you Remy!
