bes use of fender rhodes in songs?

patrick · 03-10-2003, 03:16 AM

i think the winner is "she's not there" by the zombies, no doubt

also:
"where it's at" - beck
"don't leave the light on baby" - belle and sebastian
"mary" - supergrass

feel free to contribute

I'd rather not.

Actually, I'll just need to think about this now that you've named the obvious ones.

BEST NOT BES

actually just name good songs where a rhodes is used, period. i like the instrument so much i want to make a mix tape with songs using it.

i guess this is a bit like that harmonica thread a while back. yeah.

Okay, She's Not There uses the Rhodes quite effectively. There's one on Karma Police too, isn't there?

I'm having trouble telling the difference between the Fender Rhodes sound and your regular electric piano. I'll just assume we're using Rhodes as a generic term, like Kleenex.

I think Mogwai's "Take Me Somewhere Nice" uses one. I like that song.

looper are good, you fuck! but nowhere near as good as b&s. obviously.

i can't think of any more rhodes songs. maybe some radiohead? stereolab?

patrick · 03-10-2003, 06:46 AM

ooh

a portion of paranoid android has one. and i think a "talkshow host" remix does, too

For some reason, I associate Rhodes with southern rock bands.

Best Looking Boy · 03-10-2003, 02:20 PM

Ha another low addition. When I saw them Friday they did 'Point of Disgust' with Haley Bonar's Rhodes. I don't think they used one on the actual album. Was cool.

mercurial · 03-10-2003, 08:15 PM

completely besides the point ----- the latest version of Logic Audio has a kick ass Rhodes VST plug-in

seriously the best rhodes-emulator plug in I've heard - so you get that classic rhodes sound without having to fight the spongy keys of a proper rhodes

kthxbye
