Down The Rhodes Webisode: Marc Cary

The following is a special interview with Marc Cary in connection with Down The Rhodes: The Fender Rhodes Story. Please visit www.FenderRhodesStory.com to order a copy of this historic documentary, brought to life through stories and performances from a remarkable cast of music notables. With an insider's look, we see how a war era rehabilitation tool developed into a major proponent of the electronic instrument movement, and became the most revolutionary electric piano of our time.

I gotta dig Marc’s description of the Rhodes piano as not being an electric instrument because it does make its own sound and only depends on the pickups and the amp to project what it creates itself.

This is great to find ! And how awesome of Marc to create 'Rhodes ahead' great visionary this man , i can tell just watching him Play and speak about his Love for this Magnificent instrument . If i may add , i was about 17 in 79' back in Germany when i was asked to record 3 songs on Drums , Congas and Bass . and from that session i was able to buy my first Rhodes , a Stage . Unfortunately 'lost' that one . then in 89' i found a used Suitcase just like Marc has . Its the sound that helps me express my Music . i will check on your Music Marc ,and looking forward to it after seeing you play on this video ! Ps. Wallace also has great Zildjian Cymbals , as i was told by a secure source :-)

Has a very distinctive "electric-y" sound. Very 70s-ish. I have a relatively inexpensive ($450) Yamaha piano & it doesn't sound electronic at all. Assume 2000's "Digital" is a big factor.
