It was fun to see how my "quesses" and "rumours" about the Fender Rhodes
activated people out there.
Saying that Frank Zappa was *one* of the first people to record with the
Rhodes, was just a little trick of mine, to see how people react. ;)
It certainly made people react. Great! :)
Now I have most of the answers.
People were also correcting my quess about the manufacture date of the
"Mark I" and "Mark II" models. Most of you thought that I meant the Rhodes
generally, but I did actually mean the *stage piano* (Mark I & II)...and
in that case I wasn't too much wrong.
But anyway...it was nice to hear about the history. It was very
interesting. If you find more articles please e-mail them to me.
Now to a new question:
What's the diffrence between the old Rhodes models (from 50's and 60's)
compared to the "new" ones (from the 70's)?
Do they sound diffrent?
I saw on picture from the "Incognito" record "positivity" that they used
an "older" model of Rhodes.
Are the older ones more rare and expensive?
