Hey, how about the marvellous Gil Scott Heron!
Anyone ever checked out his great live performances of tracks like Winter In
America?
Nice use of Rhodes there...goes wicked with the man's voice.

Rhodes is sooo prolific now. aside from hammond B-3 it's defonately the top
choice of hippsters all over the world. it's really difficult to name just
some of the best rhodes albums....
some of my favorite more recient ones are
cinematic orchestra
karma
eddie henderson
list fave st germain
it's endless
sus9 in a dark room produces instant goatee's. any Maj7 in a lit room makes
eyes slightly sleepy and corners of mouths turn curiously upwards......
