Fender Rhodes

Temporarily Out Of Stock

Add Item to Want List
CD (Item 510198) Sonic Scenery (Netherlands), Mid 70s — Condition: New Copy

Incredible Fender Rhodes from Rob Franken – a beautiful collection of rare recordings made in the mid 70s! All of this work was never issued here in the US – and most of it features Franken in really laidback, stripped-down settings – working some soulful magic on the keys of the Fender Rhodes, with a depth in sound that easily matches some of the bigger-name keyboardists in the US during the 70s! The package is filled with gems you'd never find in American record racks (or European ones, for that matter!) – and although many of the numbers are trio tunes, a few of them expand the group with other players who include Jimmy Owens or Clark Terry on flugelhorn, and Ernie Wilkins on tenor. Titles include "Absorbed Love", "Title Wave", "Six Seven Eight", "Terry Tune", "Esopet", "Straight Back", and "Look Softly". Also features a bonus CD – with a long live version of "Secret Love", plus interviews and other materials that make an "audio portrait" of Franken, but in Dutch language.  © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc.
