Jamiroquai 'Blow Your Mind' played on Rhodes piano

[SosChilla]

The keys look like jelly lol.

[biostaff]

Great great great dude, seriously !!

[mykulc]

If I could play riffs like this I probably wouldn't need to masterbate quite as much :-D

[tommydthatsme]

You just saved me quite a bit of time and effort! Sometimes I would be up for putting in the work and finding out the voicings myself but on this occasion I am very glad of your help - lovely stuff!

[ArnoldFig89]

when I hear a rhodes, I get into a good mood.

[RedStateRetard]

Thank you, nice play there. Finally someone playing a song on the piano from Jamiroquai that is NOT Virtual Insanity

[retr0synth]

Awesome

[MrInternet69]

nice sound

[atlaskick]

AWESOME

[kaBASS2009]

Man, i love this!

GREAT 5*

[santa3103]

Very nice!

Just needs some *light* tremolo behind it!

Saw my first one of these in a Japanese music shop, was like the equivalent of 5000 Australian dollars!

Respect.

[vibravibra]

SO HOT. The only thing I wish is if it's longer.

[Dropzink]

If I could play Blow Your Mind in a Rhodes piano my fingers won't last in going to heaven :D

[stainded]

Very nice sounds dude!

[tomogradymusic]

Nice one - you recorded your Rhodes nice and close! Just one thing - the second chord voicing as played by Toby Smith is G B D E as opposed to your G A B D - I've posted a video response where I play the solo using that voicing, hope you enjoy it.

Cheers,

Tom

[gealoa]

whats the name of the chords????

NAME please...

[Dropzink]

@gealoa Fmaj7 - Gsus2 - G#aug

[bWEDGee]

Just beautiful...

[fixedgearjerk]

Great tune by a great band played on a great instrument, very very nice!

[zejo14]

I LOVE THIS SOUND!!!

[bizkit147]

hey tell us the chords please !

[napalmB]

I've recently come to learn that the Rhodes piano is part of the reason jazz is so awesome. Therefore, good sir, you are awesome by association!

[OnTheRoof1]

This is great! very nice. i love rhodes pianos. Ive just uploaded a video of me playing drums to this song, if you care to take a look.

Xavier

[chrismarx85]

:( awweee.. who cares.

Look at it this way, if this were a live in person performance, would you notice? NO. you'd miss it because you'd be talking or tapping your feet or something...

don't be so picky.

[bieljamiroquai]

beautiful, just perfect feeling

[matximun]

WONDERFUL man !!!!!!! this swing music :)) you play very good

[Guitfiddlejase]

I love the rhodes! I love Jamiroquai! Nice job!

Don't worry about "relisix" he's obviously a cock chugger himself.

[p3c3]

Please, let's not hate anyone. I'm always ready for the criticism as long as it's constructive, so I respect every opinion.

[p3c3]

I suppose you didn't get the sarcasm. I wrote descriptions on the screen because a lot of people thought that I cheat and my Rhodes isn't really connected. But I recently took down the writing as I was bored with it. Just simple info is enough.

[vibravibra]

i love the keyboard. toby smith is so awesome but underrated.

[TuningFreak23]

what do you play in the bassline?

[Keyboardman88]

I used my rhodes may times in the recording studio, and I always had the engineer tap the RCA on the harp nd go directly to the board where effects were added. The only difference is if i wanted to use a stereo delay, phaser, chorus unit, or panner...the the lead off of the harp went to the effect and then into the console.

Nice sounds.

[thepotoko]

very nice, very nice.

[geeride]

Great playing! Try laying back on it just a bit more....your just a little bit ahead of the groove. kickin ass! Congrats!

[blackstar514]

Wow great playing U killed that

[JosefinaChile19]

hi p3c3 would you please you give a tutorial on how to play part 0:47 to 0:52 on piano! its the last part and im done learning this song!!!!!!! thanks to you:)

[funkypurp]

increible jamiro exorbitante

[pozzillone]

Very very close to the real chords...but not the same I think.

The chords at 006:007 sounds me a little bit different form the cd...

Anyway it's a pretty good work...I would to have transcriptions if it's you that transcribed the song...

5 stars

[TuningFreak23]

where can i get the sheets , its so chill out x3

[JosefinaChile19]

hes the best.

[chillraph]

damn you play really well i wish i had the money to buy a keyboard like that

[dan8746]

Amazing :D Nice Rhodes As Well

[Cilou6]

[ZwinnyAndrzej]

[JosefinaChile19]

please give a tutorial on this please plasase.

ur the best!

[p3c3]

It's done now and posted as a response to the video. :)

[danofsydney]

dude you play great and the sound of that Rhodes is so warm and sweet, But two questions please. 1/ after the RCA line out are you using a compressor /preamp before the recording and 2/ when did H become a music note ? :) ...(see the details sections where you kindly state the notes played...)

[p3c3]

Thanks. Ok, here are the answers to your questions 1/ no, I don't use anything between RCA out and instrument line-in in my firewire soundcard but I used some plug-in compression and eq probably (nothing unusual) 2/ H appears in Polish and German notations but for the rest of the world it's B. I changed H for B in the description for no-confusion-any-more. :)

[danofsydney]

thanks for the answers and info :)

[Papagenaia]

how much costs such a rhodes piano?

[p3c3]

It depends on model, shape and year of production. As you know these pianos are old and no more produced (well, actually they introduced new model Mark 7 but it's expensive). You can check prices of Mark I, like mine, on ebay . com or ebay . de but I suggest to buy it in person

[p3c3]

unless the seller is 100% trusted and honest about condition. If you don't have experience with Rhodes I suggest to take some person who owns one and take a look at the piano you want to buy. There are some things worth checking.

[intokrypto]

Dude, your rhodes isnt plugged in!

[p3c3]

Cuz it's wireless Rhodes man... Read the description.

[danofsydney]

what a sweet Rhodes!

[SENgrace]

I LOVE FENDER RHODES.

[kevinFCG4]

can you teach us how to play this please show us you rock!:D

[djtr04]

sweet

[brennanthebest]

what note is H???

[p3c3]

Quoted from Wikipedia: "In parts of Europe, including Germany, Poland and Russia, the natural symbol transformed into the letter H: in German music notation, H is B♮ (B-natural) and B is B♭ (B-flat)." So for you H would be B. Yes, I know it's confusing. Honestly, I do not like theory. ;)

[enzo321]

what key is this in?

[enzo321]

daaaaamnnnnnn cousinnnn! im jammin to thiss noww haha

[TechnicalPupu]

I just love the sound of Rhodes('s). :)

[p3c3]

Are you really THAT lame that you don't know you can take the audio output directly from RCA socket of the Rhodes harp? I told it before so read comments or STFU.

[Funkatronical]

good playing how the fuck do i know i have a rhodes seventy three.. Thanx for the info.. what are those chords changes? sorry :)

[weaponEX]

Excellent work

[1976Pianoman]

Cool

[ICON9INE]

Yess! Really nice performance of one of my Jamiroquai Favorites. Good Stuff!

[corlenbelspar0]

Wait wait wait... what is the H key? I've only learned the note scale goes from C D E F G A B.

Very nice playing by the way. 5 stars.

[ituyok]

H seems to mean B. Don't know what this H business' all about...

[ituyok]

Ah it's northern european notation...

[aakfan]

dude u really deserve this piece of instrument :) well played

[SpunkyBlunderbus]

I love how the keyboard gurgles :D and such a warm soft sound, I wish I could have one.

[thepotoko]

not everyone can play this. trust me, i've tried and i still can't. incredible job, awesome sound, and more importantly, funky!

[bigslick45]

Yo! I ENJOY THIS MORE THAN THE ORIGINAL!!

[Lenoar]

Can't stop watching to your vid'..

Awesome playing =)

[virtualFAB]

nice try on a suunny day!

[bennizw]

Great! Nice groove and fancy bass rhythm ;)

[TalkBoxerDX]

Excellent work :)

[bpsouza]

Great !!

[fallinguer]

hermoso

[muisjemien]

Very nice! Do you have the chords and notes of the break(s). Thanks!

[afafsegvs]

lovly! and a great track aswell!

[Izveerg]

reaally nice :)

[Barvarianboy]

what does the H mean in your chord chart?

[p3c3]

H = C flat

[giacomo978]

H = B

B = Bb

That's German system.

[ReapearingDoubleChin]

is the piano split? the bassline doesn't sound like a piano.

[lokkke]

this is my fuckin favourite rhodes vid in youtube. the sound is soooooo beautiful. i cant wait to get one too:(

[darksun360]

this is a place for "opinionated comments"... not for arguing!!! So please take your "high school" minds elsewhere!!!

[TAPDADA]

no ones arguing.. I would say it was more of a debate. Nothing in comparison to some of the rows you see around this website. People are allowed a discussion, and as long as they are resolved in a civil manner, then there is no harm done to anybody. That is the whole reason of having comments, so people can leave their thoughts...

[Musicluv73]

nice but real simple

[TAPDADA]

still sounds stiff man, dont hate on people like that!

[Musicluv73]

man must not play keys and i you do you must be a beginer cuzz that real easy the hard part is the bass line and thats easy

[TAPDADA]

I never denied it was easy, if you actually read my comment, i said "it still sounds stiff" - meaning, it still sounds good, whether its easy or not, if its difficult it doesn't automatically make it a good piece of music. I do play keys, I'm just saying there's no need to hate on people.

[Musicluv73]

well thats coo but i wuz just commenting i never ment to sound like i wuz hating cuz your right sometimes less is better

[TAPDADA]

okay cool, well i'm sorry for coming to that conclusion. i didn't mean any harm. :)

[p3c3]

Good music doesn't have to be hard to play and please remember that Rhodes piano line is just a part of bigger arrangement of "Blow Your Mind" - drums, bass, horns, synths, vocals, etc. and Jamiroquai is extremely good at it. Even if there are few chords still you have to make it right. Do not consider music just as technique. I think it's mostly emotion, feeling and whole idea. And what can I say more? For sure there are people that are able to play it better than me. Cheers people.

[TAPDADA]

I agree entirely, you played it nicely, kept a nice feel, stayed in time, and thats what alot of musicians who are playing a reasonabley rhythmic piece of music without band or metronome struggle with. I think you pulled it off very well.

[2base]

cxxl

[brownjoe2]

that was heaps tight

rhodes pride

love it

[JasonKayLove]

Nice!!!!

[LewiTunes]

wow, youre good.

[boxfactoryband]

[thenos4rat2]

[lokkke]

[AtrumAethra]

UGH I WANT A RHODES SO BADLY!!!!

[tacou]

[macizo25]

[JimJammBassMan]

Epic cover- I'm playing along with my bass! You should do the entire song my man!!

[timefly]

Nice playing, sounds like your instrument's in great shape, too. Did you plug into the amp straight off the harp? There's no 1/4" cable coming out the front...

[p3c3]

Yes, straight off the harp.

[canovakey]

Very good.

[Oskarbadoskar]

Great sound!! Rhodes is definately the best-sounding keyboard/piano in the world.

[Idium86]

nice!

[jomarcavalcanti]

feraking awesome dude.. got me goosebumps.. if that's the word.. LOL

[AKOutback]

GREAT sounding Rhodes. man Il ove that

[boahkim]

I absolutely LOVE this song!!! You could tell me the chord changes or do a tutorial video on this please? I'm a piano major and am a HUGE fan of Jamiroquai! Thanks. :o)

[lokkke]

[oysterlovers]

[Mrm0ves]

Awsome! nice sound 2 ;)

[Nympheta2489]

muy bien!!!!

[kok3]

hey... your piano has no cable!

[p3c3]

Yes, the sound goes directly from the harp by RCA cable and it's out of view here.

[phaeton222]

Hmm, nice TONE!

Wondering if this is a 88 rhodes?

[p3c3]

Nope, it's 73.

[DerangedPGAD]

Simply Gawjus sound, Totally Nailed it!

[HammondB200]

the songs under 1 minute-concept is pretty cool and really helpful

[sStyle07]

Outstanding. I couldnt help but sing Jamiroquai's part...lol

[coledeluxe]

Thank you so much! This video has been a valuable resource in quickly learning this song!

[Sibosat]

Very beautiful!

[hksearplay]

great playing!!!

[nickyjlyons]

That was so incredible that when I heard the first 3 chords I was about to accuse you of playing the CD and pretending to play!! haha

Brilliant

[p3c3]

Lol.. :) Thanks.

[jpatrickgreen]

Just awesome!

[czendo]

Beautiful :) I love this sounds and you play it very wwell, I can hear Jamiroquai :)

[Lahed92801]

Hey man, what's the chord progression of this tune? is it Am-Dm11-Em11 then up a half step? Thanks!

[Ushiwakamaru0]

This is some serious, wake up in the morning and you know your gonna have a good day intro right here. That rhodes piano playing is awesome.

[destituteillusion]

yeaaaahhhhh!!

[negatio]

jak zawsze wszystko dopracowane :D naprawdę świetne. oby tak dalej!

pozdrawiam, Ewelina.

[dresef]

This is amazing - love the sound! We need more Jamiroquai covers that aren't Virtual Insanity.

What chords are you playing? I can make out the FM7 and Gadd9 but the next escapes me... The way I play it is with some sort of G#dim6b, but the only thing worse than my theory is my ear :(

[p3c3]

Thank you!

Well, I'm not good at theory so I can give you some chords only note by note ;)

1. FM7

2. notes G A H D

3. notes F# G# C E

And then is some half note up transposition.

[p3c3]

Sorry, the first one is F7# so the notes are F A C E. Sorry for the mistake.

[dresef]

Great got it, thanks. Please post more!

[JulkaRewizor]

świetnie. Troszeczkę w jednym momencie przyspieszasz, ale potem od razu jest powrót do prawidłowego tempa. Jest feeling, jest sound, fajnie się słucha :) Pozdrawiam i czekam na więcej! :)

[p3c3]

No, trzeba by zaczac cwiczyc do clicka i w ogole cwiczyc wiecej.. ;)

[JulkaRewizor]

hehe ;) i tak jest fajnie :)

[Grzehoo21]

fantastic!!! You're the man!!! I love it!

[delite222]

Wicked playing....im feeling those chords
