As one of the exemplars of modern Soul and R&B, ask anyone and they'll tell you Raphael Saadiq is amongst those most renowned and respected. A figurehead with credentials stretching as far back as we at PinBoard remember in our bibs; weather handed down Toni Tony Tone cassettes, bumping Ummah (Saadiq, Tip & Jay Dee) produced joints, incessantly reloading Lucy Pearl and Instant Vintage during teens, relinquishing virginity to the iconic co-written/produced 'Untitled' record for D'Angelo, or most recently as grown-up music professionals over the last three years lending exposure to this gentleman's revivalist phase . You could say, we've always had a special relationship with Ray Ray.

We're now truly honoured to have Mr. Saadiq armed with a burning, bluesy bass guitar perform his latest work especially for us. A searing gesture to love and responsibility, 'Good Man' is of our favourite songs of 2011 so far.

You can also catch him on at Shepherds Bush Empire on the 28th April. New album Stone Rolling is out now in the UK and May 10th in the US.

  • Beautiful song...who is that playing the hell out of that lead guitar? Don't I've ever heard a Fender Strat sound that nice.

  • I know he better hurry up and get married or I'm gonna go to every show he does and marry him....lol...SERIOUSLY tho... Raphael Saadiq is all of that! He is so under rated and his talent is beyond touchable.

  • Amazing! the guitar is simply beyond amazing!

  • I've been there, really feeling this song right now.

  • So well played. Love how he puts in those soft Hendrix licks from 2:47

  • This is good. Don't see how it's acoustic though, at all. They're playing an electric bass and guitar.

  • Music like this makes me forget all the things I'm angry about.

    If there IS a heaven. I hope it sounds like this...

    ...and I hope I'm cool enough to get in.

    OR I hope there's YouTube in hell :)

  • @Leevice001 How are you playing the chords? I'm not knowledgeable about music at all so i tried bar chords and it doesn't sound like it.

  • @everythingisoverrate Its just A and Bm progression with some kind of variations.

  • thats my name too Raphael:D

  • I love this song! it is such a throw back to good R&B.

  • check out the acoustic music I write and make please and thanks !
