		Bill alternates between the Rhodes and the Steinway, but generally the keyboards are recorded more distantly in the mix, and though Bill plays well, the performance of both doesn’t merit much comment.
		Rhodes players were hooking up these sound- modifying units all the time.
		Though somewhat disparaging sentiments were sometimes expressed about Bill’s choice of the Rhodes, he thought it all to be “kind of fun”, and although it can be occasionally a distraction, none of it takes away from the almost telepathic camaraderie and musical chemistry of the Evans-Gomez duo.

	Harold Rhodes: 1910-2000 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		He designed and developed the famous Fender Rhodes piano which became a trademark sound of the late-60s and early-70s in funk, soul, rock and pop music, and was fundamental to the development of jazz-rock and its offshoots in the music of artists like Miles Davis, Joe Zawinul, Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock.
		Unlike all other electric pianos of the day, the instrument was responsive to variations in touch on the keyboard, and had a rich, full-bodied sound which lent itself ideally to the fusion experiments of the era.
		Rhodes lost the rights to the brand name for a time, but regained them in 1997, and was said to have been investigating the possibility of relaunching his piano in association with other members of his family.

		Despite the "Suitcase" name (which served to differentiate it from the "Stage" model, which has spindly legs and no amp), it was barely portable, and I usually ended up letting it sit in my car for weeks at a time because I couldn't get anyone to help me carry it.
		By this logic, if my Rhodes was made in the 70's, it would have been a 1972 model.
		But after talking with the good people at Major Key (who bought out a lot of the original Rhodes hardware), I found out mine was made in 1981, the absolute worst year for the Rhodes company, in which clunky plastic parts replaced the original wood.

		Texas bluesman Sonny Rhodes is an acknowledged master of Texas blues and lapsteel guitar.
		Although could be somewhat disappointing for the Sonny Rhodes’ fan waiting breathlessly for Sonny to burn some licks on lapsteel, his clean, pure and well phrased guitar work throughout the CD more than makes up for the loss of lapsteel.
		Among my personal favorites on Texas Fender Bender are “Black Cat Phone,” “T- Bone Shuffle,” “Shoe On The Other Foot” and “Ya Ya.” Each has some great guitar, excellent vocals and the band is well rehearsed and tight on each song.
