    Etna - s/t

    Il Baricentro - Sconcerto

    Herbie Hancock - Thrust

    And "Maximum" from Focus' much maligned Focus Con Proby. Not funky throughout, but it's got its moments.

    Check out the Ayers Rock cover of this one (Boogie Woogie Waltz).

    For me the best sounding Rhodes ever is on Steve Kuhn's album Trance on ECM from 1974. It was custom made to send out a stereo signal and sounds incredible. Only 2 tracks have Rhodes on the album, and this is probably the most funky of the two

    No Rhodes but a great tune. Listen to the drumming of the great Zigaboo Modeliste!

    Some funky real Rhodes (instrument borrowed from Mark Ptak of Advent) played by lead vocalist George Dobbs of 3RDegree. Doesn't come in until about 2 minutes in though:

    Maybe recommend something that doesn't promote yourself, Robert?

    Yeah, I'm a big fan of that album. I'll have to listen to it again based on your assessment.


    Rob, good call on the McCann. I had never heard the Paul Humphrey.

    In the realm of music we talk about here, I couldn't think of much funky Rhodes besides our example to be honest.
