    the 90s were a great time for soul music. so many new sounds and attitudes. D'Angelo, Maxwell, Erykah Badu ... and acid jazz in the UK. seemed like every week, we got something new.

    absolutely love all of the open studio vids. I've only been following for a few months and have already seen an enormous improvement in a few areas. Just a thought: an overhead view of the Rhodes instead of from the side would make learning fingerings easier in my opinion. Thanks Peter and Adam!

    The piano is not an antique Rhodes. It's a vintage vibe electric piano. New electromechanical piano in the same style but with a few more modern touches. Think of it like the Rhodes' grandkids. He intros the piano at length in another video they've put out

    Great lesson, very useful, and Peter really sounds wonderful. One thing : It's a detail, but on the chorus (or bridge, whatever you want to call it) it seems to me the 2nd degree is a flat II (Db7), and not a normal ii half-diminished (d 1/2dim)... or am I hearing things ?

    He’s mainly using the Cminor pentatonic (C - Eb - F - G - Bb) and adding the blue note (F#). But then he also plays some other pentatonics during the changes, like Fm penta or even G pentatonic to highlight the natural B.
