Bagels and cream cheese: a timeless and iconic pairing ๐ฅฏ
Itโll come as no surprise then that when we were tasked to build a custom Rhodes for LAโs Yeastie Boys bagels, the inspiration came from this classic duo.
We couldnโt be happier with the results! This 1974 Fender Rhodes stage 73 piano features a hand built cerused ash case with cream top and matching sustain pedal. It also has a hand polished stainless steel mirror name rail and resurfaced keytops. As always, it sounds even better than it looks - video coming soon!

Quincy Jones was out of this world. So much so that at the age of 31, he arranged Sinatra/Basieโs version โFly Me to The Moonโ, the first song played in space.
He had already spent three years as Americaโs first Black major label executive, as Vice President of Mercury Records. He arranged countless records at Mercury, for artists like Sarah Vaughan, Peggy Lee, Dinah Washington, and many more.
Before that, he spent his late 20โs in Paris, studying theory with Nadia Boulanger, who famously wouldnโt even take George Gershwin as a student.
Before formal schooling, at age 20, he went on the road as a trumpet player with Lionel Hampton, rooming with Clifford Brown, one of bebopโs greatest geniuses.
Even earlier in life, at age 14, he and Ray Charles become buddies in Seattle, playing for Bumps Blackwellโs Junior Band. They often played clubs 5 nights a week as teenagers.
In 1956, he music directed Dizzy Gillespieโs band. They toured Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.
By the time he met Michael Jackson on the set of โThe Wizโ in 1977, he already had 23 film soundtracks under his belt.
Their collaboration carried on for years. Perhaps most notably, they made โThrillerโ, the best selling LP of all time, in 6 weeks. Quincy often credits the lack of โparalysis from analysisโ for Thrillerโs success.
In the 80โs Quincy got into film production, co-producing โThe Color Purpleโ. He โdiscoveredโ Oprah, watching her as a newscaster from his hotel room in Chicago. He would cast her for the film and she would go on to become the worldโs richest woman.
He produced โWe Are The Worldโ in 1985, raising over $80,000,000 for famine relief in Ethiopia and Sudan, and subsequently the US.
These accolades donโt even scratch the surface. An Oprah quote from her journal can sum it up best. โHe is the light. No shadows. He brings joy. Just being around him is joyousโmakes me glad I was born.โ
RIP Quincy Delight Jones Jr

Built only for a few years at the end of Rhodes production, the 54 key model is pure mid range magic! This one, from 1980, received the full CEPCo stamp of approval including new tolex as well as a complete set of new pickups from our friends in the UK @rhodes.piano
