    KENNESAW STATE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MUSIC Tyrone Jackson Faculty Recital "Tribute to The Fender Rhodes in Jazz" Tyrone Jackson, fender rhodes Karla Harris, vocals Patrick Arthur, electric guitar Brandon Boone, upright and electric bass Chris Burroughs, drums Frankie Quinones, percussion Wednesday, October 18, 2017 at 8 pm Dr. Bobbie Bailey & Family Performance Center, Morgan Hall Twenty-eighth Concert of the 2017-18 Concert Season program This concert is a tribute to the iconic instrument, the Fender Rhodes. The Rhodes piano (also known as the Fender Rhodes piano or simply Fender Rhodes or Rhodes) is an electric piano invented by Harold Rhodes, which became particularly popular throughout the 1970s. CBS oversaw mass production of the Rhodes piano in the 1970s, and it was used extensively through the decade, particularly in jazz, pop, and soul music. The Rhodes became a staple in recordings and live performances for renown keyboard artists Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea. A resurgence of the instrument recently has been realized through jazz musicians Nicholas Payton and Christian Scott.

His boundless creativity coupled with subtle accompaniments has Tyrone poised for national recognition. TBorn in the New Orleans cradle of jazz, Jackson embodies the spirit of the Crescent City.

  • The Vox Continental
    Review: The Vox Continental ANDY BURTON · FEB 12, 2018 Reimagining a Sixties Icon The original Vox Continental, rst introduced by British manufacturer Jennings Musical Industries in 1962, is a classic “combo organ”. This sleek, transistor-based portable electric organ is deeply rooted in pop-music history, used by many of the biggest rock bands of the ’60’s and beyond. Two of the most prominent artists of the era to use a Continental as a main feature of their sound were the Doors (for example, on their classic 1967 breakthrough hit “Light My Fire”) and the Animals (“House Of The Rising Sun”). John Lennon famously played one live with the Beatles at the biggest-ever rock show to date, at New York’s Shea Stadium in 1965. The Continental was bright orange-red with reverse-color keys, which made it stand out visually, especially on television (which had recently transitioned from black-and-white to color). The sleek design, as much as the sound, made it the most popular combo organ of its time, rivaled only by the Farsa Compact series. The sound, generated by 12 transistor-based oscillators with octave-divider circuits, was thin and bright - piercing even. And decidedly low-delity and egalitarian. The classier, more lush-sounding and expensive Hammond B-3 / Leslie speaker combination eectively required a road crew to move around, ensuring that only acts with a big touring budget could aord to carry one. By contrast, the Continental and its combo- organ rivals were something any keyboard player in any band, famous or not, could use onstage.

  • Vox User Guide
    30/7/10 Page 1 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the Hollow Sun Vox Continental. It features samples from one of the most desirable keyboards of the 60s and 70s and which is still popular today . ABOUT THE CONTINENTAL The Vox Continental is probably the most famous of the 'new breed' of transistor organs that emerged in the early '60s. Previously, organs were built around tone-wheel technology. This undoubtedly created a fantastic (classic) organ sound but made the instruments heavy and unwieldy (and expensive). With the advent of transistors, it was possible to create lightweight, portable organs.... in theory. In practice, the majority sounded thin and weak by comparison. However, that sound in itself appealled to the new 'surf' and 'beatnik' music which was evolving at the time. The portability also appealled to groups. The Vox Continental was unusual in that it actually sounded quite good.... not cheap and cheesy like so many of its rivals. These organs used ‘divide down’ technology (like the later string synths) where there is a master top octave oscillator and all subsequent octaves are achieved simply by dividing the frequency in half and then half again and so on. It allowed these transistor organs to be manufactured very cost effectively. Although possibly better known for their amplifiers (the legendary AC30, for example), Vox actually started life as a manufacturer of 'traditional' home and church organs. With the emerging new micro' technology of transistors, they saw the possibility to use this technology in their products. 30/7/10 Page 2 The Vox Continental was the first of these (1962) and had drawbars to create sounds.
