His piano chops, his songwriting, his voice... it's criminal that Rai isn't better known

[@lilsponge777]

I agree on that one for sure.. Absolute beast. Good vibes live too.

[@bkloppt]

"Here we go!" ... and the Band switches in beast mode ...

[@chicagospots]

Nobody can play like Rai! Those bonus sixteenth notes to move the rhythm forward is his signature.

[@aurelienparent-koenig4125]

This is nuts, just amazingly good

[@Beaut_Beau]

Rai Thistlethwayte. A living legend. Love this dude!

[@fryderyk2462]

Finally, Rai playing with a complete rhythm section...with such a bassist, we can see the liberation of his great left hand...

[@paulfaganpianist]

Quality! Nord being like 'oh you can't afford the Nord Grand? Okay well here's a freakin savage player for you just to make sure you're properly curled up, crying in a little ball' 😂

[@adrianfundescu5407]

You can afford a Nord Electro 5 that loads all the piano libraries(Midi controler 88,any).And use the organ.More than enough.And the piano ( an El Grand ) used here can be''faked' with N synths.The way he plays...that's not Nord...it's the guy;-)

[@petert8507]

This guy can really play(sing too!) Thank you Rai for putting a smile on my face!

[@nezkeys79]

Rai is so up my street. Nice mix of funk jazz and pop. One of my fave artists for sure

[@BruceGriffith-i8w]

This whole thing is great! This drummer is sweet on the 2 & 4 with his snare! U always know where he's at ! Pocket but tricky little special stuff if u listen.

[@mattizchilled4041]

This song has more lively improvisation than original. Great job

[@mikaellarsson20]

Thanx Rai.

[@colbalt95]

Oh my gosh! This feel has Stevie Wonder written all over it!!!

[@adrianfundescu5407]

Not really.

[@adrianfundescu5407]

More like Withney Houston ,''How will I know''...and some Huey Lewis.

[@csharp57]

@@adrianfundescu5407 Many people will hear different things. As a person born and raised in church, I hear alot of late 80's and mid 90's gospel. I would love to know his influences

[@chester6343]
