"All This Is That" live in 1994...Really hard to see the typeface on the front from this vantage...they were using Ensoniq TS-10s and TS-12s, as well as Korg M1s and 01/Ws and Roland D50s and RD500s around this time...this doesn't really look like one of those Korg models, but can anyone tell for sure?

Judging by the thickness of the keyboard and what I can make out of the font on the back, I am guessing Roland RD500.

Thanks...how about the keyboard Richie Cannata is playing on this '95 version of "Sail On Sailor"?  It's only visible a couple of times when the camera pans to the far left:

One of the comments under the "All This Is That" video says it's a Rhodes Keyboard Carl is playing.

It's a Rhodes sound, but it isn't a Fender Rhodes electric piano. Even the later Rhodes Chroma, which was more of a synthesizer than an electric piano, would be thicker/larger than the keyboard Carl is playing.

That's a tough one. Judging by the logo it looks like Korg.. Perhaps a Korg Triton? I've seen Tritons with the same logo layout etc, but they were white, so this is just a stab in the dark.

Edit: It looks like a Korg N364, but that was released in '96... So my final guess is Korg X5.

Thanks...from what I've read, the Triton didn't hit the scene until '99, and you're right about the color...but the X5 fits the bill.

Whatever it is...it kills the song! I hate those cheesy 80's electric piano sounds...they resemble a piano about as much as Bruce Johnston resembles Oprah Winfrey.

Wonder how his bank account compares to Oprah's....probably closer than it should be
