Morbius's sister recently posted a high school photo of him on Friendbook and for a beat or two I really thought it was something from the Emitt Rhodes group. #OneThread

Wonder if anyone ever revealed who "You're a Very Lovely Woman" was supposed to be about.

Finally watching that video I just posted. Not sure if there is anything new in it.

I walked by a hand car wash on an industrial street of woodside queens this morning and heard With My Face On the Floor blasting. It was an odd location for that.

This cool, new-to-me track giving me heavy Emitt Rhodes vibes though I think Rhodes would've taken this up several notches lyrically

And something kind of sweet on social media about him.

As did Keith Olsen.

I also think any Eagle who says they weren't blowing rails and listening to this song from five years earlier on repeat when they wrote "Hotel California" is lying.https://t.co/F7RAWxN0lB

New cover of "Promises I Made" by Black Keys guy mentioned here.

Feels a little too slow to me upon first listen, but the story is nice.

“And of course the Emitt Rhodes song at the end [Promises I’ve Made]. I think that was the first song I recorded, and it was on the day that Emitt died. That was what set the fire for everything because I liked this new recording set-up and how it turned out, so I just kept going”.

Sounds like he was trying to make sound like something off Abbey Road. #onethread

Mrs. Redd is watching some new Star Trek thing and there is an Emitt-looking guy on the screen right now.

Johnny Thunderwords (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 7 May 2022 01:12 (one year ago) link

No doubt headed to the Space Lobster.

That vinyl copy of American Dream I got is gorgeous...the prior owner(s) took really good care of it. Might be my favorite Emitt release.

Also noticed some Emitt included on the playlists last shared here: Obscure Singles Heard at CVS

“Isn’t It So” is my jam.

What, the reply? They mentioned it on Friendbook.

Is “Isn’t It So” about his mother? Although it is obvious written to seem as if it is about an ex.
