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.

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.

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