Somebody Made For Me - Emitt Rhodes 4 Track Cassette Tape Cover

#EmittRhodes #4TrackTape #Portastudio
This is my tribute to the great Emitt Rhodes. I definitely felt even more of a connection to him as I holed up in my recording room and tried to recreate his music!
I referenced this interview with Emitt and Tape Op magazine to learn as much as a could about his recording process. A very worthy read: desertskiesmusic.com/EmittRho...

I am so glad you started making videos on RUclips again. I love all of your covers, going all the way back to your first ones. I want to be you when I grow up. Please keep them coming.

Fun watching a boy with his toys. Must be a labor of love. I love getting to see all the beautiful things on the walls. Amazing how much fidelity of the recording survives the transfers.

This is amazing! Emitt is one of my musical heroes, I remember finding that Tape Op interview a few years ago and it was like finding the holy grail for how Emitt recorded. Great work!

This sounds so so good and leaves me with a couple of questions: where did you find the interview where he lays out his process? And what microphones did you use for the drums if it’s ok to ask?
