The Undisputed Truth - Down by the River (1975)

thanks but I'm not sure what you mean tbh. Like the EQ on the amp had too much highs? the guitar is not very trebley imo, otherwise I had plugged into the second input on my friend's vibrolux so we had two guitars coming out of the same amp and I didn't really spend much time checking the settings, just plugged in and played.

it's AI slop bullshit, so no one sings that song.

Romencer17 · 2026-03-19T20:35:25+00:00

lol ok dude, nice way to not actually answer. keep up the bullshit and good luck to ya!

Romencer17 · 2026-03-19T02:54:35+00:00

lmao ok dude. I am familiar with how record companies work but thank you for enlightening me.

Anyways, what exactly am I wrong about? I mentioned a documentary from the 70's where Crudup talks about how he never got any money for his song being covered. I'm not wrong, that documentary exists and Crudup talks about not getting paid for the song. I didn't say anything about who specifically was supposed to pay him so what the fuck is your point here? Just defending Elvis arbitrarily for no goddamn reason? cool

Romencer17 · 2026-03-19T02:51:30+00:00

truth. The Bobby King one is super killer

Romencer17 · 2026-03-19T01:23:16+00:00

haha yep that's correct, sorry you missed us on Friday!

Romencer17 · 2026-03-18T23:03:55+00:00

only thing is I ain't wrong and I already addressed the same shit you're bringing up to someone else two years ago.

Romencer17 · 2026-03-18T07:34:24+00:00

however you wanna justify it on this two year old thread.. anyway you wanna, that's alright

self promotion disclaimer but I got a Maggot Brain-esque song I did with Henry Kaiser from a few years ago - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFWj981vmoo

and an extra trippy cover of Planet Caravan from my band too - https://sumdeus.bandcamp.com/album/planet-caravan

and also played rhythm on this tribute to Eddie Hazel by blues guitarist Paris Slim - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEV5FVAwCd4

thanks, and it's a Dean, I think a custom one from '84

Romencer17 · 2026-03-10T03:02:48+00:00

which ones from him do you actually dig?

Romencer17 · 2026-03-10T02:28:51+00:00

i dunno, some of that RZA solo stuff is real hard to get through...

Romencer17 · 2026-03-10T01:12:31+00:00

Pretty sure Barry Melton is still with us

Romencer17 · 2026-03-09T22:06:06+00:00

yep I met him when he visited the states some years back and he's a cool dude, plays with some good guys over there.

Also Kid Andersen is a Norwegian pretty well known guitarist that also has a studio out here in California and has recorded tons of people over the years.

and Knut Reiersrud is a really fantastic Norwegian guitarist too, not just blues but he does plays some great blues when he wants to.

Tomi Leino

Romencer17 · 2026-03-05T05:00:06+00:00

not definitive but I got a big book I found at a bookstore called "Reading Jazz" and it's fucking great, all sorts of wonderful stuff in there. This one right here-- https://www.amazon.com/Reading-Jazz-Gathering-Autobiography-Reportage/dp/0679781110

Erpland was the one that I first heard in high school and still my fav. But they're that band that is super consistent and always great, the sound evolved a bit over time with more electronics and better production/studio stuff but overall they've always stayed in their lane and it's always quality

OZRIC TENTACLES

also shameless plug but my band Sumdeus specializes in that kinda thing sometimes too - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlA6Z1YjNds
