New Speedway Boogie - DeadCoversProject - Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers

[@JeffreyPepperRodgers]

Thanks... This arrangement is actually regular dropped D (first string tuned normally). I just recorded this for a project called Dead to the Core, an EP of Dead tunes (including "Fire on the Mountain" and "Stella Blue") performed with solo guitar and voice. That'll be released digitally in March '10.

Excellent version. Great use of Drop D and groove. I dig your singing style.

[@JeffreyPepperRodgers]

[@billder999]

Outstanding arrangement of this great song, vocals are dead on, especially the wailing bluesy ending. Watched all your vids and just subscribed to your page. It seems you stopped posting new videos... I hope you will continue, enjoy your work very much.

[@mikegregory154]

love this song......Really good take on it!!

[@therandomguy3]

wow. great intro man. really like this version. its fresh and smokey. keep it up!

[@sneakypower576]

I LOVED IT!

[@JeffreyPepperRodgers]

Thanks... It's dropped D tuning (sixth string down to D). I focus less on the chords and more on the groove and bass line--lots of muting and string percussion. And I echo some of the lead guitar riffs (Garcia on electric guitar) on the original record.

[@JeffreyPepperRodgers]

@ccdeweese Yup, and Bruce Cockburn.

[@mamboslug]

super nice

[@richiemabie]

Tight as hell ! By far the best cover I have ever heard period. Drop D works so good on this. By the way that Alverez sounds schweet all day. I have a Masterworks series MD 60 . What kind is that

[@MrDonovant]

Jeffery, Great playing man! I learned so much from copping this arrangement from you, thanks! :-D Love your phrasing and approach, singing and everything else. Great double drop-D voiceings...I just wish I could sing like you. ;) lol Thanks again!

[@JeffreyPepperRodgers]

The only string retuned is the low (bass) E string down to D.

[@SouthMeckStunna]

Definitely the best cover I've seen on KZbin. Nice job 👌🏻

[@JeffreyPepperRodgers]

Thanks, Brian.

[@JFizoust]

Sweet! Nice job dude!

[@SheaMasonMusic]

[@JeffreyPepperRodgers]
