Emitt Rhodes is the second album by Emitt
Rhodes, released in 1970. Rhodes recorded
the album in his home studio. At the time, union
rules required that recordings released on
major labels must be recorded in proper
studios, so the fact that this was a home
recording could not be mentioned on the cover.
The runout groove of the original LP release on
Dunhill Records contained a decorative banner
proclaiming, "Recorded at Home." Rhodes
wanted to call the album Homecooking, but
Dunhill decided to title it Emitt Rhodes. Rhodes
recorded the instruments on a four-track
recorder and then approached Dunhill, who
gave him a contract. He transferred the four-
track instrumental recordings to an eight-track
recorder to add the vocals on the four additional
channels (and using a better microphone). The
album reached number 29 on the Billboard
album chart. The single "Fresh as a Daisy"
reached number 54 on the Hot 100. Billboard
later called the album one of the "best albums
of the decade". The song "Lullabye" was
featured in the film The Royal Tenenbaums.
