Tune of the Week: RIP Dexter Romweber

Dexter Romweber was a true rock ‘n’ roller. He devoted to the form of the music, playing mostly covers of long forgotten songs played on ancient jukeboxes. He adhered to the form’s inherent lack of perfection and played with wild abandon on his electric guitar. His band, The Flat Duo Jets, made a barnburning appearance in the documentary “Athens, GA” in the early 80s, but didn’t put out a record until much later. Hype and glory were never the emphasis, only the rocking and the rolling. He passed away on February 16 of this year and joined the great jam in the sky. RIP Dex!
