No. 1582017·hard-rock·4 blocks
Highway Tune
Greta Van Fleet's breakout #1 rock single, tracked at Rustbelt Studios in Michigan with Marlon Young and Al Sutton. Jake Kiszka's tone is unapologetically Page-meets-Zeppelin: his 1961 Gibson SG 'The Beloved' through a Rangemaster-style germanium treble booster into a cranked Marshall Plexi-style head and a 4x12. Bright, raw, and snarling -- the treble booster is the whole secret. Standard E tuning.
