I don't understand the allure of amp tremolo. I assume it was an attempt to simulate a Leslie rotating speaker? I think a Leslie in the room sounds cool because it's something you experience and not just hear but for the most part Tremolo on an amp is a completely unused effect for me.
Doubting myself I did a search for hit songs with tremolo and found a handful of songs that I recognized. Was tremolo on an amp a super desirable thing at one time? Why do so many amps have it? I feel like I've been missing something for almost 50 years.
