Re: Official Tom Petty Thread

Eberg, That's a phenomenal bio on Petty!!!!

I became a fan as soon as I heard "Refugee" for the first time & yes, 'Damn the Torpedoes' is still my favorite album although I really love the recnt Live Box set because it has a few tracks from one of the best Live Broadcasts I have ever heard...
Back in '97 they had a wild 3 hour show of Petty at the Fillmore in San Francisco broadcast live over 97 Rock FM in my area. I really mean that when I say it was one of the best shows I ever heard by ANY band. Petty did all his classics but the covers he played were unbelievable. He played stuff like "Green Onions", "Louie Louie", "Bye Bye Johnny","Gloria", "Time is on My Side", "Satisfaction", "It's All Over Now","You Really Got Me" & a bunch more!

One of the reasons I'm so psyched to see them this summer, I have Rock Goes To College:Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers recorded from BBC Crown Jewels on TV and another one from BBC CJ on there, also their Soundstage performance... Covers in all of them, they play stuff from the newest album and the old ones, and always packed with energy, crowd interaction and a very fun vibe:grinthumb

If you're a Petty freak - and you are - then this is a must have!

The sound quality is crystal clear...it's amazing.

I bet you one day, this concert will be released as an official Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers live album.

is it officially released or just an easy to find bootleg? Have you heard the Official Live 'Leg? The UK version has The Wild One Forever, and it is awesome, their cover of Chuck Berry's Jaguar and Thunderbird isn't shabby either:grinthumb

The new album, Mojo, is set to drop June 5, since it got pushed back, they added a few dates to the beginning of the tour:grinthumb

Re: Official Tom Petty Thread

Pirates are losing a five point lead quickly, and I'm bored, so I found this browsing youtube... cool cover, I don't like it quite as much as Skynyrd's version, but this is really cool either way:D
