I have three different ones I check but they involve some cool road/shopping trips as they are all roughly two hours away down state. I guarantee Tom Petty has rarities. I'm sure he's released singles with b-sides on them. You just have to check every music store you go to obsessively. I much prefer this scavenging to internet scavenging by the way. The clicking of an internet search engine is just a lifeless way of searching for me but in a music shop I just get excited as I eyeball for material. The internet is good for stuff I'll never be able to acquire a physical copy of. For example, I never thought that Billy Corgans first band The Marked would ever have songs on youtube and while doing my Smashing Pumpkins thread I got to hear it for the first time. It's not ownership but if I know that's the closest I'll get to the material then it's better than nothing and a gift just to experience that history!
very true... I forgot about the b side singles because those were all put into the 6 disc compilation Playback.. its either six or seven discs I can't remember, along with some of the live stuff, the other two anothologies have covered just about everything recorded live
I just looked up all the singles from TP, there are only three that are not on an album, and that includes Mudcrutch... and the Mudcrutch two are depot Street and Up In Mississippi which I've never even seen.... I've at least seen the other ones, but I have to find that one, so thanks for inspiring me to do that
hyeah:. 14, both albums and cd's.
