Mary Jane's Last Dance = Dani California?
Always had a lot of time for them
Although 'Full Moon Fever' is probably my favouite, depite being a Petty solo album.
i've not heard that
i'll have to check it out
Full Moon Fever
Free Fallin'
I Won't Back Down
Runnin' Down a Dream
Zombie Zoo
essential!
that's solo stuff?
Not really
It's classed as a Tom Petty album rather than with The Heartbreakers, but it's still full band stuff, with most of the songs co-written and performed with Jeff Lynne. It's a bit like when Springsteen dropped the E Street Band in the late eighties. Except those albums were wack.
wrong way round
mary jane's last dance is fantastic though
my little
brother is called Tom Petty. Fact.
congratulations to him for his name :D
AMERICAN GIRL!
I knew a load of hippies
out in texas who hated everything that wasn't 60s folk... except Tom Petty. I've always had a soft spot for him cos of that. Learning to Fly is a great song
"damn the torpedoes"
best LP
bye
lotsa love
i think he/they are great.
actually just listened to "refugee" again
and its not as good as I remember when I was a nipper
I had a
revival of love after the Superbowl performance this year. It wasn't nearly as good as Prince the year before, but it still totally ruled, and i've been listening a lot this year as a result.
darn i missed that
i'd love to see them live

Classic bit of camera panning to a purpose picked fucking stunner in American Girl, you just gotta love the Superbowl.
If you can find the Prince show absolutely worth watching, one of the best things i've ever seen.
anyone seen the
Bogdanovich movie ?
I've heard it's pretty awesome
i was brought up on this
and leonard cohen and travelling wilberries...
and my dad is still annoyed that i'm obsessed with music. surely it's all his fault with a childhood like that.
Cohen
My mum played me Chelsea Hotel when I was like, 6 or 7, to see if I liked it. I shit you not, and whe wonders now why I'm a clinically depressed music nerd.
Loving TWs
I had a long car journey the other day with a back to back Travelling Wilburys sesh. I had the time of my LIFE!
tom petty = MOR shite
if you ask me...
that's
clever of you. How anyone can not enjoy listening to American Girl is beyond me.
but you like ryan adams?
it's not really a question of clever or not
just my opinion
YOU KNOW NOTHING!
yikes
That profile of mine needs updating. I'm not 18! I'm 21 now sadly.

No you aren't. Internet stalkz loloz!!!
Yes
always loved them, both my parents listened so was raised to think they're great.
My dad
had the greatest hits when i was a kid so i have a soft spot for them.
Amazing stuff.
