Tom Petty (1 Viewer)

[Carlito]

He's an artist I've always felt I should take the time to get to know. Anybody have a recommendation on where to start?

 

[Kermit McDermott]

All I have is a 2 CD best of called Anthology through the years. The dude can write songs.

Damn the torpedoes & Full moon fever would be safe bets I'd say.

Full Moon Fever and Into the great Wide Open are excellent but probably worth getting an anthology and going to the albums of the stand outs from there. Man's a genius songwriter, one of my all time faves.

 

[Carlito]

Thanks guys. I'll check out an anthology.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Big love to my man Vincent Hanley for getting me into this genius.

Was looking at getting his stuff myself, thanks to Radio Nova for playing more of his stuff. Will check out the recommendations.

I watched (was forced to watch actually) a documentary on Tom and his prick band.

He's about as boring as his songs.

Which is very boring indeed.

I heard Breakdown on the radio a few weeks ago and remembered what I great song it was. Then heard American Girl in a shop and thought the same. Grabbed some best-of compilation and have been listening to it a fair bit over the last few weeks. Some great stuff but get's increasingly dodgy as time goes on. My six year old daughter is mad into it though. I put on AC/DC the other day and she made me turn it off saying that Tom Petty is much better.

Going to be down in Cork on Friday night ... I do have the urge to go and see him .....

 

[therealjohnny]

The early stuff is great. I still think of Full Moon Fever as his 'new' album..it's 20 years old! I think The Marquee gig is sold out but I'm sure there's be a few tickets knocking around

 

[rettucs]

you can hear the sound from the Marquee pretty well out on the road. I found that out when I left a Grizzly Bear gig after 1 song a couple of years ago

Don't come around here no more.

he sure don't
