His music was a big part of my college experience in the late 70's and early

80's, I was a fan.

 

[RocketDawg]

Hate to hear that.

 

[Maroon Eagle]

Not quite yet.



But still...

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Damn. RIP

 

[tatedog]

Did not see that one coming. Timeless type of style he had.

 

[ronpolk]

I saw him at jazz fest earlier this year. He was great. Glad I got to see him.

 

[AlCoDog]

Damn. Saw him in Memphis a few months ago, and he was great. An all-time great songwriter.

 

[OneParticularHarbor]

Man, what a bummer

Petty was one of the greats.

 

[MeridianDog]

RIP Tom

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Damn. Saw him in Charlotte a few years ago. Great writer, great performer. Every one I knew had that Greatest Hits album (late 90's). If you didn't then you weren't worth knowing.

Great musician and performer. Mike Campbell is bad *** on lead for his band too..

 

[Drebin]

Apparently he won't back down.

Nothing but Petty for last hour..

 

[Predestined]

Not yet. But Generalissimo Francisco Franco is STILL DEAD.

Damn. Saw him in Charlotte a few years ago. Great writer, great performer. Every one I knew had that Greatest Hits album (late 90's). If you didn't then you weren't worth knowing.

That album is outstanding

 

[CochiseCowbell]

That album is outstanding

Wildflowers is very underrated. Echo wasn't bad. He collaborated with Johnny Cash on the latter's Unchained (hauntingly great).

It's the same sad echo all around in my ears
It's the same as the same sad echo around here"​

If you believe in forever, life is just a one night stand. If there's a rock-n-roll Heaven, you know they've got a helluva band.
