The world lost a little light when he left...still hurts.

[@gail.r.4604]

This absolutely kicks it, especially considering it was re recorded in 1977. Great job! Thank you so much, please continue to share the “buried treasure and memories “ of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers”!

[@jordandickerson4069]

And this is, Our First Album. Our Only Album.

[@sbgoldma]

Still can't believe you're gone!!! RIP Mr.Petty 🎵🎸🎵🎶

[@dbart258]

How could all those fantastic songs be written when they were babies. Breakdown is my favorite song! I loved this when I bought the album in 1978 and here we are in 2020 still loving my rock & roll crush.

[@dawnoleary4907]

man stayed home from the bar when girls were bar long Island teas they came back. Here is Tom Petty ❤.

[@jordandickerson4069]

Not Bad in 2025 Either.

[@gail.r.4604]

Still Rockin 2025!

[@avenuePad]

Fantastic. I love Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers so much. Thank you for sharing this.

[@deweyoxburger2963]

What a blast from the past. Right when I discovered them in 10th grade. Who knew that when I was 58 this would be the only band I would listen to. No need to listen to anything else. Can't wait until the Honyack leaves the house tomorrow so I can crank it up all the way!!!! Edited to add: Now that I can crank the volume to devcon 10...Probably the most raw, crisp and passionate version of American Girl I have ever heard. OOOFFFFF!!!Hell, they are all !!!!!

[@bobross5580]

I am 58 too and this about all I listen too anymore, I play guitar and just thrive on Mike Campbell and his technique :)

[@briankelly5432]

Dewey Oxburger yah. Grade 9 No little wonder Great band. Wow. I remember that first album. And then. The second. Yore gonna get it.

[@Widdle0823]

Darn straight no dislikes. The world may not be doomed after all.... :)

[@bennythedog93]

Man… Fooled Again is such a great song!! Just wow!!

[@janhensley5410]

I love Tom Petty’s voice. It changes in such a cool way when he wants to emphasize certain lyrics in his songs. Makes me smile. 😊💘🎸🔥🥰🎩❤️

[@paulelliott3220]

[@KOERTVANDRIEL]

Yeah sound great ...except for Mike's unaudible guitar soloing !

[@gailremp8389]

Our dear criituc is obviously too young to remember what original rock concerts sounded like.

[@mac92gli]

This is smokin hot. Everyone in this band was a great live player

[@grantharper7515]

[@nancydanon-smith9242]

This is from our first album- only album! Wow! Just wow!

I Need to Know and Listen to Her Heart are from the second, which wasn’t released yet. But point taken

[@marymrkich3951]

Thanks so much Allyn Kessler for posting these old shows from abroad👏! To see TP & HB at their begining is just magical 😊! God I miss him...

[@Bea-f4g]

I just love dog on the run when mikey gets all psychedgelic

[@flowerdoyle3749]

1985 Southern Accents Documentary has the boys playing Dog on the Run on top a hotel in Florida at the end of the vid...they get busted by the noise police!

[@richardblock2458]

So great. What a band.

[@cbes-lr5hs]

Still remember those long hair. It’s nice to be young again 😊. Amazing talent 😎

[@gailremp8389]

Log God yes. Well, it’s Labor Day so I guess I should do Somethung while watching a very young R TP…

[@gailremp8389]

Hadn’t watched in a while..after the hurricane in FL just what I needed Sunday after power out at my place for 3 long-ass days..

❤BRAVO! 😅😢FANTASTIC musician RIP Tom Petty

[@noracollins1655]

Amazing!! Thank you.

[@mt5464]

💘🎸💘...thank you so much Allyn! One of my favorite shows.

[@Killstrike6660]

I think this the show Tom was talking about in the movie where they got stopped in customs for a hash pipe and Ron ate his hash and was really stoned. If not then it was a different one🤪

[@PimiPetty]

Thanks for this!! Love to TPaTHB!

[@buddyskinner1633]

❤ American Girl!

[@ritacarrot6185]

Thank you for posting❤

[@gailremp8389]

This is cool. My first concert was Elton John’s time in US in 1971-ish and was thrilled at all.. this is cool.

[@kengauhl6636]

Someone obviously thought that "Breakdown" was called "Luna." Great concert as you would expect from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers'.

[@gailremp8389]

Probably put in comment with different song After it changed or not ..wharever works..

[@heatherneitzke3858]

So good!!💘🔥🎸

[@jordandickerson4069]

And on Alcohol and Lead Guitar, Mike Campbell.😅

[@jebarr1]

Think this is dhiwbthat Ron Blair are a brick of hash before

[@mattthrun-nowicki8641]

Wasn’t this the show before which Ron swallowed all that hash?

[@RichardMcLamore]

this is the 1 when the bassist swallowed a crap ton of hash right b4 going through customs

[@andrewgoodwin9385]

Yup! Ron Blair.

[@hippielove3100]

Yes lol

[@nancydanon-smith9242]

And never missed a beat!

[@mattthrun-nowicki8641]

I think it is!

[@rapman5791]

Jesus Christ, A less enthusiastic crowd could not be found on either side of the Atlantic Ocean 🤦‍♂️

[@mattthrun-nowicki8641]

Despite a red hot performance. That’s one of the signs of professionalism- playing with fire when it feels like no one’s listening

[@KOERTVANDRIEL]

Such a great band they were - only thumbs down on this video : most of the time Mike's guitar prowesses are unaudible ..... and the german audience's participation really isn't very stimulating for the band.....

[@gailremp8389]

Were you even seeing concerts in 1976?. What do you expect. What you got was what you got..just enjoy..and chill and give GD thanks it was even recorded…peace

[@kellie9668]

You're probably like me thinking "do they even realize the absolute greatness of the band in front of them?" I watch some of the videos of their live performances in other countries, and some seem enthusiastic while others appear to seem like they got free tickets lol I'm grateful it was recorded and I'm sure most of the folks in attendance realized soon how great TP &H were and how lucky they were to witness it.
