Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Long After Dark: Deluxe Edition (New Release Review)

[@garyjoyce2160]

Not the biggest. Petty fan, however the 7️⃣9️⃣. Damn the TORPEDOES is an album I like a ton. Don’t do me like that , even the losers. Refugee. Good stuff. Thanks for this review. The Donald 👍💯

Definitely their finest album. I'd check out "Southern Accents" too, and "Wildflowers" is a great solo record from Petty. Cheers!

@@independenceltd. / i do own all albums from 76/85. But after that I didnt hate him , just kinda of fell off my radar. I know all the songs on that big 89 selling album. I may start revisiting him, he did have some good stuff. It’s the time element. lol 👍💯

@@garyjoyce2160 that '89 album is where he fell off for me too. didn't own it forever. i actually think the non-hits are the better songs on the album.

Petty is not an artist I have ever really explored. Heard him plenty on the radio but his more commercial stuff wasn't my cup of tea. If there are some good deeper tracks in his catalogue, I might check him out at some point.

I definitely prefer the Heartbreakers material from '76 - '85. I like his first two solo albums and then both Traveling Wilburys and Mudcrutch albums.
