I love Jeff and this song ❤❤❤❤

[@randicam]

Actually it’s “Heartbreaking” for me to watch these. Tom passed away a few months later 😭

[@Cosmo-Kramer]

Wow! What a treat to hear Jeff sing lead on one of the many great Petty songs he co-wrote and produced for Tom! And then to have Susanna sing backup with her bandmates! Oh, this is too good to be true!!! Please post whatever else you have from this event as soon as you can, mate! Thanks!

Jeff a class act.Wish Tom Petty was still around to collaborate with him.

[@randicam]

He really is… The soft spoken gent amongst all those outlaws in the Traveling Wilburys

[@nkentable]

it always sounded kinda like a wilburys song. this performance is classic

[@richardsutton1131]

Absolutely LOVE this. My ultimate favorite on lead vocals with two bands who I also love! Also great to see Dhani there too!! 😊

[@randicam]

The “Person of the Year” makes decisions from who the stage bands will be and whether or not they want session musicians to join. Every artist on the planet wanted this gig! ❤

[@randicam]

Dhani was all smiles represented his Dad, Jacob Dylan played “Love is a Long Road”… !!!

It can’t be like from 2020 unless Tom Petty came back from the dead

[@randicam]

Thank you for pointing out the error in the title! The Grammy / Musicares gala concert was in 2017, months before Tom’s death.

[@randicam]

Hence the chant Jeff Jeff Jeff!

[@jdmac44]

What year was this? Thanks for the upload!

[@MuppetOne]

Says 2017 in the text, not sure if this is deffo.

[@randicam]

You’re so welcome! Tom was honored with MusiCares Person of the Year on February 10, 2017. I will post a few more but have other requests to fulfill first.

Thank you for sharing. Did you happen to get “Waiting For Tonight” from that gig? There isn’t a great video of it, and it’s perhaps the only live performance of that song. Thanks!

[@randicam]

I will check. The video of “Stop Dragging” is awesome but the sound is wonky.

[@s2seltaeb]

@@randicam Thanks for checking. Someone got a clip of "Waiting For Tonight" on the other side of the room, but you had a great angle to the stage, so I would love it if you had that song. Thanks!

[@randicam]

@@s2seltaeb “Waiting for Tonight” isn’t any good visually (waiters kept walking by) so it’s not worth editing. Bummer! ☹️

[@s2seltaeb]

@@randicam I appreciate you looking! Can you tell if you have any visuals of how Mike Campbell is playing the lead guitar parts? Especially the solo?

[@lucjanostruszka990]

What event was it? Any normal recording?

[@randicam]

The MusiCares Gala is held the Friday evening before the Grammys. It is an auction and cocktail reception, dinner and concert honoring the Person or Band of the Year. In 2017, Tom Petty was honored and performed with the Heartbreakers + after many other tributes by close friends and top recording artists. DVD’s used to be available and it is professionally recorded but I believe the last public release was in 2012- the year Paul McCartney was honored.
