I've been a Tom Petty fan since the first album and middle school...American Girl still gets airtime on family road trips often...
Full Moon Fever was a staple in my Jeep in college, and when I was starting my career Wildflowers came out, which I thought was a masterpiece. When he made that album with Rick Rubin, it was the pinnacle of his career IMHO.
I don't know how many times I saw him, but the Wildflowers tour with Pete Droge (great musician in his own right) opening up in Cleveland, OH was epic. The show was outdoors at Blossom and hot as Hades, and he played 23 songs...never forget that concert...
If you like TP, and haven't seen it, the documentary Tom Petty Somewhere You Feel Free is worth a watch...it was made in '21 I think, just got around to watching it...
I really enjoyed it...lost him too soon...but he had a great career...
