Great tune.


 
Has always been my favorite.  When I was kid I thought he was kind of a jerk to the subject..."it don't really matter to me baby, everybody's had to fight to be free", then I grew up and I kind of believe in that line.

Great tune.


I remember watching Live Aid on TV when I was 11, but not knowing 90% of the musicians that performed.
When Petty came on, my jaw dropped.  I had never heard of him, but he was the high point of the entire event for me.  Right from the start, when I got my first guitar a couple of years later, I wanted to play like that.

How sad.
 


“Beer is proof God loves us and wants us to be happy” is attributed to Benjamin Franklin perhaps in error, but the thought remains a worthy sentiment nonetheless.

"Was his own genre".
I think he kept good old guitar rock and roll alive through the '80s and '90s. Without the angst.
His music was a big part of my life back then. Our band played a few of his tunes. 
Listening to Greatest Hits right now.
Coincidentally, "Free Fallin' " came on just as I scrolled into LP's post.

they're all kinda the same, in a way.... story telling.

Re: Tom Petty may be dead 2017/10/04 12:40:19 (permalink)
Monday night I spent some time comparing levels of music videos on YouTube, to see how they conformed to the -11 LUFS standard YT uses (right-click on a video and select "stats for nerds"). Clearly, some are mastering specifically for YouTube now (many, many others are definitely not and the difference is clearly audible).
 
This one was one of the best-sounding vids I checked out. According to YT it's at -0.5 dB below the target. It was made after Roy's death so he're represented by a photo on a table, and I was thinking "George is now gone, I wonder which Wilbury will be next?". Got my answer the very next day.
 



All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

I did the same, listening to Petty's greatest hits on my 2 mile walk.  I noticed how awesome the guitar tone was, as well.  I also noticed that the songs were done with minimal tracks, only what was needed for each song.  That made the songs sound so clean and clear.

One clip to see...

The way it should be.

Two internal 2TB SSDs laptop stuffed with Larry's deals and awesome tools. Studio One is the cat's meow as a DAW now that I've migrated off of Sonar. Using BandLab Cakewalk just to grab old files when migrating songs.

Wow, I didn't even know that Garry had passed last year!  Both at 66...
 
That was an interesting clip.  Two guys trying to kick back and have a casual conversation, but surrounded by cameramen!  "Now act natural!"  Like Dilbert says, it's impossible to "act" natural!
