Hi Robert, this sounds excellent, I don't know the original, and now I don't have to : )

Daryl - Thanks for the comments. I appreciate your insight and will give it another listen.

BOTR - He was all alone. Sounds more like a vagabond out for the first time. At least that's the impression I got from the lyrics.

Rik - Thanks for listening! I love this song and I'm glad you like it!

This is amazing work. I'm trying to play this track as well but stuck on the drums part. I play guitar and playing vocals on this one but any suggestion on how to create the drums track? I currently use Garageband.
 
Thanks.

I'm not a big TP fan but I do like this song....  and this version.  
 
Nice job all around, everything seems to mesh together pretty well, and it seems like you have quite a few layers to mesh.  
 

It's been a while for this one. Thanks for the good words! I appreciated it.
 
PM me and I'll try and dig up the midi file. The drums were not correct so I just rewrote them. The fill toward the end isn't like the original though.

I love most everything TP does and you've nailed the vibe totally with this really nice and clearly lovingly crafted cover. Great mix too! This song was written by Jeff Lynne I believe, they did a lot of work together. Anyway, I'd love to see your track list for this. Great work!

Great song!

Shine On!

Apparently I missed this one when first posted.  I'm glad that I found it.  Great job on this number!!

Nice work.  I like TP and you did a good job on this.  Faithful to the original, and if one was to hear this on the radio one would be hard pressed to recognize that this wasn't TP.
 
The harmony "learning to fly" voxs fit superbly well.
 
Yep, good job. 

Thanks to Steve for resurrecting this thread, as I missed this one the first time, too.
 
Takes nerve to cover such a familiar tune (also one of my Heartbreakers favorites) and honor the original as you did. I for one wouldn't have attempted it. Or if I did, it would have come out sounding nothing like the original! 
 
Now, 3.5 years later, I bet you could nail a Petty tune even better, eh? Maybe "Into the Great Wide Open"?
