    I never owned a TP album but saw him live twice in the last 10 years.  I'm really appreciating his influence.  He was one of a kind.

    Tom Petty's documentary, "Runnin' Down a Dream" is excellent! And Eddie makes an appearance!

    The key to any good Running Down A Dream cover is the quick acoustic strum in the chorus. So subtle but 1,000% perfect.

    Got this at the shows in St Paul in 06 when PJ opened.  Such great shows, the whole arena sang every word to all his songs. He certainly impacted American culture with his music. Gone too soon!

    Hard to believe it's been one year since TP's passing. Playing Wildflowers in full at office in remembrance. Missing him from afar. RIP, Tom.

    Feels like we lost him only a few months ago. Can't believe it's been a year.

    I HIGHLY recommend the new Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers "An American Treasure" 4-CD box set that just came out. I've been listening to it since the weekend (and as we speak) and it really helps salve the pain. Tom's great songs will live forever!

    I love Petty.  Mike Campbell is one hell of a good guitarist.  I really enjoy his style and he helped to create TP's sound.  Interesting that he's joined Fleetwood Mac.

    Got my American Treasure CD in the mail today.  Will be listening tomorrow on my way to work.  I miss this guy so much and so grateful got to see the Heartbreakers before he passed.

    For you into biographies, I'm reading the Warren Zanes one called Petty and it's fantastic.  Petty is interviewed throughout and early stuff on Sundowners, Epics and family life in Gainesville.  Highly recommended.
