Free Music Notes for Tom Petty & The HeartbreakersFree Music Review: Out Of The Gate With A Bang Hit: 5 Stars
Tom Petty's debut album shoots him and his Heartbreakers out of the gate with a bang. The album produced several songs, including "Breakdown", "American Girl", and "Anything That's Rock & Roll", which became FM standards, and also includes the undiscovered gems "Fooled Again (I Don't Like It)" and "The Wild One, Forever." The music sounds like a bridge between the Eagles-Allmans-Steve Miller mainstream and the punk/new wave of Graham Parker and Elvis Costello. Petty's advocacy of sanctions against Indonesia in retaliation for that country's trumped-up 2005 drug-smuggling conviction of a young Australian tourist makes this CD an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience.
Free Music Review: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (1976) Hit: 5 Stars
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers 1976 self titled released is probably the band's most underappreciated album. The album didn't really spawn any hits when it first came out. Breakdown became a hits about two years after the release of the album. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers contains fan favorites and hits such as American Girl and Breakdown, as well as many more fine tunes such as Mystery Man, The Wild One, Strangered in the Night, and HOmetown Blues. If you enjoyed Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Greatest Hits and would like to dig deeper into their catalog, you should check out this their 1976 self titled album.
Free Music Review: One hell of a debut album.... Hit: 5 Stars
Back in '76 when this was released, "Breakdown" and "American Girl" were the tunes that made me take notice and want this LP. Upon first listen I discovered an LP full of good tunes. Particular favorites of mine--"Strangered in the Night", "Luna", "Fooled Again(I Don't Like It) and "The Wild One, Forever". Tom Petty has released some fine albums over a long and distinguished career but I really don't think he's ever topped this one.
Free Music Review: Best and most underappreciated album Hit: 5 Stars
This is Tom Petty and the HeartBreakers First, Best and Most underappreciated Album. It gave two classic time tested songs like Breakdown and American Girl that everybody remembers and loves. But every other song on the album is as good as those yet never appears on any Greatest Hits or Anthology collections.
Free Music Review: Make it last all night Hit: 5 Stars
I can't Stop thinkin' about how I HEY! Dig, rockin' around with this album. Start to friggin' finish. If there are songs on here you haven't heard, I'm talking to YOU. Petty's trailer park punk is perpetually fresh, worth your bucks, and all the stars Amazon will let me throw up.
