Free Music Notes for Anthology: Through the Years
Free Music Review: Simply Vintage Petty
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a must for all Petty fans. Not only for fans, but if you respect Tom Petty and like his work, this album is also for you. Sure, it has all of the great songs included in Greatest Hits, but also has much, much more. Inclusion of Hometown Blues, A Woman in Love, Straight Into Darkness, Rebels, and Jammin' Me, plus many more are great songs that finally have a collective home with other great Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers hits. This double CD set has not left my CD player since the moment I bought it! To Cameron Crowe (the genius behind this collection), kudos to you my friend.Free Music Review: Straight Into Darkness - 'Nuff Said!
Hit: 5 Stars
When I heard about this release I was skeptical for the fact that all 2 CD sets usually just throw around album cuts like a frisbee.
But I looked on the track listing and was shocked! "Straight Into Darkness", "Waiting For Tonight", "Too Much Ain't Enough" and "Two Gunslingers" were included and that was enough for me.
To the casual fan you will enjoy Tom / Heartbreakers at their best (despite the omission of Wilflowers material) and to the real TP / HB fans this is the one thing you'll need to pop in the player and just enjoy without having to do it yourself.
Free Music Review: Fantastic Carrer-Spanning Collection
Hit: 5 Stars
I already own "Greatest Hits", but this 2 CD set makes that seem sort of obsolete now. The one gripe I had with "Greatest Hits" was the fact that it didn't include "You Don't Know How it Feels" (Yes, I am very well aware that "Wildflowers came out the year after "Greatest Hits", but there was no reason he couldn't have included it as a new track), and while it is on this collection, one other song that I absolutely love is missing from here, "The Last DJ". How this gem was overlooked, I'll never know. Otherwise this is one of the great 2 CD career spanning sets I've ever come across.Free Music Review: A great place to start
Hit: 5 Stars
Of course any true Petty fan will want to own every single album he's ever made, but every journey must start with a single step! This has a lot of his better known stuff, obviously, but also some lesser known gems that should pique the curiosity of those who are unfamiliar with T.P. work. So obviously as one other reviewer pointed out, the problem is that once you get this album, you will want to become a Petty completist, and at that time this album will contain all redundant material. Whatever, you can leave it in the car then.Free Music Review: Journey Through Petty's Past
Hit: 5 Stars
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers have already released two hits collections, 1993's single disk Greatest Hits and 1995's six-cd box set Playback. While the Greatest Hits was a nice collection, it left out a number of the band's hits and the Playback collection was really for hardcore fans. This Anthology collection is the perfect medium between the two. It has just about every great Heartbreakers song with a couple of Petty's solo hits sprinkled in without the alternative takes and unreleased tracks that clutter up a box set.
