Very sorry to hear of Tom Petty's passing. Tom along with other artists defined the music of the 80's and beyond. His voice and musical style was instantly identifiable. The music recorded then sounds as fresh and relevant as it did when first recorded. Tom never sought the limelight as the music was more important to him.

Tom Petty said the best times he had as a musician were with the Traveling Wilburys. The group had with such talent as Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan, Jeff Lynn and George Harrison in addition to himself. Tom was too young to pass but then so were other artists that have passed far too soon.


Rest in peace Tom and thanks for stopping by and leaving some great music.

Have to agree with you about the Traveling Wilburys, Tom and the rest of the guys were doing it because of their love of music, didn't do it to make money or worry about if the album made it to #1, they just loved doing it! You can see in the videos how much fun they had in being together too!

Tom Petty was one of the greatest. I'm kicking myself for not seeing him in concert when I've had the chance.
