I keep mentioning my non-ironic fondness for Tom Petty and my love of moody, Americana-ish music, so this live Heartbreakers cover by The Black Heart Procession (which my friend Robert sent me) is, of course, right up my alley. I always think the best covers are ones that don't seem like obvious choices at first, but end up sound head-slappingly brilliant once the artist has reinterpreted them, and I think this song is a great example. Who would have thought the 80s synth chords of Petty's original would translate so well to Black Heart Procession's brooding piano?
i still don't understand why you even have to preface this as "non-ironic" fondness. tom petty is fantastic and i don't care who knows it.
Couldn't agree more on this one, Tom Petty's works are simply breathtaking.
You’ve hit the ball out the park! Icneridlbe!
