New record is a grower, but great. Toss off "Jack" and you've got one solid listen all the way through.

Bought
Highway Companion
today.? The album is smooth with a capital SMOOTH.?
Seriously though it is really good, such a chilled out listen, so relaxing.? True it's not going to blow minds and blast him to the top of the charts but it's not about that, it's about putting out a good quality album.?
Flirting With Time
&
Night Driver
are my favourite tracks but they are all fairly decent, perfect listening for a long car journey or when your chilling in the sun, definately, smooth

I love them!! One of my favourites of all time. Makes great driving music.
That's why I can't listen to the latest Chilli's album. I can't believe they got away with ripping off his song so fuckin badly.

WARNER BROS. RECORDS TO RELEASE SPECIAL EDITION OF TOM PETTY?S HIGHWAY COMPANION ON JUNE 5TH
New Version of Legend's Third Solo Album Is Packaged as Leatherette-Bound Book and Features Four Bonus Tracks
Burbank, CA ? A special edition of Tom Petty's Highway Companion, the third recording in a trilogy of solo albums that includes Full Moon Fever and Wildflowers, will be released by Warner Bros. Records on June 5th. Long celebrated as a major American voice, Petty has used his solo work as a vehicle for his most personal songwriting. Highway Companion, described by The Washington Post as "his best disc in years," takes the striking intimacy of his earlier solo efforts to even greater heights.
The new version of Highway Companion, targeted to retail outlets around Father's Day, will be a leatherette-bound book that includes two postcards and four previously unreleased bonus tracks: two songs, "Home" and "Around the Roses," previously recorded for Highway Companion and Petty's personal demo versions of Highway Companion tracks "Big Weekend" and "This Old Town."
The release of the special edition coincides with the reissues on June 12 of the two studio albums from all-star band the Traveling Wilburys, of which Petty was a member along with Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Roy Orbison, and Jeff Lynne. Traveling Wilburys Volume 1 and Traveling Wilburys Volume 3 will be available together in one package with bonus tracks and a DVD of rare footage, as a deluxe linen-bound edition, a vinyl set and a digital bundle.
Originally released on July 25th, 2006, Highway Companion debuted at Number 4 on Billboard's Top 200 album chart, selling 112,000 copies its first week. It was produced by Jeff Lynne, who also produced Petty's beloved 1989 multi-platinum solo album, Full Moon Fever and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' 1991 album Into the Great Wide Open. The spare, lyrically introspective Highway Companion was described by The Detroit Free Press as "an album of subtle treasures", , Rolling Stone, recognizing the raw emotional strength of Highway Companion, declared it "a classic."
Highway Companion was nominated for a Grammy Award for "Best Rock Album," while its first single, "Saving Grace," was nominated for "Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance." Those honors were Petty's 17th and 18th Grammy nods in an illustrious career that has seen the Florida-born singer-songwriter sell more than 50 million albums over the past 30 years. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002.
The track-listing for the special edition of Highway Companion is as follows:
"Saving Grace"
"Square One"
"Flirting With Time"
"Down South"
"Jack"
"Turn This Car Around"
"Big Weekend"
"Night Driver"
"Damaged By Love"
"This Old Town"
"Ankle Deep"
"The Golden Rose"
"Home"
"Around the Roses"
"Big Weekend" (demo version)
"This Old Town" (demo version)

Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers to perform during halftime of Super Bowl
NEW YORK (AP) ? Rock 'n' rollers Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers will perform during halftime of the Super Bowl on Feb. 3 at the University of Phoenix Stadium.
The NFL made the announcement Sunday.
The group has sold more than 50 million records since releasing its debut album in 1976. Its hits include "Free Fallin'," "Breakdown," "Refugee," "I Won't Back Down," "Don't Come Around Here No More," "You Don't Know How It Feels," and "Runnin' Down A Dream."
Petty, an 18-time Grammy nominee with one of rock 'n' roll's most distinctive voices, has also done solo work and was a founding member of The Traveling Wilburys, playing alongside George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison and Jeff Lynne.
Recent Super Bowl halftime acts include the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, and Prince. Nearly 140 million TV viewers in the United States watched Prince last year.

I loved their performance as well! Loved the Flying V piercing the heart at the beginning!
Also, because of his superb performance, two 15 year olds at the party were singing Free Fallin' the rest of the time and made plans to go to two shows.

They should
absolutely
retire the whole Super Bowl haftime "concert" in it's entirety.
It's

What? You mean the sudden on-rush of 20-somethings, waving their hands in the air and correctly mouthing one out of every 26 words strikes you as "fake"?

most fake, contrived, plastique set up I may have ever witnessed.
What? You mean the sudden on-rush of 20-somethings, waving their hands in the air and correctly mouthing one out of every 26 words strikes you as "fake"?

Good recommendations, his Greatest Hits is superb and one of the few best of collections which does the artist justice, acts as a great starter and leaves newcomers wanting more.....

Tom Petty's Mudcrutch tours behind debut album
Mudcrutch, featuring Tom Petty and two members of The Heartbreakers, hits the road in April behind the band's first ever full-length album.
The group--which features Petty, Heartbreakers Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench, and original Mudcrutch members Tom Leadon and Randall Marsh--kicks off the run April 12 in Malibu, CA, as part of a benefit bill for The Midnight Mission homeless shelter in downtown Los Angeles. The band has lined up 11 dates, all of them in California. The full schedule is below.
Pre-sale tickets are available beginning tomorrow (3/21) for members of the Highway Companion Club, Petty's online fan club. Check the club's website for more information.
Mudcrutch is picking up where it left off more than 30 years ago, when Petty and guitarist Tom Leadon formed a new act in 1970 following their exit from another band, The Epics. Guitarist Campbell and drummer Marsh joined soon after, and keyboardist Tench signed on in 1973.
Mudcrutch released a pair of singles in 1973 and 1975, respectively, but never recorded a full album. Last August, according to an article in Nashville's Tennessean newspaper, Petty provided the impetus for the band to reunite and head back into the recording studio.
"It was just entirely unexpected," Leadon, now a Nashville-based guitar instructor, told the paper. "It was like a dream, the whole thing. Tom couldn't have been nicer. It was great to hang out with him again."
The group's self-titled debut, containing 14 tracks, will hit stores April 29.
April 2008
12 - Malibu, CA - Malibu Performing Arts Center
14 - Santa Cruz, CA - Santa Cruz Civic Auditorium
16, 17 - San Francisco, CA - Fillmore
19- Santa Barbara, CA - Arlington Theatre
20- Venture, CA - Ventura Theater
22- Alpine, CA - Concerts in The Park
25, 26, 28, 29- West Hollywood, CA - Troubadour

not sure if anyone cares... but the new Mudcrutch cd is great.
Nothing mind blowing, which is what I love, but it's a good rock record.
They have a awesome version of "Shady Grove".
It debuted at #8 on the charts!

Saw 'em last night in Indy.

1. You Wreck Me
2. Listen to Her Heart
3. I Won't Back Down
4. Even the Losers
5. Free Fallin'
6. Mary Jane's Last Dance
7. Sweet William
8. End of the Line
9. Can't Find My Way Home
10. Gimme Some Lovin'
11. Saving Grace

17. Refugee
Encore
18. Runnin' Down a Dream

Pretty damned good show, if you ask me. I figured "Free Fallin'" as classic encore material (or a late, main set highlight). The fact that he played it five songs in shows how deep his catalog goes.

I saw Tom and the boys a few weeks back in Hartford. They always put on a good show. I assume, "Gimme Some Lovin" was done with Steve Winwood? We didn't get that treat.

I got the setlist from an online article, and I'm pretty sure it's at least partially incorrect, as I distinctly remember Steve Winwood doing "Gimme Some Lovin'" in his OWN set.
EDIT: OK...I think I was confused because of the wording in the article...it was a setlist from Chicago, the night before my show. I'll look for a more accurate setlist.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers have unveiled a lengthy US arena tour as the classic rockers anticipate the forthcoming release of "Mojo," their first studio effort in eight years.

I got the heads up on the tour from a friend of mine earlier today. A crew of us will be heading to the Hartford show in August. And we get Crosby, Stills, and Nash too, which is a nice added bonus.
