In my opinion, this was one of the signature TP &the HB's songs that shot this band into rock n roll stardom. The bass riff is just bad ass. Match that up with Tom's phenomenal vocals and Mike's guitar jam, and WOW! No other rock band had the Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers sound. This is what a super group truly sounds like. The world of rock music will never be the same without Mr Tom Petty in it. Every member of this band is exceptional. And together they were the sound that moved generations back then and will for eternity.
Thank you very much 🌷🥀 🌹,l will miss you always.Tom is the greatest artist 💞 ever.You will always be the best looking singer ever. I've been the fool too many times.
Everything about this performance is flawless. I like it better than the studio version because it seems to have more raw emotion. Credit to the people who recorded and mixed too.Tom you were undeniable legendary music genius. We forever miss you !!!
Tom Petty was my very first concert. He opened for the Doobie Brothers. Only knew one of his songs at the time. When he played this song he instantly became my favorite artist. To this day he still is. RIP Tom!
"Fooled Again" So love his performance, it "ROCKS", very passionate, so good I felt the pain! For me this band has always been powerful, from the 70's and to this very day. Beautiful band , excellent musicians, "strong and holding" New album, "HYPNOTIC EYE" April, 2014, check it out, you'll fall in love with this album, I did.
It's one of my favorites too, but the one where he is second to Stevie Nicks' "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around!" (it's really her song) is killer! They were very close friends for a long time, and some people think they were even lovers, but no real evidence of that. In any case, what the hell, you can have too many lovers but never too many friends. RIP, Tom, I will never forget your first album which I still have.
@@rwhaller42, not to be argumentative, but actually Stop Dragging My Heart Around is not "really her(Stevie Nicks) song". Tom Petty & Mike Cambell wrote that song as a TP & HB tune, but their producer got Stevie to sing on it, and it ended up on her debut solo album with Tom & (most of) the Heartbreakers playing on the track, and of course Tom sang on it with her.
Wow just wow. All of you haters go and listen to Justin Bieber. This is REAL music. Tom fought hard and won against the music industry. If you don't like try and listen to The Traveling Wilburys. Tom had a wide range of music. We the fans of real music will miss him and his genius.
Really cool song I wore the needle out on the record player with this back in the day FANTASTIC to hear this again no muso's like the ones from this era
As Tom tells the story, Ron had eaten a chunk of hash coming through customs from Amsterdam. This show was a few hours later. Sounds like he handled it just fine.
Mike is one of the great ones I think. He doesn't get the credit he deserves. Check out his solos on "They Call Me the Breeze" which you can find here.
Great Song. As good as the b-side of "anything that's rock'n'roll". Amazingly, 30 years have passed and this has just been added - where's the rest of the gig?. TP's guitar sounds heavy, and he used to be such an expressive singer. Thanks.
I'm a big fan of TP, and this was the song that turned me onto him. I said 'used to be' because his old stuff has a magical quality that has not been present since 'Full Moon Fever'. 'Wild Flowers' was very disappointing and he doesn't seem to cut it anymore. But he used to be really brilliant and this is more than most of us will ever do. I appreciate your question.
I PLAYED THIS TO THE FOOLS OF MY OWN BAND ON A STREET IN BERLIN AT NIGHT IN DECEMBER 1982....TO ACTUALLY LET THEM FEEL + KNOW WHAT FOOLS THEY WERE I REPEATED THE SONG + "STRANGERED IN THE NIGHT" ON MY GHETTOBLASTER SEVERAL TIMES. ONE OF THE TWO OTHERS IN THIS BAND HAD ACTUALLY TRICKED ME TO COME TO A CELLAR FOR REHEARSALS WHERE MINUS CELSIUS DEGREES WERE DOMINATING + I FROZE MY ASS OFF INSTEAD OF BEING ABLE TO REHEARSE. I THOUGHT TO MYSELF. WHAT KIND OF FOOÖS OR SADISTS ARE THEY ACTUALLY TO UNDERTAKE THIS MAD FREEZE TO HELL "REHEARSAL" TOUR IN A VERY COLD NIGHT IN BERLIN?? THE CELLAR WASN'T ANYWHERE CLOSE TO MY DISTRICT IN THE VERY WEST OF BERLIN; - IT WAS IN IN ONE OF THE DAMN BERLIN WALL DISTRICTS - KREUZBERG - A DISTRICT WITHOUT MUCH CHARM - ACCENTUATED BY THE DAMN WALL ALMOST EVERYWHERE IN 1982. WHEN WE GERMANS WATCH THE MAD POLITICAL RIGHT-WING VOTING BEHAVIOR AT STATE ELECTIONS IN THE EAST, MANY OF US ALSO WISH THAT THE EAST WOUKD HAVE NEVER BEEN REUNITED WITH WEST-GERMANY - LOTS OF THE FORMER COMMUNIST EAST IS A STUPID ALWAYS YAMMERING PROVINCIAL ACCUMULATION OF SO-CALLED STATES WHICH HAVE IN REALITY TOO LITTLE INHABITANTS TO SURVIVE OR TOO MUCH OF THE DAMN EAST-GERMAN ABSURD PROVINCIALISM....MORE THAN THREE MILLION GERMAN FORMER INHABITANTS "FLED" AFTER THE FALL OF THE WALL TO THE WEST AFTER 1990: i CAN FULLY UNDERSTAND THE MOTIVATIONS OF THE EAST-GERMANS "FLEEING" TO WEST-GERMANY AFTER 1990, BERLIN AS CAPITAL IN THIS EASTERN MESS IS NOT AN EXCUSE FOR A STILL EXISTING + STILL YAMMERING PROVINCIAL EAST POPULATION IN GERMANY; i WONDER IF OUR WESTERN ECONOMY HAS SPOILED THEM TOO MUCH IN THE LAST 30 YEARS + THEY SECRETLY YEARN FOR SOCIALISM/COMMUNISM IN ITS OLD STALINIST SHAPE AGAIN WITH NEONAZIS INSTEAD - IN THE SHAPE OF THE STUPID AFD....I WISH THEM "GOOD APPETITE" WITH THAT MEAL OF HORROE !
awesome song,one of his best. but strangered in the night is right before this one on the album and it's just as classic..cant find it on here though..it's a shame.
