If you keep company with George Harrison and Bob Dylan you have to have something special going on.

The official Tom Petty web site says RIP Tom Petty. So sad. Loved listening to him on Sirius. Such a knowledgeable musician and so talented.

Tom Petty was an excellent guitar player as well as a creative singer. I am saddened by his loss.

He was one hell of a song writer as well. Refused to allow his music to be used as advertisements etc. A principled man if ever there was. Unfortunately I started listening to him late in the game but definitely enjoyed him for the years I listened. Listened on Sirius last night while driving home from work.
