That was a good one greenmac, thanks! I always imagined I heard a Bob Dylan influence in Tom Petty...

You are welcome CA.... I like his music. Another favorite is The Traveling Wilburys, which he was part of.

Great video greenmac! A friend took me on the train ride that ensued after this just a week or two ago. It was kind of like a fabulous swan song for Roy Orbison. What an incredible trip "The Traveling Wilburys" was for all involved (including those of us who get to watch, years later).

Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and Jeff Lynne a handful of some of the greatest, ever. What a trip!!!

Don't mean to take away from Petty GM but any Dylan fan has got to hear this one.The 30th anniversary concert for Dylan is a fantastic concert with Petty the Pretenders,George Harrison ,Niel Young...everybody doing Dylan songs.Petty also did Rainy Day Women.
