Tom Petty: Sounds That Really Touch You
Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers have a music style that is loaded with gigantic emotion. That's a super ingredient to have in one's music. The best thing about Tom Petty Songs is the fact they have a strong "hook." They really get you. Listened to two solid Tom Petty numbers today....'Free Falling' and "Don't Come Around Here Anymore.' On this so rainy, rugged weather day the giant sounds of Tom Petty and his people were just the right thing for me.

Nice Writing
THE GOOD terse writing of Ernest Hemingway is a real joy. He does not use too many adjectives. His 'Torrents' is a fine tome.

COOLING OFF WITH WEST COAST JAZZ is loads of fun. The temp is wildly hot now and so I listened to Art Pepper jazz, grand West Coast stuff....
I feel that the music of Tom Petty is so haunting and raw and somehow just "right" for it fits so well into the cubbyholes of one's brain (thank you, Napoleon) and in many ways the great sounds of Mr. Petty bring back tremendously fine memories to many of us.
ReplyDeleteThe intensity of Tom Petty musical sounds is amazing. So "real" and a good approach to musical creativity and a dash of tasty modernism.
