I actually knew Schon was a former member but I didn't know there were others too.

I used to play that song with a friend of mine, Mike Doogan from the Doogan Bros Band who just passed recently, and never heard the original until quite a few years later after playing it numerous times. We did it quite differently but kept the same vibe, and still to this day is one of my favorite songs to play. Actually... I might be able to find a recording of it.
I had Seger in mind for my vote, but the sheer number of hits that Petty churned out, along with his quirky Dylan-esque style tipped the scales.
