A Place, But Unlike Other Places

Any of the three Tom Petty albums I mentioned here are more than adequate starting points. He's not a lot of music I'd consider bad, mostly it's all pretty good. He had a knack for writing great hooks in his music, at least to me he did. I think you'll enjoy a great deal of his music. He actually put out a new album of new material a few months back, I still need to give it a listen.

Hahaha, my mother wasn't a big fan of my taste in music as a kid, but she got over it. She still doesn't like what I listen to, it isn't her Gospel music.

I hear ya, my mother's a diehard bluegrass fan who hates metal and hip hop. Ironically, she helped get me into rock music through Bruce Springsteen.

The Boss is liked be loads of people, he's established himself as a household name, and I actually really respect the guy and what he's done is his career up to this point. He's had a long running career, and he's still going. My dad listened to him a lot. I fist pumped to Born In The USA.

Yup, same. Got to see him live a couple of years ago, and it was a definitive experience.
