In 2022, I found myself thinking about my favorite songwriter and rock musician of all time TOM PETTY around the five year mark of his passing. I was also contemplating what in the hell we had just gone through for the past 36 months on Planet Earth. On the one hand, I was happy that T.P. wasn't here to experience these most confusing and contentious times. On the other hand, I wondered what his response to those events might have been. I am sure he would have a made a defiant and determined statement that would have shown us a path to overcoming these unwanted and unprecedented circumstances. This is what I imagined he might say. Please BUY THE TRACK through the following links as that will help us record many more songs in the future - thanks!
