It's not too late for the Tom Petty Festival, I hope ;D


I knew little Tom Petty, before the SC festival devoted to this singer

and so thank you to Hook, Greeny, Mike TC Elliott, Willie for making me discover him

in fact, I had heard him once in the concert for George Harrison (in while my guitar gently weeps)

... and I discovered this song on YT  Yer so bad

thank guys for listening

Great version - really well played backing and your vocals give it a Gallic charm which makes it your own.

thank you Alex, Pete, Hook...and others

I return to this cover for some technical details

as I did not have much time (cause departure on holiday !!   :), I m retired   ;))

violin and banjo are played by Wanda Vicket,  the acoustic bass is played by Dow Tomlin, two musicians from Nashville, always available with good humor in Band in a Box  ;D

I tried to make for the first time a very basic drum loop with my drum set Millenium SP 250

Banjo and violin are a little too back in the mix, I will remake when returning from vacation

the guitars I play are a Martin 000 and an Epiphone Lespaul plugged on a set of Guitar Rig

Excellent version and I like the interpretation by you!

Banjo and violin give tasty flavor to this.

I love the banjo and fiddle, it works great here. And I like how it shifts gear with the drums kicking in. This is a good cover with a unique twist in instrumentation. I'd never of thought of that, but this arrangement is great.
