Independent review

I have never been a big fan of Tom Petty, however, I always gave him his due. Especially for the fruitful participation in Travelin’ Wilburys. Literally, I would want to listen to a few of his albums in their entirety, and here his freshest product at the moment caught my eye. The only album in his career to reach #1 in the USA. And it is understandable why, especially considering his reputation as a hit-maker in the States. We are immediately set to the right wave by the sharp guitar sound in the album-opening American dream plan B. This is supposedly classic Petty, but all somehow thought-out, where there is almost nothing superfluous and everything is to the point. Excellent are Full grown boy, All you can carry, Power drunk. Sins of my youth – Paul McCartney pure and simple, perhaps he is even a little envious that this is not his track. U get me high – deservedly released as a single, like the first track of the album. And crowning everything, stunning Shadow people with a magnificent guitar theme. The album deserves the highest ratings. It is indeed – one of the best in the long career of the nasal American.
