@r-l there's a mythos built around Petty as a decent, regular guy divorced from the trappings of a rock star lifestyle.
Listen to the podcast Enzology and the Finn brothers are scathing of Petty. They toured North America together as an arrogant, conceited asshole. Totally the opposite of his popular image. Up himself, thought he was a superstar - this was in the early days before he did become a global superstar. Hated it if Enz gotr a decent reception, would sabotage their practice sessions, fiddle with their sound system after Enz had done their sound checks etc.
Only one side of the story but interesting nevertheless.
Haven't read thet Dog, but regardless Petty is someone I have always enjoyed listening to. Interesting you say about Enz, I read similar about another NZ group (name will come to one day) who had very similar things to say about being an opening act for the Kinks.

Yeah - they're good. Vibes of The Polyphonic Spree, but a bit more "accessible"/mainstream.
Saw them live in London - pretty fun show. -

I love a good cover, particularly enjoying Miley cyrus lately maybe because of the edge of midnight song. I love this song, my favourite version is by Aslan though but this is pretty good. Nice voice.
This was no where near as terrible as I assumed it would be.
Nowhere near as good as the original either.
While I'm in a reminiscing mood

@dan54 I must admit I don't know any of their other songs, or I don't think I do. Will check them out. Just a song I've always enjoyed when it pops up.
Couple of theirs I really enjoyed

@dan54 oh my 😍 love that second song!!
Me and you both mate, I think it exceptional. Actually the band put me in mind of Blerta, the NZ groupd from way back, noy sure if you old enough to remember them.
