    R.I.P. Tom Petty

    I usually don`t give two you know whats about celebrities, but Petty passing is a real bummer. Probably in my top 3 favorite musicians of all time. He was on my short lost of people I wanted to see in concert

    One of my favorite musicians too. I was lucky enough to see him in concert back in the 90`s. Great show.

    When I heard two of his songs in a row on the radio yesterday - I knew something was up.

    Another musician whose songs hold great memories for me - gone. Very sad.

    Free Fallin` has to be one of the best "cruising" songs ever.

    "Learning to fly" is one of my all time favorite songs. Free Fallin` is right up there.

    Really liked the duet he sang with Stevie Nicks entitled "Stop Draggin` My Heart Around" (Yes, there is a certain irony to state that title and it appears to be in (very) poor taste at this time, come to think of it now. Hope his fan base/well-wishers are not offended.)

    It did not seem to be the normal rock star type. He seemed to like the music.

    He made a lot of good songs. I heard he had just finished a tour. Must have put him over the edge He will be missed. Stop dragging my heart around is a great song

    His passing had me thinking how I generally prefer many of his less commonly played songs. Like (thinking of duets-with-Stevie Nicks) "Insider" instead of "Stop Draggin`.." With a catalog of wonders as extensive as his, there`s something great for most anybody and I wish DJs would play stuff other than his biggest hits now and then.

    Heh heh, nice to see that his passing warranted TWO threads here

    I always liked the story of how he ended up playing with The Traveling Wilburys. (Their Vol. 1 is high on my short-list.)

    Talk about an All Star group of musicians. I`ll need to read up on how Petty joined.
