Devastated about Tom Petty. I really feel like he's underrated by the wider populace.

Yeah, I'm surprised at the jokiness about it. Was a genuine legend. 'Full Moon Fever' might be one of the most perfect albums ever made and that's not even his famous one.

I watched Runnin Down A Dream last year and really enjoyed it. I'll admit I was never a huge fan but it was only because I never bothered to listen to anything other than the hits - which I generally liked. He came across as a good guy who didn't take any shit from the man and the world will always need more of those people.

Some of his songs and lyrics were quite bitter and scathing about him being wronged in some way, "Don't Come Around Here No More" "You Got Lucky" etc.

One of the good things about being a great songwriter like him is that you could get back at whoever wronged you by just writing a great song.about it.

Although he had a lot of mainstream hits he was still kind of a rebel, one of those guys that cared more about making great music than being a rock star.
