The Good
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers -- The "Dragnet" band of rock and roll -- just the facts ma'am, just the facts. But they're presented well, and with 1982's "Long After Dark," this band has again provided me with an album that I can actually play through on both sides. Petty's music is not fancy, but it's good, basic, straight ahead rock and roll. I love these guys.
