Petty for your thoughts
For those of us still dreaming of being rock stars, journalist Paul Zollo has provided a detailed and entertaining guidebook in Conversations with Tom Petty. Written in Q&A format, Petty offers telling insights about holding his band together for more than three decades; jamming with his music idols Dylan, Orbison, and Beatle George; and how hits like "Breakdown" and "Free Fallin'" were born. Rock on, Tom.
