"You can stand me up at the gates of hell, but I Won't Back Down" in memorial to Steve's father who recently passed away, we are reviewing a cassette from his collection that was formative to his musical upbringing, FULL MOON FEVER (1989) by TOM PETTY

Send us a text

Full Moon Fever is the debut solo studio album by American musician Tom Petty, released on April 24, 1989, by MCA Records. It features contributions from members of his band the Heartbreakers, notably Mike Campbell, as well as Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison(who died prior to its release), and George Harrison, Petty's bandmates in the Traveling Wilburys.[3][2] The record showcases Petty exploring his musical roots with nods to his influences.[4] The songwriting primarily consists of collaborations between Petty and Lynne, who was also a producer on the album. MCA Records under Irving Azoff originally refused to issue the album, believing it did not contain any hits. Azoff resigned within a few months and, with new label management reviewing the album positively, they decided to release it.
