Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Angel Dream (She’s The One OST reissue)

lol, well this was good while it lasted.

 

Why stop at wiping, you can spray it with disinfectant!

 

Just got into Tom full-scale (after being a casual fan for years)... just bought Wildflowers & All The Rest, Finding Wildflowers and the Angel Dream CD.

Havin' a good old time with that time period! (I do own the regular STO soundtrack, it's 'eh' to me.)

 

Welcome aboard the Tom Petty train!

 

Lots of things will still work if you don’t maintain them properly. A tape will still play even if you never clean the heads. Your car will run if you don’t change the oil regularly. The list is endless. That doesn’t mean it’s good for their durability or performance.

 

Does anyone know if this is getting a UK release?

 

Move onto ‘Echo’ next!
And then Highway Companion and Mudcrutch!

 

Angel Dream?
The CD is readily available everywhere, the RSD version was available worldwide, the "regular" black vinyl LP I couldn't say, tbh.

 

Although I love Echo, and Mudcrutch, I would say Damn The Torpedoes should be explored before the other newer albums. I go back and forth on DTT and WF as my favorite album.

 

I'm sure @McCool and possibly @ryan de topanga will confirm for us, but I think everything that might've been in the vaults for the studio side of things for Torpedoes have been used up and released on the 2010 Deluxe Edition and An American Treasure, both collections of which did a great job of rounding those up. Full Moon Fever is another one where its outtakes are all pretty much available to the public (based on @McCool 's in-depth post and look at that LP for what was I believe its 30th anniversary).

 

Agreed. A few days ago I got the 5.1 mix of Damn the Torpedoes and loved how immersive it was. It even had a generous helping of bonus tracks in surround. Highly recommended if you have a surround system.

 

Where did you pick it up? I’ve been after it for a while, but prices on Discogs are crazy!!

 

I bought a surround system specifically so I could play that album, now I listen to all my music on it, whether they're in surround, stereo or even vintage mono. That mix is so great, Benmont has piano licks and fills that seem buried on the standard stereo mix ("Shadow Of A Doubt" is guilty of this).

 

It was a gift and I’m afraid to ask how much it was

 

Does Apple Music have the 5.1 of DTT built in now? Game changer if so.

 

Now that is something I would like to see!!
Mojo, Hypnotic Eye and Live Anthology too please. They’ve also been done in 5.1 and been out of print for years.

 

Got the others, but still kicking myself for procrastinating on picking up Mojo and missing out!

 

I think Hoodoo was recommending listening choices - not what should come next for archival releases. However, I would hope they go to some of the other albums that aren't the big three. An early Mudcrutch comp would be great, the Shelter years, expanded Long After Dark & Southern Accents, a barer bones Let Me Up, etc. The later albums are fine but I hope the early years get some love soon.

 

Different labels and contracts associated with the pre Wildflowers stuff might make it a bit more complicated. It’s seems Warner have a good thing going with the Petty estate- I hope MCA do as well!

 

Whoever gave it to you now only has one kidney.

 

I would love to see what could be done with a reimagining of Southern Accents although I accept we may have already heard most of what could be used to construct it. So it might be a hard sell.

I wonder if there is more mileage in a Let Me Up project which is both stripped down (production wise on some of the songs) and expanded (there was talk of it being a double, and I am sure Goodbye Little Rich Girl must have been recorded in the studio at this time which suggests there are definitely some unreleased gems). I’ve said it before, but I would love to hear more from this period that sounds like the title track, which always reminds me of how the band was playing live at this time, probably due in part to the Dylan experience. Cut loose, wild and free.

 

Let Me Up was the only record Tom ever walked away from, leaving it to be finished without his input. Adria has also expressed a desire to have it remixed and reimagined. So it could definitely be an upcoming project.

 

Correct, I was saying the new listener should try out DTT before straying into the newer music. I love Echo but it took me a long time to get into Mojo for some reason and I am a huge blues fan. Mudcrutch has been consistently great too. There is a lot of early Mudcrutch out there if know where to look for live petty stuff.

 

Not that I’ve seen. But what game exactly would it be changing?

 

That album cover bites.

That's the kind of amateurish thing I might expect a fan to to deposit on his burial site.
