Free fallen aged 66.
There is a death thread bazza.
One of my all time favourites… was my first proper gig back in 1987 when he first supported and was Dylan’s backing band… got me into playing Rickenbackers and IMHO always got less accalim than he deserved… brilliant song writer and all round decent bloke…
Loved Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Very under rated. RIP
Tom Petty was the Steven Davis of music
Talented but dull as fuck?
Stevie Nicks wanted to join the Heartbreakers so he can’t have been that dull!
I was only replying to the Steve Davis bit.
Saying that, Stevie Nicks would’ve livened them up a bit
Still have the Tom Petty Songbook - Guitar Tab, from our ill-fated covers band days.
Loved a lot of his output…RIP.
Hold the bus!!!
He ain’t dead.
Yet.
Has he died yet?
Beeb says yes.
Massive heart attack
Yep, confirmed.
