With Tom Petty he achived massive success in his homeland from the late 70s onwards, but it wasnt until the late 80s that he was getting hits in the UK. What I like aboyut Tom Petty was that he played the game with MTV as most of his 80s video's testify, but he also remained part of the live scene. I remember seeing a video performance of Tom Petty and it was like watching a different artist.
Tom Petty and the heartbreakers have continued to release records over the last two decades, not meeting the heights of their 70s and 80s output but keeping their fan base and releasing radio unfriendly material.
Tom Petty remain in the UK a typical US band which is unfair as they have released so many good albums over the years
