Classic Albums Live - Tom Petty

Damn The Torpedoes

Event Details

We all miss Tom

but a few years from now,

we’re going to miss him even more.

Tom had the touch

the songwriters’s touch

it’s the craft of writing a song

that gets the whole world singing along

the current pop songs - I doubt they’ll stand the test of time

but we’ll be hearing ‘refugee’ forever

It’s been 40 years since ‘Damn the Torpedoes’ was released

the sound of that album reminds me of the 70s

it was a time when punk, disco and new waver were all exploding

but ol’ Tom stayed the course and wrote a perfect rock album

When we started learning this album

we were struck with how beautiful

the guitars sounded

really silky and graceful

we started out with 2 guitarists

and then we added 2 more

it’s the sound of 4 guitars that allows the music to soar

We’re going to pay this album the respect it deserves

note for note - cut for cut

that’s all you need
