Tom Petty + The Heartbreakers - Live Anthlogy
Sunday, November 1, 2009 at 6:38PM
Rock - Culled from three decades of concerts and literally hundreds of hours of performance recordings, the extensive 48-track, 4-CD box set Live Anthology arriving November 24 from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers is a handpicked collection of the band's best songs mixed in with a few interesting rarities and covers. Petty and fellow Heartbreaker Mike Campbell worked with engineer Ryan Ulyate to comb through the many concerts in the Petty vault, looking for the best takes but careful not to mess with the original masters -- all of the songs are presented warts and all, with no "fixes" or overdubs.
Along with their own hits and originals, the Live Anthology also features some of their legendary covers including the Zombies’ “I Want You Back Again,” Van Morrison's "Into the Mystic", The Grateful Dead’s “Friend of the Devil,” Fleetwood Mac’s blues rave-up “Oh Well,” Booker T. and the MGs “Green Onions” and The Byrds “Ballad Of Easy Rider” among others. A special Deluxe Live Box, available exclusively at Best Buy, includes a fifth audio CD with 14 additional songs as well as two DVDs and a special Blu-Ray HD DVD that features all 62 tracks in super hi-fidelity sound.
