TP&HBs are a bunch of studs.....I appreciate all of their music, but I think their early stuff gets my nod.....That being said, here's my top 10:
1.Listen To Her Heart
2.American Girl
3.Here Comes My Girl
4.You Wreck Me
5.Free Fallin'
6.Stop Draggin My Heart Around
7.The Waiting
8.Room At The Top
9.Angel Dream
10.Jammin Me
And what is so great about these tunes, is they are all easy to play (rhythm anyway) and I can cover Petty's voice in most cases......Petty has a fantastic discography!!!

For some reason, I've been delving into the Great Wide Open album. I really like King's Highway and All the Wrong Reasons.

4. Even the Losers
5. Rebels

THE WAITING is still one of my favorites of all time!
Too many to mention after that really. Although I liked the cover of SOMETHING IN THE AIR too.

I keep wanting to hear more, but I listen to one or two and the urge is killed, I'll leave it at that.

Always love to sing "Letting you go" with another person.
"Woman in Love" was my first fav!

Not a huge fan either but I appreciate his early work a lot, and his work with the Wilburys.
