So sorry to see him go - he gave us a whole treasure trove of great music. Thank you Tom!

Tom put out some incredible music over the years. 
One of his best rockin songs is Out In The Cold from Into The Great Wide Open.  IMHO

What is your favorite Tom song?

"Refugee" is tops

You're So Bad

Great mix of Dylan and McGuinn - Tom blended it all so nicely

I've gotta go with the song I referenced previously:  "Runnin' Down A Dream".  Guess I like the Petty-Lynne collaborations best...

Tom Petty, Jason Aldean and the Las vegas tragedy.  This could be the anthem song for this tragedy.
