Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers’ 'Live at the Fillmore' slated for November

Before starting the 20-show run at the Fillmore, Tom Petty outlined his plans in an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle:

“We’re musicians and we want to play. We’ve made so many records in the past five years, I think the best thing for us to do is just go out and play and it will lead us to our next place, wherever that may be.”

The album features more covers than originals, paying tribute to the artists and songs that shaped Petty’s love of music as he was growing up. Bob Dylan’s “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door,” The Rolling Stones’ “Time is On My Side,” The Kinks, Everly Brothers, Bill Withers, The Byrds, Chuck Berry and Booker T. & the M.G.’s are among the acts covered by Petty and the band.

The collection also features special performances with The Byrds’ Roger McGuinn and John Lee Hooker. 

“Playing the Fillmore in 1997 for a month was one of my favorite experiences as a musician in my whole life. The band was on fire and we changed the set list every night. The room and the crowd was spiritual... AND... we got to play with some amazing guests. I will always remember those nights with joy and inspiration,” said Mike Campbell.

At the final show, Petty noted as he took the stage: “We all feel this might be the highpoint of our time together as a group…It’s going to be hard to get us off this stage tonight.”

The live collection will be offered in a 3 LP version and a comprehensive box set featuring 58 songs and 14 spoken word tracks that highlight Petty’s connection with his band and his fans from the stage. The shows were taped during the last six nights of the band’s residency. The compilation was handled by producers Ryan Ulyate and Mike Campbell and executive producers Benmont Tench, Adria Petty, Annakim Petty and Dana Petty.

Tom Petty Radio (channel 31) on SiriusXM premiered the album announcement and new song with exclusive interviews with Heartbreakers Mike Campbell, Benmont Tench, Steve Ferrone, and Scott Thurston.

Live at the Fillmore (1997) will be released in various formats: 2 CD, 3 LP, 4 CD, 6 LP, 6 LP Uber Deluxe: Available exclusively on the Tom Petty webstore
