Tom Petty has long been seen as one of the great songwriters of American rock n roll, as well as one of the key standard bearers of integrity in the music business. Conversations With Tom Petty is the first authorised book to focus solely on the life and work of the man responsible for some of the most memorable rock anthems of our generation, including: American Girl, Breakdown, Refugee, The Waiting, Don't Come Around Here No More, I Won't Back Down, Free Fallin', Runnin Down a Dream, You Don't Know How It Feels, Mary Jane's Last Dance, and many others.
Tom and Paul conducted a series of in-depth discussions about Tom's career, with special focus on his song writing. The conversations are reprinted here with little or no editorial comment and represent a unique perspective on Tom's entire career.
