**Tom Petty** **LIST 25** Whats more significant, whats a bigger honor: being in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or being a member of the Traveling Wilburys? Surely if your in the latter your in the former but the reverse is not true, so I guess being a Traveling Wilbury is a higher honor. This rocker is both which puts him in very rare company. Just about every locality on the globe has its local favorite-son street poet. Very few rise to international fame; Bruce from NJ, Bob Seger from Detroit, John Mellencamp from the hearland, Billy Joel from the island, Chrissie from Cleveland, etc. The list is not long. Southern Florida has Jimmy Buffet, but make no mistake, northern Florida belongs to Thomas Earl Petty. With or without his Heartbreakers, Mr. Petty has woven ballads, screamers and social commentaries that clearly displayed a rare mastery of lyric and melody. Enjoy this list of people, places, things, images and quotations from the lyrics of Mr. Petty. Please limit your enthusiasm to no more than 4 each until we need cleanup hitters. The list is in chrono order from earliest to latest songs. UNSOLVED: Bonus Trivia: While not having had a stellar crossover career in acting, Tom did have a minor role in a mid-90s big budget bomb.
