『ECHO』 詳報

This comes from the Wall of Sound website:

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers fans going through withdrawal since 1996’s She’s the One soundtrack can start salivating. Sources say Echo is very much a full-band affair and not a solo Petty effort. Mike Campbell, specifically, is singled out for his outstanding guitar work across the album, which has drawn comparisons in tone to 1987’s Let Me Up I’ve Had Enough perhaps the least commercially successful album in the Petty oeuvre.

The title track is described as the darkest on the album, the chorus reportedly intoning, “It’s the same, sad echo when you lie/It’s the same, sad echo when you try/To be clear/It’s same as the same, sad echo/Around here.” Other lyrics are just as bleak: “Guess who left me here for dead/My friends, my good friends/And it’s time I stopped kidding myself” (“I Don’t Belong”) and “You don’t even know what you got/Until it’s walking away/You don’t even know what you had/Until it laughs in your face”(“For Me”). Rick Rubin, Mike Campbell, and Petty himself are once again in the producer’s seat.

Tentative Track List

  1. Free Girl Now
  2. Sweet William
  3. Echo
  4. Billy the Kid
  5. A Room at the Top of the World
  6. Counting on You
  7. I Don’t Belong
  8. Rhino Skin
  9. Lonesome Sundown
  10. For Me
  11. About to Give Out

TP&HB、再びサン・フランシスコのフィルモアに出演か???

The San Francisco Chronicle reported in their online issue that Tom Petty is going to play the Fillmore again. “Tom Petty&the Heartbreakers are set for another Fillmore residency, penciled in at press time for March 7 – 17.”

これは 1/31付 San Francisco Chronicle がレポートしたもの。ただし、まだどこからも正式な発表はありません。気になることに the Fillmore のHP のカレンダーを見ると、3/7-17までがポッカリと空いているのです。さて、どうなるのでしょうか?1997年の歴史的な20回公演の再現か… とファンの間では期待が高まっています。
