Yes, those were the days!
And speaking of the Clash, I think “London Calling” is no. 8 in the RS top 500 albums list.
Sex Pistols, Clash... pistols 76. Clash 78-79 London Calling, all of us hated Combat Rock. Petty outlasted all of them and still same age range to a delta of plus minus 5 years.
Great bands late 70s early 80s; Petty, U2, amazing to think about Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel and Genesis, Styx, Prince and Madonna.
Petty outlived everybody above excluding U2 imho.
Stalwart.
