I would have to say that other that his Greatest Hits cd the best Tom Petty cd that i have heard is Full Moon Fever. It has alot of amazing songs like: Free Fallin', I Won't Back Down, A Face In The Crowd, and many more. It is an amazing cd, he has alot of amazing cd's, but i think that this cd is the best of his cd's, but the greatest hits cd tops this one.

I either gotta go with You're Gonna Get It or Damn The Torpedoes.

Greatest hits is just a compilation, but a good one at that.

I'd have to say "Damn The Torpedoes" or "Long After Dark"

While the world wages war
It gets harder to see
Who your friends really are (George Harrison)

I think Long After Dark is their best. I love it.

~~What would I give, to start all over again
To clean up my mistakes

Stand in the moonlight, stand under heaven
Wait for an answer, hold out forever
But don't be afraid anymore
It's only a brkoen heart~

This is really tough, but... for me, I am going to go with "Damn The Torpedoes."

"If talking were aerobic, I'd be the thinnest person in the world." ~Carrie Fisher

I agree Patty, it is tough! I would have to say I gravitate more to Full Moon Fever-I love Face in the Crowd. Also because of where I was in my life when the album came out, so I guess you could say for sentimental reasons, too.

I'd nominate Echo.Room At The Top is a great opener,Free Girl Now is a rocking single and M Mike Cambell even gets a turn singing!

I'm with refugee on this one Damn the Torpedoes and You're Gonna Get It are great.

This is tough for me also, but i'm going to go with Damn the Torpedos thats what started it all for me. then my 2nd favorite it echo and then my 3rd is wildflowers and 4th is the last dj.

It's a tie between Echo and Wildflowers, with Damn the Torpedoes being a close second.

I'm glad to hear people mentioning You're Gonna Get it, though. It's definitely a very underrated album.

"If you can't change the world, maybe you should just change yourself."

Well Damn The Torpedoes is my favorite .It is definitely loaded and I was in Grade 9 when it came out so it (and Hard Promises) was the soundtrack to High School.
At the same time I really like every album he has put out ..Let Me Up is a barn burner and is probably my second favorite .
Long After Dark is definitely the most underrated!!!

"Long After Dark" definitely is underrated, although personally I think "You're Gonna Get It!" is their most underrated work.

"If you can't change the world, maybe you should just change yourself."

hm.......

would have to say my top 3 would be:

1. Hard Promises
2. Long After Dark
3. You're Gonna Get It
