Tom Petty, conhecido nos primeiros anos como Tommy, nasceu em Gainesville, Flórida e cresceu no nordeste de Gainesville. Já adolescente, músico amador, ele freqüentemente praticava em casa com amigos. Graduou-se na Gainesville High School em 1968. Petty não tinha inspirações musicais até que Elvis Presley se dirigiu à Ocala, Flórida, 25 milhas ao sul da cidade de Petty, para trabalhar no filme Follow That Dream. Petty foi para a cidade ver Elvis e se inspirou.

Tom Petty's cover of Thunderclap Newman's "something in the air". I learned this song a couple months ago and by listening to the album I know it is about 100% correct. Great song and easy. Enjoy
