Good evening to you, and welcome to your Saturday edition of The Laptop Sessions! Tonight we (finally) return to our regularly scheduled…well, schedule…and we are now posting on nights we were originally scheduled to post.
That being said, sorry, no new band tonight.
Instead, it’s one we haven’t covered in some time – Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers! From their 2002 album “The Last DJ” is the title track from that album. I first heard this particular song via (who else) Jim, and I have always been a fan of Tom Petty’s work thanks to my brother. This is the 3rd song I have covered from this band.
Oddly enough, I think it’s a great cover, and I think the other two are good as well. It’s a great song to cover on acoustic since the driving track is acoustic on the song. You have to love the chorus and the message of the song as well.
I think the higher quality I get on my new laptop has been tremendous during the past 3 months, though. If you view the videos through Youtube, you will see the “watch in higher quality” button and that will make it sound even better!
Be sure to come back tomorrow for another awesome Jim Fusco acoustic cover song!
