If you have never listened much to Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, particularly circa 1979-1982, you are really, really missing something great. I hadn't and then I started watching this DVD of their videos while working out, and I was blown away. My favorite songs are, Insider, The Waiting, Change of Heart, A Woman in Love (it's not me), and Here Comes My Girl. The Insider had a great video of Tom Petty singing with Stevie Nicks, but they've removed it. Bummer. But of course there are so many more. Here are a couple of youtube links so you can make up your own mind!

Warning: these songs can become addictive!
