Uzbudljiv i intiman prikaz života muzičke legende Toma Petija, od strane vrhunskog pisca i muzičara koji je bio na turneji sa Petijem.

Niko osim Vorena Zejnsa, rokera, pisca i prijatelja, nije mogao da napiše knjigu o Tomu Petiju koja je tako iskrena i provokativna na Petijevu muziku i izuzetnu istoriju rokenrola koju su on i njegov bend pomogli da napišu.

Rođen u Gejnsvilu, na Floridi Tom Peti je bio klinac koji nije mnogo obećavao. Rokenrol je odlučio drugačije. Od upoznavanja Elvisa, do gledanja Bitlsa na Edu Salivanu, do produkcije Del Šenona, podrške Bobu Dilanu, sastavljanja benda sa Džordžom Harisonom, Dilanom, Rojem Orbisonom i Džefom Linom, snimanja ploča sa Džonijem Kešom i slanja više od deset svojih proslavljenih snimaka visoko na top listama. Poslednjih godina života, Peti, poznat po svom povučenom stilu, delio je sa Vorenom Zejnsom svoje uvide i argumente, svoje tuge i trajne ambicije, kao i detalje svog života na sceni i van nje.

Ovo je knjiga za one koji znaju i vole pesme, od `American Girl` i `Refugee` do `Free Fallin" i `Mari Jane`s Last Dance`, kao i za one koji žele da vide eru klasičnog rokenrola oličenu u jednoj izuzetnoj priči jednog čoveka. Mračan i misteriozan, Peti je uspeo da se vrati, iznova i iznova, pokazujući nam šta muzika može i kuda nas može odvesti.

Tom Petty - The Biography, Warren Zanes

The New York Times Bestseller

*One of Rolling Stone`s 10 Best Music Books of 2015*

An exhilarating and intimate account of the life of music legend Tom Petty, by an accomplished writer and musician who toured with Petty.

No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty`s music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write.

Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise. From meeting Elvis, to seeing the Beatles on Ed Sullivan, to producing Del Shannon, backing Bob Dylan, putting together a band with George Harrison, Dylan, Roy Orbison, and Jeff Lynne, making records with Johnny Cash, and sending well more than a dozen of his own celebrated recordings high onto the charts, Tom Petty`s story has all the drama of a rock and roll epic. In his last years, Petty, known for his reclusive style, shared with Warren Zanes his insights and arguments, his regrets and lasting ambitions, and the details of his life on and off the stage.

This is a book for those who know and love the songs, from `American Girl` and `Refugee` to `Free Fallin" and `Mary Jane`s Last Dance,` and for those who want to see the classic rock and roll era embodied in one man`s remarkable story. Dark and mysterious, Petty managed to come back, again and again, showing us what the music can do and where it can take us.
