TPHB LIVE FILLMORE '97

On November 25th, Warner will officially release part of a legendary 20-show run at The Fillmore from Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers.  While parts of this run have circulated (some were even broadcast on FM radio), this will be the first time we've heard anything on the up-and-up.  The official press release follows:

TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS: LIVE AT THE FILLMORE (1997)
OUT NOVEMBER 25

THE LEGENDARY 20-SHOW RUN AT SAN FRANCISCO’S
FILLMORE WILL BE RELEASED IN A COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE PETTY ESTATE AND MIKE CAMPBELL
UNIQUE COLLECTION FEATURES COVERS, JAMS,
SPECIAL GUESTS AND DISTINCTIVE VERSIONS OF THEIR OWN HITS
THE FIRST LIVE COLLECTION UNVEILED IN OVER A DECADE


September 21, 2022—The long-awaited Live at the Fillmore (1997)—Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers’ first live album in 13 years—is due November 25 on Warner Records. The album will be available in various formats, see below for details and click HERE to pre-order.

Before starting the 20-show run at the Fillmore, Tom Petty outlined his plans in an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle: 
“We’re musicians and we want to play. We’ve made so many records in the past five years, I think the best thing for us to do is just go out and play and it will lead us to our next place, wherever that may be.”
The shows at the Fillmore ended up being some of the most joyful, honest, inspirational and prolific experiences of the band’s career, creating a unique bond between the group and their fans. This album features more covers than originals, paying tribute to the artists and songs that shaped Petty’s love of music as he was growing up—before he became a legendary songwriter and performer in his own right. Highlights include Bob Dylan’s “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door,” J.J. Cale’s “Crazy Mama,” The Rolling Stones’ “Time is On My Side” and more from The Kinks, Everly Brothers, Bill Withers, The Byrds, Chuck Berry and Booker T. & the M.G.’s. The collection also features special performances with The Byrds’ front man Roger McGuinn and blues legend John Lee Hooker. Other standouts include extended versions of original tracks “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” and “It’s Good To Be King.”
“Playing the Fillmore in 1997 for a month was one of my favorite experiences as a musician in my whole life. The band was on fire and we changed the set list every night. The room and the crowd was spiritual... AND... we got to play with some amazing guests. I will always remember those nights with joy and inspiration.”—Mike Campbell
The Fillmore was a laboratory for the band. The captivating sold out performances were such a hit, the Heartbreakers were even nicknamed the “Fillmore House Band.” At the final show, Petty noted as he took the stage:
“We all feel this might be the highpoint of our time together as a group… It’s going to be hard to get us off this stage tonight.”
The record will be offered in a 3 LP version simulating one of the concerts and a comprehensive box set featuring 58 songs and 14 humorous spoken word tracks that highlight Petty’s connection with his band and his fans from the stage. The shows were taped during the last six nights of the band’s historic residency. The compilation was meticulously curated by producers Ryan Ulyate and Mike Campbell and executive producers Benmont Tench, Adria Petty, Annakim Petty and Dana Petty.
Read Joel Selvin’s liner notes HERE.
Tom Petty Radio (channel 31) on SiriusXM premiered the album announcement and new song earlier today, along with exclusive interviews with Heartbreakers Mike Campbell, Benmont Tench, Steve Ferrone, and Scott Thurston.

ROCKYGRASS 50th

The 50th anniversary of the Rockygrass festival in Lyons, CO is now in the history books.  Originally called the Rocky Mountain Bluegrass Festival, this joint is now run by the same folks who bring us the more-gargantuan Telluride Bluegrass Festival, whose 50th anniversary will be in 2023.

There were plenty of memorable moments this year, including the return of Nederland, CO's Yonder Mountain String Band to the stage which helped bring them notoriety two decades ago.  Soldiering on without the late Jeff Austin, Yonder is definitely reclaiming their groove, finding new life in the oldest tunes in their catalog.  Fiddle player Allie Kral steered the boys through a show-stopping rendition of "Son of a Preacher Man." <Kral has since announced her departure from the band>  Bassist Ben Kaufmann expressed the band's reluctance to follow Chris Thile's Punch Brothers supergroup burning it down, but I'd say they needn't have worried -- Colorado loves them some hometown heroes.

Newgrass titan Sam Bush, as we might have expected, closed out day two's main stage antics with what Rockygrass regulars call the "thunder jam," involving just about everyone available.  By one camper's account, there were several rows of performers stacked as deep as the stage would allow, rotating in almost-military precision through microphone proximity.  Earlier that day, Steep Canyon Rangers took to the familiar stage (having won the Battle of the Bands at Rockygrass in 2001) for an excellent set which was no doubt bittersweet since it was co-founder Woody Platt's penultimate show with SCR.

Though it had threatened to rain all weekend, all we actually got hit with were sprinkles.  That is, until day three during Béla Fleck's early-afternoon revival of "Uncommon Ritual" with Mike Marshall and Edgar Meyer (from 1997).  The deluge was short-lived and welcome, and the Uncommon Ritual played right on through.  

The legendary Del McCoury led his band through the usual foot-stompin' round of numbers.  Though he is possibly the most aged of the performers, he still does it with precision and panache; how he's consistently able to do it without flattening his pompadour and soaking through his three-piece suit, I'll never know.

Closing the weekend was a Colorado legend: Hot Rize, with all living members present and accounted for, and the late Charles Sawtelle being more-than-ably replaced by Bryan Sutton.  Their set was preceded by a surprise induction into the Colorado Music Hall of Fame.  Well, it was a surprise to us, not necessarily the band.  It would take a better bluegrass/newgrass scholar than me to unravel which songs were traditionals and which were originals, but the tunes (even the slow ones) came fast and furious with nary a misstep, especially considering Hot Rize's scarcity on stage over the last three decades or so.  They slowly added guest players until it became an all-star jam by the end, and then it was over.  The festival, and Hot Rize.  Nick Forster told me afterward that it was always going to be Hot Rize's last performance, just not announced as such.  It was nevertheless impressive icing on the festival's 50th birthday cake.
