CommentsRecorded at Sound City, Van Nuys, CA and Cherokee Studios, Hollywood, CA. Mixed at Cherokee Studios, Hollywood, CA (MCA Records) "I like the guitars on that song a lot," Mike Campbell says. "I really like the interplay between Tom and me. I love playing guitar but I get bored playing solos. I like the way Tom plays, he plays like John Lennon, a very rhythmic lead with a lot of feeling. But I don't want to encourage him too much." "That was actually a hit on the country charts with a band called Southern Pacific," Petty says. "They did a country version with Emmylou Harris, very different from ours."
