Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
"I just finished a record with Mudcrutch, my old band before the Heartbreakers. I am over the moon about it. I couldn't have hoped for it to be as good as it came out." In summer 2007, Tom Petty reunited Mudcrutch, consisting of himself, Heartbreakers Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench, original bandmember Tom Leadon, and Randall Marsh, who joined when Mudcrutch first went to Los Angeles in search of a record deal in the early 70s. Now, more than 30 years later, Mudcrutch finally has its debut album. With new Petty songs and a handful of covers, the self-titled disc is both classic rock and a rock classic.

- Worth The Wait
Any true Tom Petty fan will absolutely love what they hear on this recording. Everything I could ask and more. Tom and his buddies of Mudcrutch prove that the "Powers That Be" did'nt know any more back then, about what a great album should sound like than they do now.

- Man! This is a good album!
I'm a fan of Tom Petty ( though NOT Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers- go figure!). I've listened to both albums one after another numerous times & the Heatbreakers always leave me cold, but Tom Petty's work is terrific (except for "Highway Companion" which I thought was a bunch of tunes that didn't make it onto other TP albums- for good reason!).
I love Tom Petty's work in the Traveling Wilburys, too...
I didn't know anything about Mudcrutch; didn't know I was "waiting " for it!
This sounds to me very much like a lot of the music that came out of San Francisco in the late 60's & early 70's. That musical era/ musical explosion of ideas ushered in what was probably the most creative & & far reaching period in American music!
That's a pretty serious legacy ... Read More

- They Get That Grateful Dead Vibe Going...On Some of the Record

I've always liked Tom Petty, although at times, he tends to be content to flow in the mainstream. Looking at a recent setlist from his current tour, it consists mostly of his big hits. Nothing wrong with big hits, but for me, Petty shines best when he veers off the beaten path a little and does things like The Traveling Wilburys, or jams with Dylan, etc.

I'll confess right now that I haven't purchased every single Tom Petty record because several are kind of mainstream and at times, less than consistent. That said, I do own a handful of his albums that have held up nicely over time.

When this "side project" (it really isn't, in that the lineup is 90% Heartbreakers, but I digress) record came out, some reviewers commented that it evokes an early Grateful ... Read More

- Worth a Listen
The obvious elephant in the room with this project is Tom Petty. But, this is far from just a Tom Petty project. This disc is lovingly put together by old friends simply for the joy of music, and the joy of being together.
Lead off track, Shady Grove..( vocals here by Tom Leadon ) sets the stage. It is a comfortable interpretation of a well known song, and Leadons voice fits right in with the bands chugging along style. The second track, Scare Easy sounds the most like it came from a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers disc. Pettys mournful drawl is well suited for this track, and his pursuit for music with values, and his well documented disdain for the music industry is well suited to the lyrics. As one who has never backed down, it is easy to believe Petty doesn't "Scare Easy".

This is Tom Petty in his groove. It's very easy listening, very good road-trip music. I liked Highway Companion, this reminds me of it. I'm not sure where the name Mudcrutch came from, or why he didn't publish under his own name, but Tom's fingerprints are all over this CD. It's a great buy.
