Tom Petty’s last interview revealed a man with more music to offer.

Petty sat down with Randy Lewis from the Los Angeles Times and shared his thoughts on a career-culminating, albeit grueling, final tour to mark a 40 year run for Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. The band played 53 shows. This wasn’t supposed to be the end of his career. Petty had more to come, particularly with the Shelters, a younger band Petty was guiding.
