Summary: <br> Our previous “In The 90s” episodes examined the careers of <a href="http://www.digmeoutpodcast.com/post/132931124846/252-van-halen-in-the-90s-round-table-this-week">Van Halen</a> and <a href="http://www.digmeoutpodcast.com/post/144500840961/metallicaroundtable">Metallica</a> in that decade and discussed if they had managed to survive the turbulence that was the rise of alternative and independent rock music. For our latest edition, we’re joined by <a href="https://americansongwriter.com/author/paul-zollo/">author/songwriter Paul Zollo</a> to revisit the career of Tom Petty, who released the book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Conversations-Tom-Petty/dp/0825634717">Conversations With Tom Petty</a> in 2006. Starting with the <a href="https://jefflynneselo.com/">Jeff Lynne</a> produced Heartbreakers backed album Into The Great Wide Open, we dig into the changes in Petty’s songwriting, the band personnel changes, his second solo album Wildflowers with producer <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Rubin">Rick Rubin</a> onto the decade closing album Echo.
