Certainly Petty had a more expressive range lyrically even though he stuck to a pretty clear template.

Have to wonder why he didn't have a big resurgence like, say, Chris Bell. Probably just that he survived?

Interestingly - both versions started with the same track - and we replaced every instrument on Juju's, but the bass - the it's the EXACT same bass track on both versions.
