Was Roger McGuinn's "American Girl" mentioned? It's his sound, if not song, and Petty to his credit readily acknowledges that.

chalmers:

Wow, Carol Kaye even took her pro-Palmer, anti-Blaine crusade to the Amazon comments section in a book where she claims to be misquoted.

I'd say the title of the book but it uses the common name for that group of session musicians that she detests (possibly because Blaine coined it).
