It's Good to be King (Tom Petty Cover)

#Itsgoodtobeking #tompettyforever #tompettynation #tompettycover #bryanconnermusic

This is the third release of 5 songs recorded at Strawhorse Studios in Los Angeles, CA with an acclaimed group of musicians come to be known as 'The Politics of Sound'. The entire session was recorded live on February 6th, 2019 and filmed by the great cinematographer John Orphan.

With some reservation I chose to cover a rather poignant song from Tom Petty's acclaimed album 'Wildflowers' produced by the great Rick Rubin. Tom Petty is easily one of the most prolific American rock songwriters known and loved by people of all ages & walks of life. Tom Petty had perspective and mojo that can only be experienced when listening to his music. At the very least I hoped to live up to the challenge of delivering his songs to the best of my ability. In all fairness, I think we did right by him and the fabulous Heartbreakers. RIP Tom Petty. Thanks for the incredible music!
