The long-overdue Greatest Hits held monumental significance in Heartbreakers history by becoming their biggest selling album to date – a 12 x Platinum monster featuring all the bands heartland rock classics including ‘American Girl’, ‘Don’t Come Around Here No More’ & ‘Learning To Fly’. As well, the album features highlights from Tom Petty’s solo outing Full Moon Fever including ‘Free Fallin’, ‘I Won’t Back Down’ & ‘Runnin’ Down A Dream’. Quite apart from all the hits you’d expect to hear there are other surprises like the bands version of Thunderclap Newman’s ‘Something in the Air’ and ‘Mary Jane’s Last Dance’ (produced with Rick Rubin) that became an FM staple in its own right.
The International version also includes Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers second UK single (& first UK Hit) ‘Anything That’s Rock ‘n’ Roll’ adding further weight to the definitive compendium of the American rock pioneer’s works.
