The record

Title: Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers – Damn The Torpedoes
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1979, Rock, Pop Rock, Gainesville, Florida
Matrix #: MCA-5105
Condition: EX, sounds great, looks great

Cultural Facts:

    1. Legal Trouble: Petty fought Shelter and MCA in court over contract control, even filing bankruptcy to block being transferred like property.

    2. Band Drama: The title reflected Petty’s mood during label warfare; the record arrived with the band under real business pressure, not just studio tension.

    3. Family Ties: Mike Campbell wrote the music for “Refugee” after years of struggle and rejection, bringing in a song Petty nearly passed on at first.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
