Info for Southern Accents

Few musicians can manage to produce simple, pop-inflected rock & roll with as much integrity as Tom Petty. Possibly the definitive FM rock radio star, Petty has been combining great hooks, unabashedly straightforward arrangements and a Dylanesque, clenched-teeth-whine on great records since the mid '70s.

„Southern Accents“, though not up to the snuff of his earlier efforts, still delivers in suitable fashion. „Southern Accents“ is notable chiefly for the unbelievably great, sitar-drenched, drone-groove of 'Don't Come Around Here No More,' a song that manages to be distinctly Petty and, at the same time, like nothing he's done before. While not Petty's best, „Southern Accents“ is still an example of the thing Petty makes best: honest pop music.
