This is where Petty's Dylan influence begins to rear its head. He made his name as an all-American, Byrds-inspired rock & roller, but on HARD PROMISES Petty began to explore a more reflective style, leaning on the softer side of his folk-rock roots. This is no NEBRASKA-there are plenty of spirited rockers and classy pop tunes-but Petty does sound like he's been spending some time with BRINGING IT ALL BACK HOME. There are sharply observed character studies of hard-luck and no-luck guys ("Something Big," "Nightwatchman"), urgent power-pop declarations of romantic desperation ("A Thing About You") and even some light-hearted socio-cultural observations ("King's Road"). HARD PROMISES is Petty's first step towards the eclecticism that would mark his later work, and it's easily his most underrated album.
Recorded at Sound City, Van Nuys, California; Cherokee Studios, Hollywood, California; Goodnight, Los Angeles, California.

Hard Promises CD music
$14.69 All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.
LIVE ON TOUR was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album.
John Prine's imaginatively titled second live album shows that the years have not diminished the performing or compositional abilities of this seminal singer-songwriter. LIVE ON TOUR covers the span of his 25-year recording career, from early classics like the pot-smoker's anthem, "Illegal Smile," and the Dylanesque "The Late John Garfield Blues" to '90s material like the wry "Quit Hollerin' At Me."
Backed by a crack band, Prine essays the kind of easy-going charm that has made his blend of country, folk, and rock come across so well for so long. Prine has the gift of simplicity, ...
