Perhaps you're a little early to report that about Charlie T. Wilbury, Jr.

''Officer Tony Im said the LAPD did not respond to any incident involving the rocker. CBS has since amended its story, and the trade Variety also retracted its obituary, which cited an unnamed source confirming Petty's death''

''The news outlets reported Monday afternoon that Petty was dead at age 66. CBS did not cite a source in its story, but tweeted that LAPD confirmed Petty's death. CBS and Variety now cite TMZ reporting that says Petty is "clinging to life."

If I'm wrong , great. Can't believe media would report his demise if they were not officially told, wankers...but these days , yeah I could believe that of the media...

Tom Petty's daughter fires back at Rolling Stone: 'My dad is not dead'

Either way I do think we've heard the last original Tom Petty music. But, his songs are a pleasure to be re-enjoyed. When it comes, R.I.P. Tom. You are/were one of the Greats, especially but not only on 'Damn the Torpedoes' and when singing with Stevie Nicks.

R.I.P Tom Petty; One of the first tunes I learnt in my first band was "Breakdown". Loved Stan Lynch as a sit behind drummer (listen to "You don't know how it feels"), Tom was so lucky, and then to have Steve Ferone in a later line up, wow! ( Listen Average White band - "Cut the Cake".
Many of his tunes iv'e played and they were all fun, Last Dance Mary Jane, running down a dream, refugee. His band The Travelling Wilberries were awesome line up.

I like his cover of this...
