Editorial Review:Amazon.com:'I just finished a record with Mudcrutch, my old band before the Heartbreakers. I am over the moon about it. I couldn't have hoped for it to be as good as it came out.' In summer 2007, Tom Petty reunited Mudcrutch, consisting of himself, Heartbreakers Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench, original bandmember Tom Leadon, and Randall Marsh, who joined when Mudcrutch first went to Los Angeles in search of a record deal in the early 70s. Now, more than 30 years later, Mudcrutch finally has its debut album. With new Petty songs and a handful of covers, the self-titled disc is both classic rock and a rock classic.

TAKE 3 songs off, and it's perfect
"Bootleg flyer " ??? What a stupid song. Who wants to think about that in there head......driving down the road. What about " Orpan of the storm " ?? Now there's a happy tune ( YA, RIGHT !! ). And why is Tom Petty singing about, what sounds like some dark, evil angel, in the song " SCARE EASY " This is not a cheerful selection of songs, for the rest of the album. WE, the consumers, want to be happy. Write about FUN stuff. The topics, subjects of these 3 songs, mess-up the feel of this album. If edited we would have a great cd. I've noticed that in the last last 3-4 albums by tom petty, that it's not the sound or voice of his songs that are bad, but the SUBJECT of the songs. There not wrote about something interesting. FIX IT. (p.s ) The other songs are really good.

uggg...
They should have made this a "Tom Petty" cd to begin with. I was not real impressed. Kind of dissappointed that so many of the songs sounded just like previous Tom Petty songs.

Country-Rock & Roll
Mudcrutch 08 defines a new genre, country-rock & roll. You'll hear some some of the finest country-rock with a few uptemp rock & rollers and one jam band song. Playing songs from great tempoed country-rock to even a hillbilly jazz number, Mudcrutch has more than excelled. Clarence White would be very proud of what Mudcrutch has accomplished on this recording. Many hats off to Petty and the boys for producing one of the finest country rock recordings to come out in years. Just one other thing, with all the warped political and social views these days, thanks for stickin' to makin' great music without the BS commentary.

Under Cover Petty
Not a bad song on the CD, from foot stomping to belly rubbing songs. If you're a Petty fan you'll love this one with his original gang.

Mudcrutch
For an album made in 10 days it has good sound quality and the music is also of good quality, what more could you ask for? A little bit of the "Heartbreakers" sound is there but what I hear is something more down to earth almost like a great garage band playing and the neighbors are opening their windows instead of closing them.
