Make no mistake this is the greatest American band!

We ALL got lucky, when we found Petty! :)

One of the greatest songwriters of all time! And that voice! Magical

I got lucky when I found Tom Petty, after all the years I didn't know about him. I found a treasure that brings me so much joy, and sometimes sadness.I wish I had known him sooner. Dear Tom, I pray you're having a wonderful time in heaven.

20 minutes of listening to Tom Petty saved my life...

Still hard to believe that Ron Blair walked away from all that...but 12 years later he was back. Great band....Mike is a God. Wrote Boys of Summer for Don Henley and a lot of other things that he doesn't get recognized for. RIP Tom.

He finally got them shouting. God the early years must've been so painful as people just sat there. And now we can sing every damn song while he just stands there and listens to us. Even when he is in heaven. Right People? Yep. RIPTP.

Oh my camera looks like a teenager. Oh my God. This is so cute.

Tom had so much energy on stage back then. Absolutely love their version of Shout at the end. Miss that band so much

These men were pure genius together. So good.

I think TP is the best songwriter of all time!

His music will live on forever!

That SHOUT was so special

Everyone loved Tom Petty...❤

I love all of the breakdowns. But this is my absolute favorite. Because he is young and he is going for it and it's beautiful. Just love this fellow RIP Tom June 15, 2022

I have loved Tom Petty since I first heard him in the early eighties. I cried for days when he died! Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers will live on into many years to come !! Rest in Peace, Tom Petty!! I will never forget you ❤️💖❣️💜💙💕 and will continue to listen to your great 🎵🎶!!!

Now that's what I call talent. What a legend.

1982 I was 22, 2 kids, 2 jobs, couldn't wait to grow up as a kid, but I had toms music, great songs about love and the search of it.

Mike killed it,. so did Howie, and everyone, including Tom.,. wOwser. 4 reals. Thanks Allen for posting this

I love this era - the band still had a kind raw edge that I missed a bit later

Great year for a live show! Long After Dark & all that came before. I've noticed that his early years tend to be less popular than Wildflowers & later. I love it all, but those early albums are actually more special to me always. You're Gonna Get It! is a beast of an album from start to finish. Another great upload. Thank you ♥

Watching them so young. My god where did all the years go? Enjoy life while you can

I saw these guys in Tucson Arizona the same year...I will never forget that night.. they were just magic .. they played for almost three hours...we all sure miss you Tom....❤️❤️

Look how young they all were. Love 💕 His voice is beautiful The heartbreakers are the best of the best.

TOM PETTY AND THE HEARTBREAKERS ARE. THE ESSENCE OF ROCK AND ROLL. TO ME ANYWAY. THANKS GUYS !!!

best concert ever

Not that I don’t like full moon fever, wild flowers and all the later stuff, but the first five albums (and the live shows) really are my favourites. There is an amazing rock n roll energy on this one!

You won't find a better live Tom Petty video than this one.

He was so awesome. I want my hair cut like that. We have the same fine, blonde straight hair and he looks great!!! LOVED that guy.

My uncle introduced me to to this band, and whenever I listen to Tom Petty I always remember my uncle, They both passed about same years, so RIP both of them! I miss them so much

I had never seen him in early days. But watching Breakdown just now, holy shit. Incredible. He understood even back then. And in every life stage, no matter what our age, this stuff affects us differently. And the song is still just as great today, rest in peace our dear sweetie.

Wow that is one f ing amazing cover of shout one of the best I’ve ever seen I’m an 80s Petty guy saw him 7 times between 84-89 this brings back some great memories thank u for the post and god love you Tom Petty you were an amazing gift for this world you are missed by all and always will be loved and appreciated I know your still rocking

Every time I hear Tom Petty I want to hop in the car, go out to the desert, have a few drinks and enjoy the sunshine. Such feel good music.

Your right! No matter how I am Which started from the beginning of my OLD AGE until this moment. Tom never gets old....

Bravissimo tesoro mio tesoro

Lucky to find an HQ complete live performance on YT anymore! I think they're re-releasing everything they can dredge up for $50 since his departure. I don't think he'd have approved. Thanks again ♥

Tom Petty....Spectacular!!!!

Tom was away great 👍 see you in the next life keep on Rocken

Over the last year I've come to realise just how great TPHB was as a band 'in the scheme of things'. I've watched endless videos and have also realised how perfect the line-up was. Mike, Benmont, Steve, Scott, Ron and...... Stevie when she was around. They were....just perfect. Footnote: Mike Campbell is up there with the VERY best Looking forward there will always be TPHB.ALWAYS. So take heart, folks! All our love to Dana and the kids. Keeping Tom's memory alive won't be difficult

Go on and on and on and on beautiful great powerful hihgly talented ánd pretty mr. TOM PETTY...SO GLAD WE STILL HAVE ÁLL THE VIDEO'S AND RECORDINGS...I will listen to your and your heartbreakers music untill I take my last breath...untill my heart stops beating...

Salam un grand respect for pour Tom petty je suis un grand fan

the entire band was as good on day one as the last day. r.i.p howie and master artist, tom.

Just love this sweet man so much, my heart is in bits 💔 over the loss of Tom, and a big part of me died with him, miss you Mr Tom Petty. Lesley Jane. Xxxxxx ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🎩🎶🎸🎼🌹💋

I saw TP and The Heartbreakers on this very tour--at SPAC, in upstate NY. Summer 1982 it would have been... & I will never forget it as long I as live. It was a transcendental experience. One from which, I've neither fully returned nor been the same, really. This was, without question, his time; his halcyon. Both the momentum and focus of this particular band was reaching beyond risky levels.... I do recall, and quite vividly, several young females actually fainting or collapsing just a row or 2 from my party, from being put under Tom's spell and unleashing emotions. PS BTW, it was also my first ever rock show; I was 14 years old. It didn't matter at all. The truth to you I tell.

When he died I felt like i had lost a close friend.

Incredible stage presence in his early years he may have been the best

Allyn Kessler great call !! Thanks for the joy ❤

Sorry for all the typos and stuff folks it's 2022 is around midnight new daylight savings time and I don't have my glasses on. Boy oh boy

Fantastic video Thank you.

I cannot thank Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers enough for how much pleasure and joy and excitement and thrill they give my ears I so much love their music so so so so much I'm definitely trying to listen to more music and expand my repertoire but man this band still gives me tremendous pleasure and I've loved them since 1979 when I was only 11 years old. I found this brilliant 1982 Tom Petty and the heartbreaker's concert and he morphs the song breakdown into hit the road Jack it's really beautifully done

Ohhh, baby I miss you.... RIP Tom

As sad that I feel, I will listen to his music all day and forever. Thanks Allyn.

One of best Concerts from Tom, awesome...

So many memories to TP from childhood in the 80s/90s. My dad played TP in the car always :) Good times!

Just loving your music and you 💖 forever 💕👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Breakdown gets to me every time. Woof!

this is the best version of Breakdown I’ve ever heard!!

Little more raw back then nonetheless ultra beautiful.ty tph

What a beautiful boy. Time is cruel.

Just when classic rock was over, along comes Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers...

Unreal, stunning and I was totally enchanted, the concert went by way to fast for me. For me every musician was at his best. Very kinetic. Tom at his best, Mike at his best, Benmont at his best, Howie at his best and Stan at his best, even the tambourine guy. You know when Tom Petty was singing I believed every word. When he was singing “Breakdown “ you know your so sure the emotions he projecting is about a girl and some of it may be but I also think he is projecting emotions about something deeper in his past, almost like he is going back to another kind of pain maybe stemming from his an abusive person when he was a kid or a teenager that said some unkind things to him but obviously he survived and he knew he was strong enough to say I don’t care because he was going to make it and he did, he did so good. I saw a darker Mike CAMPBELL on this particular concert but so right on time with his solo parts, his guitar grabbed every word Tom was singing. Very special again very kinetic. Benmont Tench piano playing is just the right touch , so beautiful , Stan Lynch just really into it. Howie Epstein on bass perfect sound , great harmonies and he always seemed so humble when watching him play. I liked the ending with “Shout” “baby it’s the guitar man, he can bring you up he can bring you down”. Just beautiful, I got chills watching this performance. Excellent concert, always thank you Allyn Kessler for sharing.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

LOVE TOM PETTY FOREVER. LOVE FROM TENNESSEE ALWAYS ✌️✌️✌️✌️❤️💗💙🎶🎵

If I remember correctly.....Mr. Petty wasn't really quite a Rock Star until he conquered.Europe. Mission Accomplished!

Change of Heart & Straight into Darkness...👌

Long After Dark Tour!!! My 1st Tom Petty concert at the Cow Palace, Daley City Ca. April 2013. The crowd moved toward the stage followed by security bring out at least a 6.7 tall 350 lbs gent, the crowd parted like the Red Sea. The raw emotion of the early concerts was incredible!!!

Thank you Allyn Kessler for posting this. Heartbreakers -- love their music forever.

Nice concert. Great vibe! RIP Tom Petty.

Great concert. Those lucky Germans!

Oh dear, be still my heart. Love Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, then, now and will be forever in my heart. Great Vidoe!!!!!! Nice quality!!! Thanks

Straight Into Darkness is a real treat here. Mike Campbell's guitar clearly inspired by New Wave bands, and it gives the band a fascinatingly different sound. Loved how TB&HB always found a way to update their sound, but still stayed 100% Authentic and true to themselves.

Keep the music going forever. Love American treasure

Just had that rush of a crush I felt back in high school. In love! (Reality check: I'm deeply happy he found true love with Dana--I'm just talking about teenage girl omg he is so freakin' hot!) Been so serious watching all his concerts, with so many intense emotions, it's great to feel like this--and remember him like this. The whole band is so fantastic--happy, loose, tight, not a bad note in the concert. Don't know how I'd handle this sad anniversary without Allyn's posts. Thank you!

I’m only 21min into it and already an awesome video. I remember hearing refugee for the first time in High school and having friends whose music taste were from Heavy Metal to Country saying what a badass song that was. And so many awesome albums to come after that. An American Treasure indeed. Thanks for the upload.

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were kind of unique. They didn't really fit into any category and weren't trying to. The only genre they could fit into would be the "outstanding, no bullshit, just plain great rock and roll" style.

Fantastic video. Thank you! ... I can't adequately put into words how much I love TPATH. We are so blessed to know Tom's music. My wife and I saw him in Indy on the 40th anniversary tour, and I was certain I'd never again see anything as musically gifted as that. Joe Walsh opened, and Petty capped off the show that was flawless. Sometimes when things get tough for me, I turn on The Last DJ, or the Traveling Wilburys or Damn the Torpedoes, or really anything he ever did, and it gets me through. Seriously, Thank God he never gave up when things got tough for him.

My first time seeing Tom petty, had no idea who he was. It was a made for tv concert. Flock of seagulls, Chicago, loverboy and tom petty..recorded it so I could watch it again when we got home

Thank you, Allyn, for uploading this awesome concert! The audio and visual are excellent! I saw Tom Petty twice in the early 2000’s with my daughters at Great Woods in Mansfield, Massachusetts. Both concerts were fabulous! I am reading Tom’s biography by Warren Zanes. He had such an awful childhood, which makes his success as a musician even more admirable and amazing. He was able to overcome so much adversity.

Perfect set⚘Thank you

This is spectacular

Forever in a day the reason why I’m still kicking is because of the inspiration of Tom and all the people around Tom Petty including all those expert musicians we were so happy to grow up with

God, what a perfect setlist for my life at the moment.

Saw hi in the Syria Mosque in Pittsburgh in I think '81 and he and the band were phenomenal!!

Awesome show . Thanks for sharing

Damn, I miss Tom Petty

17:43 that transition makes you realize that Tom Petty, in fact, was the coolest MF to ever live. One of my biggest regrets in life is finding him too late.

I miss them sooooooo MUCH !!!

Thank you Allyn - this is the way I will always see these guys in my mind and my heart.

Hard to believe it's been nearly 40 years. Sounds great. And hadn't even reached their pinnacle yet.

oh, this concert played when I was a wee 5 month old baby! Tom you make me feel so young.

Buenos inicios de un gran músico por siempre

In his final Minneapolis concert, You Got Lucky was the highlight. It was the band’s treat. They jammed on it.

They were on this night. Refugee especially- played with passion.

Oof that first song is so nostalgic

Thanks heaps Allyn. Another great job and most appreciated by us all - while we all mourn his death 1 year today

Very Good Show, Live Dortmund my favorites shows

that is my GUY right there

The BEST....LUV U Tom Petty! God Bless 💚✌💚
