How Tom Petty Beat The Record Label

Before Damn the Torpedoes became a classic, Tom Petty was fighting for control of his career.

After a dispute involving his record contract, Petty refused to back down. The battle nearly derailed everything.

Instead, he released an album packed with classics like “Refugee,” “Don’t Do Me Like That,” and “Here Comes My Girl.”

The result was one of the defining rock albums of its era and the record that launched Tom Petty into superstardom.
