  • When in Doubt, Play Petty… JAG HAR CITERAT DET FÖRR OCH GÖR DET IGEN: ”When in Doubt, Play Petty”
    Ur arkivet – sommarläsning med Livets Goda.se: When in doubt, play Petty… JAG HAR CITERAT DET FÖRR OCH GÖR DET IGEN: ”When in doubt, play Petty”. Uttrycket, som myntats av en brittisk radio-DJ säger så mycket. Pettys musik representerar ruta ett. Den är inte extrem åt något håll, men det finns en självklarhet, tidlöshet och självkänsla i den som tål att ställas upp bredvid i stort sett vad som helst. Deras musik låter inte så märkvärdig. Den skriker sällan efter uppmärksamhet. Men den passar i sin förledande enkelhet in på så många ställen. I bilen. På favoritpuben. På mingelfesten. I hängmattan. I nattradion. Under storstadspromenader eller på somriga ängar. Och – inte minst – live. För deras musik är som en väl packad väska: ingen övervikt, bara det nödvändigaste. På många sätt är de popmusikens och den traditionella gubbrockens svar på AC/DC, för de har aldrig riktigt tvivlat på sitt eget uttryck. Bara en enda låt med Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers innehåller synthesizer (You Got Lucky). Då är man rätt konsekvent. Utan åthävor har de i 35 år stått för kvalitetskontroll, pålitlighet och genuin kärlek till rocken som musik, attityd och livsstil. Kort sagt: de är äkta vara. Mitt första album med Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers var Damn The Torpedoes. Jag köpte det när det var nytt, 1979, efter att ha hört singlarna på radion. Mitt engagemang i deras musik har sedan dess gått i perioder, som alla långvariga och seriösa relationer. I slutändan har jag alltid återvänt till deras musik med förnyad respekt. Jag har själv haft förmånen att uppleva Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers live fyra gånger.
