The Live Anthology is a multiple-disc set of recordings drawn from thirty years of live performances. The collection brings together material from 1978-2007 culled from hundreds of hours of live concert recordings covering every era of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ tours and represents the best tracks as chosen by producers Tom Petty, Mike Campbell and Ryan Ulyate.
The producers made no fixes or overdubs, letting the newly mixed original recordings showcase the invention, spontaneity, craft, and the musicianship that has made Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers among the most celebrated live performers of their time. Along with powerful interpretations of their own classic hits and originals, The Live Anthology features the band tackling some of their best-loved cover material, from classics to obscure beauties to unexpected adaptations. The theme from Goldfinger, the Zombies’ ‘I Want You Back Again,’ the Grateful Dead’s ‘Friend of the Devil,’ early Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Oh Well,’ Booker T. and the MGs’ ‘Green Onions,’ James Brown’s ‘Good, Good Lovin’ and many more. Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers travel wide, paying their musical debts through song and showing just how confidently the band moves across genres and over time.
It’s a commonly held opinion among fans and band alike that Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers’ lone live album, 1986’s Pack Up the Plantation, didn’t quite capture the group at its peak, so there has been a long-standing need for another live set, which 2009’s Live Anthology finally provides. Like its closest cousin, Bruce Springsteen’s Live 1975-1985, Live Anthology almost overcompensates for the long wait by offering almost too much music, cherrypicking highlights from 1978 to 2007. In its simplest incarnation, Live Anthology is a super-affordable, four-disc box set running 48 tracks, which is eight cuts longer than Springsteen’s box, plenty long enough for most fans, but in its deluxe version, available only through Best Buy, there’s an additional CD, plus two previously unreleased DVDs — a 1978 New Years Eve concert from Santa Monica, a documentary called 400 Days shot during the Wildflowers tour — a Blu-Ray edition of all 62 tracks on the five-CD version, a vinyl copy of the 1976 Official Live ‘Leg LP, plus a book and lithograph, along with other assorted bonuses. Certainly, the deluxe edition lives up to its billing, offering enough extras to justify its price tag, but the standard edition is plenty generous as it is, serving up enough consistently strong music from throughout the decades, ranging from expert covers of Willie Dixon and the Grateful Dead to deep treasures from the Heartbreakers catalog. Apart from the tendency to favor performances that stretch on a little too long with jamming — something that is a matter of taste, as some prefer energy to improvisations — if there’s any flaw to the set, it’s how it goes out of its way to prove the band’s consistency by skipping through the decades, letting a version of “Louisiana Rain” from 1972 sit next to a 1997 cover of “Green Onions” and “Melinda” from 2003. This certainly goes a long way to illustrating that Petty & the Heartbreakers always delivered the goods, but it’s somewhat at the expense of forward momentum; it’s hard not to wish that it was arranged chronologically, to be able to hear the raw energy give way to easy skill, but that’s just nitpicking — any way you look at it, this Live Anthology offers an overdose of prime rock & roll.
