I couldn't find that Letterman appearance on youtube. If anyone stumbles upon it, let me know. : )
Any story with the great Kenny Vaughn included as a side comment must be epic, and this one fits the bill! Thank you again Otis!
Tom Petty was such a nice guy and a extremely high talent. Loved the guy .
I like this guy, he's authentic. Thanks for bringing him to us Otis. Wildflowers is my favorite Heartbreakers album too.
I got wildflowers when I was in the 6th grade, from front to back, it can go Toe to Toe with all of the 90s best

🎩🎸 American treasure🇺🇸🎶
Mike Campbell produced the Marty Stewart and the Fabulous Superlatives album “Way Out West”. A MUST LISTEN!!🎸🎸.
Marty and Kenny complement each other’s playing, and are downright dangerous together!
I was in High School when Wildflowers came out - and I probably listened to that record a thousand times - and probably smoked ten pounds of weed while listening to that record. It's timeless. It's a timeless record, in my opinion. It didn't matter who was in my back seat while I was driving - I'd put Wildflowers on and everybody was down. I'd hear, "I never knew how good Tom Petty was." quite a bit. Yes, indeed.

I was with my son in his pickup listening to a classic rock station. They played several Tom Petty songs, & before the last song I told my son,I hope nothing happened to Tom. Sure enough at the end of the last song,he told about the passing of Tom. He was barely older than me at the time. I loved listening to their many great songs, I was shocked & saddened by the news. His duet with Stevie is one of my favorites. I still listen to their music all the time. Miss you Tom. Thanks Otis for bringing us these fabulous interviews!
Hey Otis..! I gotta say that Allman Brothers Live at the Fillmore “righted MY musical ship”… I had already been playing bass in local bands for about a year… and I heard Berry Oakley playing that Fender Jazz..! Wow..! Thanks for another vacation for my mind,Otis..!👍🏼❤️
I got to see Tom Petty and Albuquerque New Mexico right after he got his guitars back from being stolen wow what a show.
Hi Chris,I know you won't believe that I ghostwrote for Tom Petty,because he was so awesome,but back in 1987.I became more embarrassed about Echo & more proud of Wildflowers with age.
Wow! Great video! I remember getting wildflowers when I was in 6th grade, huge influence during my impressionable years! Howie Epstein was always the goofiest looking bass player, but an absolute ringer and bandleader capabilities. Tom Petty was known for stealing players from other bands, and Del Shannon's bass and bandleader was not spared. Also, Mike Campbell always had the coolest gear, I would always watch him close to see what he was holding.
Hey Otis, I have a story for you. Sat ON STAGE with Bugs for a show on the 2017 tour. Just a regular fan. Call me. Don’t think Bugs would mind me telling it.
I'll never forget how Tom Petty fought the ticket brokers over the prices they charged concert goers...truly a working man's man.
I got to see a Paul McCartney sound check in Washington DC in 2013 at nationals stadium. We got let in early then a rain delay caused a gate shutdown and delay but since we were already in we observed it from the concourse (Magical Mystery Tour, Hope of Deliverance)…
It’s the passion Chris describes assigned to his and others musical journey - not just the impressive! guitar- related technical and artistic proficiencies and references that elevate these interviews
Absolutely.
Man Otis I Love your channel brother. Peace!
Another Great story! Love Tom Petty and Kenny Vaughn.
Thx for sharing Otis Gibbs.😎
That show on Letterman wasn’t too long before Howie was kicked out of the band due to heroin addiction.
Huge TPATH fan ... I absolutely loved this story. Thank you Otis!
love these interviews
great stuff!
R. I. P. Tom Petty! We miss you, your music, and well be together again. Thanks for all you gave us Tom, your music will live forever!
Cool....thanks for sharing.
I was lucky enough to see Tom Petty a good half dozen times in Austin. My daughter and I visited NYC when she was a senior in high school and were lucky enough to score tickets to see Letterman. Oddly enough, Jon Cryer was the guest, but the musical act was a frickin' SOLO DRUMMER.! We demanded our $ back, but management told us to to get a cab, insisting we got our tickets free. True story, folksos. When Tom's axes were stolen on a later Austin tour, I called the 1-800 # andd offered to loan him my vintage cherry red Rickenbacker. I didn't get a response.

When I first moved to Gainesville in 1971 I saw Mudcrutch several times around town. They were fun to watch. We never had any idea what would become of them.
GREAT story! Got to see Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers twice. I was so impressed at both shows at just how he & the band seemed to be having such real FUN! None of this rock star crap. Just kids from the garage down block, taking nothing for granted...
Gr8 Petty Story Chris🤘🏽❤️🔥🎩
Thank you for sharing this....🙏♥️☮️
can never get enough background colour on TP and the Heart Breakers, and it is always GOOD !.
I was in Maui when Tom died. Sad time🖤 RIP Rocker 🙏
I honestly think it’ll take another 25 years before US culture begins to realize what a gift Tom Petty was. For me, he’s the greatest American songwriter.
Your buddy Mr Swope is such a humble presence and a great storyteller. Thanks again, Otis.
When did Scott Thurston join the heartbreakers
Otis Gibbs

It is always good to hear how (somethings) come together for some people. It gives the rest of us a bit of hope.
Awesome story! Thanks for sharing.

I like listening to this guy reminisce.
Chris Swope is my new muse!
Love you Kenny
