In that epic four-hour documentary about Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers (Runnin' Down a Dream, directed by Peter Bogdanovich), Tom referred to this record as a "tread-water album." In the same segment, Jimmy Iovine said: "After three records, your should shoot your producer." I think both statements are fair. This record is largely a step backwards, apart from You Got Lucky, and a couple of other tracks.
