Digitally remastered and expanded Deluxe edition of this classic 1979 album including nine bonus tracks, seven of which are previously unreleased. "Damn The Torpedoes" catapulted Petty and company into the first rank of American Rock acts. It's not hard to understand why. With a slate of driving songs destined to become FM staples ("Refugee", "Here Comes My Girl", "Even the Losers", "Don't Do Me Like That"), it's an album that plays much like half a greatest-hits collection. Fusing a rootsy sensibility heavy with Dylan and Byrds affectations with his own pop instincts and coupling them with one of rock's most consistently underrated powerhouses, The Heartbreakers, Petty's throwback traditionalism oddly found him riding the crest of the new wave in the late '70s.
One of the most highly acclaimed albums of the 1970s, Damn the Torpedoes remains a steadfast on plenty of "all time greatest" lists. Rolling Stone ranked it in their "500 greatest albums of all time" and MOJO placed it in their "70 from the 1970's" list. Widely regarded as the band's magnum opus, the album spent 7 weeks on Billboard's chart and yielded two massive singles: "Don't Do Me Like That" and "Refuge." At last, the album is given a much-deserved full reissue treatment, including 96kHz/24bit remastering and a bonus disc including previously unreleased studio material (including the gem "Nowhere"), two B-sides, demos, and three searing live tracks from a 1980 performance at London's Hammersmith Odeon. Even if you know every one of these iconic masterpieces by heart, to hear this stunning remaster/reissue is to experience one of rock & roll's all-time greatest albums for the first time.
