Artiste étonnant et original, Petty a produit bon nombre de succès dans lesquels figuraient les exclus.

 "After years of swimming upstream, Petty was at ease with his legacy in the later years of his life. "As you're coming up, you're recognized song for song or album for album," he told Esquire in 2006. "What's changed these days is that the man who approaches me on the street is more or less thanking me for a body of work – the soundtrack to his life, as a lot of them say. And that's a wonderful feeling. It's all an artist can ask.""
