Tom Petty
Tom Petty  wrote dozens of classic songs (âFree Fallin â âAmerican Girl â âRefugee â and on and on). Here are a few deeper cuts that endure:
âFooled Again (I Donât Like It) â from â Tom Petty  and the Heartbreakersâ (1976): The eeriest  nastiest track on the bandâs debut.

âI Need to Know â from âYouâre Gonna Get Itâ (1978):  Petty  was initially pegged as a new-wave artist by tastemakers who didnât know what to make of  him   and this song embodies the fast  terse  almost slapdash urgency of the form with the guitar interplay of Petty and Mike Campbell.

âLouisiana Rain â from âDamn the Torpedoesâ (1979): This sounds like a battered  bruised  bluesy outtake from the Rolling Stonesâ âBeggars Banquetâ with  Petty  channeling Keith Richards.

âDonât Fade on Me â from âWildflowersâ (1994): One of Pettyâs best and most underrated albums with Rick Rubin production  coming off recent work with Johnny Cash  focused on intimacy and stripped-down production.  Petty  has never sounded more vulnerable than  he  does on this acoustic track.
