Tom Petty vs. The White Stripes

This is a great find by Michael. The jam out riff in Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers‘ 1993 track “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” features a guitar riff very similar to the “chorus chanting” inĀ The White Stripes‘ 2002 “Fell In Love With A Girl”. Check it out!

    Tom Petty’s ‘Down South’ recorded on the Album Highway Companion, sounds a lot like Bob Dylans ‘Love Minus Zero’ in the beginning

    “Fell In Love With A Girl” by the White Stripes = “Middle Of The Road” by the Pretenders. Done.

    Still love the White Stripes, though. Don’t get me wrong. Damn! Another Pretenders song.
