Tom Petty Estate & Third Man Records Share New Petty Bootleg

The Tom Petty Estate and Third Man Records have collaborated to share a rare Petty bootleg performance, Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers Live In Edinburgh 1982: The Gennaro Tapes, on Nov. 29.

Recorded by house sound mixer Gennaro Rippo and taped at the band’s show in Edinburgh, Scotland in the fall of 1982, the unique recording showcases a raw era-defining moment in the band’s career as they toured their album, Long After Dark, and will be available in a limited vinyl-only press of 7,000 copies.

The project is inspired by Third Man Record’s Jack White and Ben Blackwell, longtime fans of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers and their enthusiasm for hearing something raw and unpolished from the band in this golden era. The release marks the first and only Petty live recording that hasn’t been touched since the day it was captured, pressed directly from cassette to vinyl. The band enjoyed listening to the cassette tapes after shows in what they would call affectionately “Gennaro’s Hawaiian Disco,” often giving him the Presidential Suite in the hotel for the band to hang out and listen each night.

The previously unreleased show is available as a three-disc collection in three unique colors, including Tom Petty Store-exclusive turquoise vinyl, Third Man Records Store-exclusive maroon reverse splatter and indie retail-exclusive orange wisp.

The Gennaro Tapes rounds out the look at the 1982 collection of archival footage and music shared by the Tom Petty Estate this year. Cameron Crowe’s documentary, Heartbreakers Beach Party and Long After Dark Deluxe Edition, included 45 minutes of rediscovered music, and Petty’s unearthed original single from the deluxe edition, “Never Be You,” is out now with a new video created and directed by animator Jeff Scher.
