Hit Parade: Le Petty Prince Edition
Podcast: Hit Parade | Music History and Music TriviaPublished On: Mon Oct 30 2017
Description: In 2004, Prince joined Tom Petty onstage at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony for what is now regarded as the institution’s greatest live performance. They were both first-ballot inductees—but their similarities go much deeper. On this month’s Hit Parade, we track the surprising parallels between two artists gone far too soon: from their fights with the music industry to their hits across genres and generations—and even the songs they gave to Stevie Nicks. Petty and Prince were category-defying, label-infuriating, and among the best pop songwriters of the late 20th century. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
