Tom Petty followed up his breakthrough, Damn the Torpedoes, two years later with 1981’s Hard Promises.
This album is best known for its role in a feud Petty waged against the recording industry. MCA Records wanted to charge $9.98 for the record, a dollar more than the usual price thanks to Petty’s star status. Petty fought the increase and delayed the album’s release. Eventually the studio relented and skipped the price hike.
