The shows were taped during the last six nights of the band’s historic residency. The record will be offered in a 3 LP version simulating one of the concerts and a comprehensive box set featuring 58 songs and 14 humorous spoken word tracks that highlight Petty’s connection with his band and his fans from the stage. “We all feel this might be the high point of our time together as a group… It’s going to be hard to get us off this stage tonight.” The captivating sold-out performances were such a hit, the Heartbreakers were even nicknamed the “Fillmore House Band.” At the final show, Petty noted as he took the stage: The Fillmore was a laboratory for the band.

The band was on fire and we changed the setlist every night. “Playing the Fillmore in 1997 for a month was one of my favourite experiences as a musician in my whole life. Other standouts include extended versions of original tracks “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” and “It’s Good To Be King.” The collection also features special performances with The Byrds’ frontman Roger McGuinn and blues legend John Lee Hooker. Cale’s “Crazy Mama,” The Rolling Stones’ “Time is On My Side” and more from The Kinks, Everly Brothers, Bill Withers, The Byrds, Chuck Berry and Booker T. Highlights include Bob Dylan’s “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door,” J.J.

The shows at the Fillmore ended up being some of the most joyful, honest, inspirational and prolific experiences of the band’s career, creating a unique bond between the group and their fans.
