Here's a link to that Lester Roadhog Moran and The Cadillac Cowboys album for anyone who needs a good laugh. czcams.com/video/6WdOEpQH_8E/video.html
I've known of Lester & the boys, since I was a young boy. I too, can do those skits, word for word & my band wore out many cassettes of the Cadillac Cowboys, while drivin to gigs. I guess me & Tom Petty had somethin in common. Cool.😏
Otis..My name is Rex Brown. I played with the metal band Pantera from its inception & I just wanted to tell ya how much I enjoy your channel!! I’m not sure if you tape in Nashville or wherever, but I’ve got a place in Nashville & would love to talk old Texas Blues stories with ya!! You can PM me @REJASFROMTEJAS on Twitter..Really enjoyed this broadcast on good ol TP…All my Best to you!!
@@REXBROWNOFFICIAL Hey Rex, it puts a big smile on my face that you enjoy this channel. I'll reach out to ya next time I head to Nashville. It'll be good to meet ya. : )
Still own my original vinyl copy of this comedy gem. A true work of misdirected genius.

Rex, there going to tear down Alrosa Villa soon, and build section 8 housing. how does that resonate with you man?
I think everybody misses Tom Petty
Yep... you're either missing him or you're missing out! Everything he touched was gold.
I miss Tom Petty. I only got to see him once and had pretty good seats. We got in free because of an imagined technical glitch.
my local personal idol told me..."i was sold that bruce was the man but as the yrs go by ....tom petty is the master"
We are all lucky to have lived during his lifetime. RIP Tom
Tom Petty just always seemed a good guy and the way your friends talk I was right. Rest in Peace.
Otis, I don't comment much but I love these guys that are great musicians but not a lot of us who are not in the business know about them. You showed me Kenny Vaughn last week and I am deeply impressed with how good he is. And this guy is right. Everyone should be able to quote Ole Lester Moran and that couple who have been married for 91 years. Keep doing what your doing.
Great interview Otis, love your work and your preservation of the story. Equal in gravity as the Kennedy assassination or the fist steps on the moon, I remember the gray Monday morning on a school bus in Sumner, Washington, when my cortex connected with the “normal noises” of “Even the Losers” at 7:03 am. Tom Petty’s approachable genius will be forever remembered. He was more than a musician. He was transcendent, and listening to his music makes us closer to something intangible that Tom could pull out of thin air. The secret to it all. It was his and he knew it, but he was kind enough to share it with the rest of us. Again, great interview, great stories. Thank you for this.
Tom Petty was genius,in the league with Ray Charles,I play and sing and write, I consider both a million leagues above most today,what they call Americana music is the most sincere music going on today,paint me a great story using just a 6 string,that to me is art.
I loved Tom Petty on the Southern Accents song. In the third verse Tom sings of his mother. She knelt down and said a prayer for me. It rips me up. Thinking of how much I miss my mom. Rip, Tom. Your with her now.
There's certain artists and bands that never grow old and no matter how many times you heard them you never change the station when there songs came on. Tom Petty was definitely and will always be near the top of that list for me.
I'm with ya!
I agree- I can't turn off Tom Petty or Neil Young mid-song,it just feels wrong.
Agreed!
I got to see him with the Heartbreakers in the mid 90s, one of the best shows I ever saw, and I saw a few. Those guys knew what the hell they were about.
Another great video. Petty was a rare breed, always relevant, always with great feel. His legacy is secure.
The very best musician are as well known for what they don't play as what they do play. That's why they are so great.
I totally agree with you Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers they were the best band.
Tom Petty will always be our beloved and dear friend.✝️🇺🇸
Otis! Man-- these videos are just gems. Mark is so humble and soft spoken and a really cool musician. I am so thankful for these insights and anecdotes. You are doing a tremendous service for music history. I really mean that. Best wishes!
Thank you, John!
Well that was pretty excellent, Otis. As a big, old, long-time fan of Tom Petty I found the last part especially poignant. Saw Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers in ‘77 or ‘79. Absolutely one of the greatest, most lick-ass shows I’ve ever seen.
Especially that mid-set bit when they’d break into their Brit Invasion covers.
I was always pissed at Memphis local radio for not playing Tom & band’s 1st single “American Girl”.
Only radio jock in Memphopolous who believed in them was WMC-FM’s Jon Scott who later wound up handling promotion for Tom & The Heartbreakers & at Tom’s behest moved out to L.A. to be near them.
Loved this interview. Absolutely loved it!
Well, obviously I meant to type KICK-ASS. Wow. iPad’s a harsh mistress.
I saw Tom with Mudcrutch at the Ryman. There was a
start/stop moment and that's what I like the realness of that band. Loved Tom Petty.
Oh, thank you so much for this. He ( and all😊) got me through my husband’s lung transplant in Gainesville. His music was MY lifeline- if I ever get brave enough I want to do that little guest DJ thing on his station🤞. Tom Petty😘💐👌❗️
What is awesome is the big role Tom and Jeff Lynne played in Roy Orbison's revival in the late 80s. Especially California Blue.
I think Tom Petty was a folk singer.. in the truest sense..
“It’s good to be king”
I have not heard of your posts prior to this. This is fatuous becaus Tom has been one of my favorite artists of !l time. Thank you so much for doing this kind of story. You can not imagine what the behind the scenes reporting means to me. Our world has lost so many artist's over time, manythat I also enjoyed but none have ever ment so much to me.
Tom Petty a true American kick ass Rock and Roller!
I have subscribed to your page and look forward to other stories you have or will post.
Thank you once again, must say I love what you do and your style!
Kevin
Thank you, Kevin!
Tom Petty and the Heart Breakers were truly one of the last great rock bands.
Tom Petty my all time favorite
I know everything this is to know
I saw them more than a hundred times always from the front row
Always enjoy hearing storys about Tom Petty. ITune in everyday on Channel 31 satellite radio
Great stories! Mark is cooler than an igloo full of fans.
Thank you!
I love these stories ❤️ Rest In Peace Tom petty 💜
Love tom petty. Since the first note I heard from him. Loved it and always will. Thanks Otis
Definitely the last great rock n roll band! Style, class, and timeless
When I was a kid in the seventies I loved the Statler brothers and the Lester Roadhog album came out of nowhere and my mom got it for me and it just killed me and I wore that sucker out !!
It's awesome to know that Petty loved too....
Thank you Otis . I love all the Tom Petty stories, he my favorite
Thank you, Julie!
One of the greatest interviews I've seen. Absolutely beautiful remembrance of Tom Petty. He seemed like such a relatable guy and I suppose that's what makes his music so important to so many of us. Thanks Otis.
Thank ya kindly, Robert!
Thank you for posting this, Otis. I truly believe that Tom Petty will live on forever in his music, but damn, how we miss him!
I could listen to you for hours.... and it would feel like just a couple of minutes. Otis thank you ... and Mark. When someone can touch your soul ...... simple is always better. thank you !
Thank you!
I have a lot of high praise for Tom Petty as well. .... Look at him like a modern Hank Williams in a way. ... Just had great, simple & awesome songs.
Him and The Heartbreakers were outstanding live as well.
Loved his cover of The Lost Highway.
@@evelynbaron8357 Same here!
Also, You're Gonna Change Or I'm Going To Leave, is fantastic as well
@@OldHenryLee Absolutey!
Man I love the Tom Petty stories!! I think Tom is the greatest American song writer! Thank you Otis!!
Thank you, Daniel!
We still have Springsteen. So grateful that I had the opportunity to experience both. Miss Tom more every day.
Great stories. Exactly as I picture Tom. So cool. Thanks
Thanks, Bob!
The Road Hog! "That's how I knew this is someone I want to be around..." Priceless!
Tom understood something about rocknroll and how to mix sounds in a very unique way . He was truly a person who loved his craft and understood how to captivate my imagination.
Mark is right abut Tom's music. when you heard that guitar riff or rhythm, you knew what song it was.
"Tom wanted something to latch onto." Man, ain't that the truth. Tom maybe gone, but he's still everywhere in my life. When I pick up my acoustic, the first song I play is always a Tom Petty song. It's pretty much guaranteed you'll grab the attention of anybody nearby playing one of his.
Really enjoyed that Otis. I use to see Tom Petty and Mudcrutch here in Gainesville, Fl in the early 70's. Really miss him being around. RIP.
Tom Petty sure had Style. His Vibe was electric!! Saw him in 1985 at the New Haven Collesium. Open floor. Crazy Good Time.🎵👍🎶🎵👍🎶. Thanks Otis!!
Thanks, Stephen!
I was at that show 🔥❤️🎸
I'm curious if everyone enjoyed that Chris Hillman album that Tom Petty produced? It's called "Bidin' My Time" if ya haven't heard it. I personally enjoyed it.
Loved the album. His version of "Wildflowers" is cool (covered at Tom's insistence). And Mark was right. TPATHB were possibly the last great American R&R band...no offense to Blackberry Smoke, whom I really dig. Charlie Starr seems to be cut from the same cloth as Tom.
I love the entire album, but I thought “Bells of Rhymny” was stunning.
Yes great album. Great cover of Wildflowers
It truly is a really great album indeed! Also I had a Lester Roadhog & The Cadillac Cowboys record in our house as a kid! Loved when the Statlers did that! Wasn't long ago I went back and watched the skits, good times for sure. Also like to know the possible value of a Townes Van Zant book ?
Another great morning to be alive and here a good story about a guy who I enjoyed listening to through 70s 80s in the prime of my life
Driving home from NYC after seeing Billy Joel at the Garden my brother in law and I vowed to see Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen. I don’t think it was 2 weeks later when my niece called my cell at work to tell me Tom Petty had died. To top it off I still haven’t seen Bruce.
I’ve seen thousands of concerts since the 70s, & people kept telling me that I needed to see Springsteen. Finally got to about 7 years ago. And it was an experience of a lifetime. You just cannot believe the energy - it’s like no other on earth.
There’s two concerts that are worth whatever it takes to get into, one is Springsteen’s & the other is Garth’s.
I really appreciate this great interview. Also, what Mark said about about the instant recognition factor of songs within the first two bars is crucial to remember as a composer and arranger/producer. A gem of insight.
Gotta say I agree with his final assessment. The last great rock n roll band
I saw Chris Hillman at Merlefest once and remember it being one of the best sets I've experienced
Another good interview. I thought that Tom Petty would still be out there for many years to come. His passing came as a real shocker.
As far as the Statler Brothers go- they were hilarious and it felt like they were that way without even trying to be…
Thanks, John!
Oh my goodness…that was a wonderful interview. ❤❤❤
I love these stories! What a great channel!
Another great video. Thank you! For more on TP, I highly the "Conversations with Tom Petty" book. It's all just him talking about everything (except his heroin addiction and divorce).
Thank you!
Thank you, I didn’t know that much about Tom except through the movies he made, he was always impressive. I am looking forward to exploring his music. God Bless. ❤️ 👍👍👍👍👍
Wow. This is a great one Otis ! Cool dude w great stories. Long live Tom Petty. I listen to his music almost daily. Bryce
Thank you, Bryce!
Wow This Man is amazing!Yes As it is told . Tom's Guitar player.Is the highlight of the band. Controversial.I have seen him 3 times
Another awesome post Otis. I love these background stories. Cheers with a cup of coffee!
Thank you, Ted!
Just listening to the Statler Brothers..!! I been in some pretty sketchy bar bands.. so this was hilarious..!!👍🏼❤️
Thanks Otis..! Thanks Mark..!
RIP Tom Petty..❤️🥲
My dad and I used to listen to an old 8 track of Lester Roadhog Moran! We laughed our butts off and would quote it back to each other. When something would go wrong or something, one of us would say "I wished they hadn't a'done that."! lol
That's one cat I'll always regret never having an opportunity to see live. Nothing better than starting the day with a cup o' joe and a Tom Petty story. Such a treat, Otis!
Thank you!
Such a cool guy. Thanks, Otis.
Thanks, Roger!
Beautiful Otis! Thanks from England 🖤✌️
My band was rehearsing when one of my friends mentioned that Tom had passed away. We spent the rest of the rehearsal jamming on TP songs.
Mr Gibbs, please keep these Stories videos coming. I just love them. Thank you for these.
Thank you, Doug!
Mark Fain is one cool dude! I’ve been an admirer of his since back in the 90’s! Thanks Otis for another superior interview.Much appreciated!
Thanks, Wayne!
Glad I stumbled on to this. Just played a gig with Mark a couple weeks ago. Great player. Cool interview! Thanks!
Otis, thanks that was wonderful,RIP Tom!
Thanks, David!
Thanks Mark
Thanks Otis
That was fantastic. Thanks for the message. That bass player is really a nice man, shows how far you can go if you understand how to work with people.
So interesting to hear that, thank you.
this channel is an incredible source of information. these are the things that help musicians make the music that we all want to hear again today. thanks!
I read an article once where a music writer talked about Tom Petty's coffee. He would have his caterers make it to his specifications for parties and there was one night when it was extra good. So he asked the caterer what was up and watched him make it. Apparently, he was leveling the scoops when he made it so from then on Petty changed the way he and his staff made it and also leveled the scoops.
Great great story! Thanks Otis
Thank you! For some reason these vids always cause free associating with random songs. When Mark mentioned Maxwell house I thought of Mississippi John Hurts "Coffee Blues." The other time was with JD mentioning the Minnie Pearl tag; I am embarrassed to admit I associated that with the Bloodhound gang song about a certain type of dance and crying. Keep them coming.
Haha! : )
I am and I did. Got a first print Tom Petty CD the blue oneI first CD I bought.scratched to shit still works. Old CD's
Thank you, not only an amazing story. But truly helpful & inspirational content.
Thanks, Jimmy!
This guy HAS to be from Texas. That fabulous accent
I'm sorry to break it to ya, but he's from Eastern Tennessee. : )
@@otisgibbs So much for my dialect radar : D
Not finding out how the magic coffee is made will now torture me forever. Thank you. 🙄
Weird... Today, June 115th, I was thinking Otis ought to put something out about Tom Petty and his family of musicians. I just figured Petty and his bandmates would be in the Otis Gibbs roadhouse of stories... and then up pops up this diddy with Mark Fain... about Mark's his experiences working with Tom... as if by magic. Life is great sometimes.
A big chunk of me died when he did. The hard part is living and growing with that chunk missing. It's like losing a parent. He was my musical father.
Otis, I enjoyed listening to the story that Mark Fain shared about Chris and Tom. I hadnt heard the album Bidin My Time, so I had to pull it up and listen to it. Well, needless to say, I enjoyed it. This was a reflection of music back to the 60s/70s, and you could deffinitely hear the influence of the Byrds and Roger McGuinn's playing, one of my favorite cuts was Bells of Rhymney, which had been covered by Pete Seeger, the Byrds, and John Denver just to name a couple and honestly I didnt remember it, but what a beautiful song. Thank you for sharing this with us!
The Byrds' version is one of my all time favorite guitar songs. That whole thing is perfect in every way.
Thank you Otis
Thank you, Moe!
Thank you for this video..
Hey, don't forget..George Harrison - All Things Must Pass..is 50 years..a lot of cool people on there..may make a great video ?
Stay safe..
awesome perspective, and story . thanks for posting
Very nice and informative interview.
I love these stories! Thanks!
Thank you!
Another good one, Otis. Enjoyed it.
Thank you!
I Had to subscribe! You look like someone I probable should know. Next thing you know,
you just might put out a video on old Indian moto-sickles! My ears are enjoying what I have been listening to!
I have been watching/enjoying your channel for a while now and think what you are doing is amazing because you let the interviewee talk and you let them talk and you keep them talking with no judgment or putting your knowledge to use in a adversarial way and it is living history what you are documenting and you are part of it whether you like it or not because you are so good at what you do and you know who would be in my opinion the ultimate interviewee for you would be Mal Evans but unfortunately that is impossible but Bobby Whitlock and Coco Carmel also have an awesome channel and they talk about a lot of the Beatle circles and I texted him asking if Mal Evans was around and he responded and said yes but on their channel they never brought him up to my chagrin but when Allen Klein started chopping heads at Apple the Beatles told Alan Klein you can fire anybody except for Niel and Mal and the only place on the interwebs that I have heard anybody speak of Mal is that from redheaded guy you met/interviewed that worked for the Beatles ad he tells an excellent story himself ( and I would love to hear more of his story because he worked for a lot of people ) but I can’t remember his name - please keep doing what it is that you do
Petty and Hillman, two greats. And they stoped selling Maxwell House in Sweden some years ago, went from five cups a day to one!!
If you don't have the Road Hog album, go to your record store and buy it. No collection is complete without it.
Awesome.
Thanks, Jim!
Thank you, Otis!
Thank you!
Another great one Otis !
Thank you, Rob!
Tom Petty dug Roadhog??? Mighty fine boys, mighty fine 👍
