How would you classify Tom Petty?

my dad's a 61 year old pothead and all he listens to is Neil Young, Pink Floyd, and Led Zeppelin. so nothing that surprising or interesting.

He might be about 10 years too old for the heartbreaker then

Tom Petty is the crossover of Auntcore and Unclecore

Tom Petty is my dad's favorite artist, but my dad has never smoked weed or a cigarette in his life and hates drug users.

So, I guess, momcore

I hated him when I was younger...thought he was a whiny songster- sorta have buddly holly/dylan/costello vibe but grew to appreciate his depth, his songwriting and even his singing....dude seems pretty legit.

a lot of the rock in the 70s and 80s was rock being done by working class dudes from Ohio or New Jersey for working class dudes from said areas

eh. when you're uptight, sometimes you have to make a choice to be into culture that's aimed towards a more hip audience.

imagine being a christian republican and literally every piece of significant pop culture for the last 5 decades has been created by profligates and sodomites.
