Tom Petty, 1973

The lighting in this shot is perfect—it catches that calm, patient look Tom had during the session. The paper has a nice matte finish that makes the black-and-white tones really pop. I’ve got it framed in my living room and it’s already a conversation starter.

This print really captures that relaxed, patient energy he must have had in the studio. I was a little nervous about the quality, but the detail in the photo is sharp, and it feels like a genuine piece of music history.
