I think Tom made that empty space in Tom's life. Tom must have left a hole in Mike's heart, but Mike found this lovely way to fill it. Thanks so much, Mike.
Mike, Mike, Mike. You and he have the same voice, it's wonderful to hear. Added to that is the fact that you are still Mike Campbell, the guitarist that he said was one of the greats, often overlooked, and he was so right. I love watching your videos on youtube, it not only keeps him alive but I love learning more and more about you, Mike Campbell. One of the greats. Beautiful stuff x
Mike Campbell, ich liebe Dein Spiel, Dein Gesang, Deine Musik und ich habe das gute Gefühl Tom Petty sitzt neben Dir und scheint echt glücklich, das Du toll weitermachst. Die Musik ist einfach große Klasse, vor allem mit den Bläsern.
I know it was fantastic. L live in Memphis,but has to be out of town that week.Think l heard Mike Campbell and The Dirty Knobs are coming out with a New Album June or July 14th.I think.Sure wished l could see them.Saw The Heartbreakers many,many times.But l not seen Mike' band,Yet.Have a Great Day.!!☝️🔥🎸🎙🎶
What a beautiful song, musically & spiritually. Mike & Margo, you both complemented the song & each other's voices outstandingly. Every piece beautifully perfected. This has got to be my number one DK's track🎶💚🎶
Mike your music is healing. This song fills me with me hope. The Knobs music has so much expression and passion. I am currently in my sixth year battling cancer and play live whenever we can. As you well know it’s music that’s life affirming. Thank You
Conocía a M, Campbell como un magnífico guitarrista y como músico vinculado a mi admirado y recordado Tom Petty. Pero ahora, le estoy descubriendo como músico en solitario y está siendo un descubrimiento muy dichoso. Esta canción en particular, me parece realmente preciosa, muy emocionante, de una gran delicadeza. Una canción para soñar.
Wonderfully done. It's refreshing to hear some quality new music these days with all the garbage out there. Nice to see and hear you doin' your thing Mike. You, Margo, and The Dirty Knobs nailed it. Thank you. You are appreciated.
Mike that song is real perfect man. You can feel it all the way through. I've been Rocking with ya'll for a long time. Thanks for your dedication to good music.
Keep it coming Brother!! You are the reflection of pure humble brotherhood. Now is your time. You know Tom is on some other "plane" saying 'Fuck Yea'!!
Saw you at Leach Amphitheater in Oshkosh, WI. You carry an awesome aura with you Mike. Your show was healing just like you mentioned, and the night was a spiritual, magical experience. This is my favorite track and I'm leaning it now on my 12-string. God bless you brother, and carry on shining your light to everyone!
One of the best songs of the Year! OK, and one of the best videos also!! Mike and Margo really pulled out a piece of both musical and theatrical artwork on this one! And don't forget the band.....Great Job!
I hope I can see these two this fall tour. Love you MC and Margo. I really hate I missed Mick Campbell and TDK when Stan was filling in for Matt. But welcome back Matt. I know you had such a cool time touring in Italy with there no 1 rock star!
Cambo we love you buddy. Great job. Awesome to see you guys doing shows With Gvt Mule. 2 of the best 🤙 Bands in the world. Happy for You in the Fleetwood Mac, really think the Knob's is where you belong.
We got tickets to see you and The Knobs in Portland this fall. Too bad The Who will be interrupting the reason we're going to the show. The Gorge is a magical place. Love the duet w Margo and love seeing Stan . Much ❤️
HEARTBREAKER MIKE CAMPBELL’S POIGNANT SONG TO TOM PETTY (song review written 9/1/2022) The new song, "State of Mind", by former Heartbreakers’ lead guitarist and now solo artist Mike Campbell, and featuring vocals from Margo Price, is an ode to the late Tom Petty, a song freighted with Campbell's feelings for him, as heard early on in the lyrics: "And yooou left a hole in my heart / Big enough to drive a truck through". The way he and Price deliver that line is powerful and searing. Overall it's a slow-rolling elegiac rocker, full of great warmth and beauty. The lyrics are simple yet gorgeously wistful, with Petty's Gainesville twang echoed in Campbell's pained voice and words, and Price adding leavening brightness and shimmer. From the jump it's the slow roll of the beat and the warm jangle of guitar that pull you in and tee you up, only to be bowled over by the eventual lyrical "truck driving through". Price takes the lead in the second verse when she sings, "Love is a state of grace / A state of grace". And midway through the song comes a surge of bright horns for the chorus: "Turn this train around / Turn this train around / Turn this train around right now / So I can go back home". In verse 3 they blend their voices again, intoning the sweet and warm audiovisual of "Faith is a rising sun / Is a rising sun". And the verse’s last lines bring a poignant shift in the story, as if Campbell is now addressing a young child: "Dooo you believe that you can live forever? / Dooo you believe anything, my little one?" - a nod to everyone's eventual end and perhaps the artistic immortality of Petty's best music. When Mike Campbell brought Margo Price into his studio to hear the song for the first time, tears started running down her face while listening, because she knew almost immediately who the song was about. As an American girl growing up at the crossroads of prairie and nowhere in rural Illinois in the 1990s, the airwaves of her adolescent days and nights had a lot of Tom Petty - she loved his music, it spoke strongly to her. And now working in the studio 25 years later, she was, in a way, returning a favor. Margo Price will once again be part of the lineup at the annual Farm Aid music festival (I’ll be there), held later this month, this time in North Carolina (Raleigh). Last year she became a member of the Farm Aid board, the only female music artist in that position, joining founders Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp, and also Dave Mathews. She's performed at the festival every year since 2016 (my first year there too), when she told the audience as she took the stage that her parents had lost their farm in the 1980s, during the American farm crisis, the impetus for Farm Aid's start in 1985, and now she was honored and thrilled to be able to help out. Tom Petty, Mike Campbell and the rest of the Heartbreakers were at that first Farm Aid, and the second. And Fourth of July weekend that same year, 1986, was the one and only time that I saw that great band. They were backing Bob Dylan on the historic True Confessions Tour, and the Grateful Dead was added to the bill, and I saw them all at RFK Stadium in D.C. - part of an unforgettable gathering of over one-hundred thousand fans comprising a monumental mass of swirling human joy. Now Petty is gone, and Campbell and Price remain, to sing this heartbreaking song of heartache and love. Love also remains.
Tom would be proud but then again I think Tom always knew how lucky he was yo have Mike Campbell as his guitarist and friend.
mike was tom's lucky rabbit foot and he always delivered the goods.
I like listening to Margo Price and Lucinda Williams; their voices just lift me. Mike sounds so good with them, it's amazing.
I think Tom made that empty space in Tom's life. Tom must have left a hole in Mike's heart, but Mike found this lovely way to fill it. Thanks so much, Mike.
Mike, Mike, Mike. You and he have the same voice, it's wonderful to hear. Added to that is the fact that you are still Mike Campbell, the guitarist that he said was one of the greats, often overlooked, and he was so right. I love watching your videos on youtube, it not only keeps him alive but I love learning more and more about you, Mike Campbell. One of the greats. Beautiful stuff x
Mike Campbell, ich liebe Dein Spiel, Dein Gesang, Deine Musik und ich habe das gute Gefühl Tom Petty sitzt neben Dir und scheint echt glücklich, das Du toll weitermachst. Die Musik ist einfach große Klasse, vor allem mit den Bläsern.
Glad to see Mike Campbell continuing on and doing great work. Tom would be proud.
He’s watching from Heaven❤
