Tom Petty’s closet in Hall of Fame
It’s not often a rock star opens up his bedroom closet to the world.
Tom Petty did and the results are on display at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, which is showcasing Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in an exhibit that opened Friday.
When representatives from the rock hall visited Petty’s Spanish-style ranch in Malibu in April looking for artifacts, he pulled out a flowered shirt he wore in the video for his biggest chart hit, “Free Fallin’,” and the gray jacket he wore as a member of the Traveling Wilburys. He also produced a nylon bag of notebooks filled with handwritten lyrics.
