Entertainment WeeklyHis most consequential songs in years. [11 Oct 2002, p.83]
-
Earnest and straightforward, as rock and roll should be.... The Last DJ is clearly an expression of what Tom Petty feels right now, and his honesty -- coupled with his talent -- is revitalizing.
-
A little more electric guitar would've helped, but these tales of capitalism gone amok are worth checking out.
-
The Last DJ is quintessential Petty, by turns strident and starry-eyed.
-
Petty's thesis is strong, but his argument falters too often.
-
Tom's not quite so lovable when he's preaching his anti-non-Petty doctrine in a series of songs that often don't rise above the level of mediocrity themselves.
-
Throughout The Last DJ, Petty sounds utterly lost -- and instead of liberating him like it did in the past, it paralyzes him, boxing him into a corner where he can't draw on his strengths. It's the first true flop in a career that, until now, had none.

gregfNov 26, 2002I saw Tom and bought his album. He still has it. I would recommend this album to any one who still has the balls to be a rebel
