A new video for Tom Petty‘s previously unreleased 1992 song “Drivin’ Down To Georgia” premiered today. “Drivin’ Down To Georgia” initially appeared on last year’s Wildflowers & All The Rest, an expanded version of the late musician’s 1994 album, Wildflowers. The song is also featured on the standalone Finding Wildflowers (Alternate Version).
Finding Wildflowers (Alternate Version) consists of 16 alternate takes, long cuts and extended versions of studio recordings Petty worked on with band members and co-producers Rick Rubin and Mike Campbell as Tom was putting Wildflowers together. Ryan Ulyate produced the new collection after listening to 245 reels of 24-track tape from the sessions.
