The family of Tom Petty have shared a previously unreleased song from the late musician. The track is called ‘Confusion Wheel’ and is set to appear on the forthcoming Wildflowers reissue.
Petty helmed the track back in 1994. The new reissue, Wildflowers and All the Rest is a five-CD or nine-LP box set, set for release on October 16th.
The Wildflower recording sessions saw Tom Petty, Rick Rubin and Mike Campbell produce enough material for a double-album of 25 songs. However, at the advice of the label, Petty trimmed it down to a single disc — with the unused songs either appearing on the She’s the One soundtrack or archived.
Restoring Wildflower to what it should have been was on Petty’s mind before his death in October 2017. “I broke through to something else. My personal life came crashing down, and it derailed me for a while. But I was at the top of my game during that record,” Petty mused.
