Description
The Last DJ is the eleventh studio album by American rock band Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. The title track, "Money Becomes King," "Joe" and "Can't Stop the Sun" are all sharp attacks on the greediness of the music industry.
A "limited edition" digipack version of the album was also released, including a DVD of music videos and other footage shot during the album's production.
The album reached #9 on the Billboard 200 aided by the single "The Last DJ" which hit #22 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks in 2002. As of 2010, The Last DJ had sold 353,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
In an episode of The Simpsons entitled "How I Spent My Strummer Vacation", Homer receives instructions in song-writing lessons from Tom Petty himself, and in the original airing the track "The Last DJ" can be heard playing over the radio in the final scene. The song was changed for syndication.
The song "Dreamville" is played at the end of the DVD that was released to commemorate the 2002 Anaheim Angels' World Series win.
The album also marks the return of original Heartbreaker Ron Blair on bass guitar, replacing his own replacement, the ailing Howie Epstein. His return was late in the recording process, however, and Petty and Campbell contribute most of the bass work themselves.
