LAPD clarifies it cannot confirm Tom Petty's death

Tom Petty, the rocker best known as the frontman of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, is clinging to life in a Los Angeles hospital, according to TMZ. An earlier report which confirmed the singer's death, and which CBS reported, has since been clarified. CBS News reported information obtained officially from the LAPD about Tom Petty. The LAPD later said it was not in a position to confirm information about the singer and that "initial information was inadvertently provided to some media sources." In that statement, the LAPD also apologized for "any inconvenience in this reporting."

I never knew much of Tom Petty's work apart from the Traveling Wilburys were a smash hit when I was a kid in the 80's.

Thanks for the song Frang as that puts Tom into perspective!
