Love is a Long Road is a really durable song and though I pointed out that it has a few rock tropes in it, they’re not overdone and not dated and I think this song really holds up well in its original recorded form. It’s another song with a very simple structure but with a couple of nice twists and turns in it.

Go watch Barnyard! But also, listen to Sam Elliott’s version here: https://youtu.be/pdyRPjv-G14
If you want to listen to the very first live performance of the song, on January 29, 1990 in Charlotte, you can find it here: https://tinyurl.com/4feb2fj3

A last very special thanks to Paul Zollo. Without his book, Conversations with Tom Petty, this podcast wouldn’t be nearly as much fun to research.
