Origins 1971-1978 will be available in a 5LP box set, a 4CD box set and an uber deluxe edition, each with Blu-ray and DVD. The centerpiece of the vinyl editions is an 88-page fanzine featuring liner notes by David Fricke and Bud Scoppa, track-by-track annotations from the original band, complete album credits for the first two albums, archival photos and memorabilia, polaroids, postcards, collectibles and more.

No Sleep Til L.A. will be available as a stand-alone LP, CD and limited-edition Zoetrope. More than a rarities compilation, it is a 12-track document of Tom Petty becoming Tom Petty—tracing the years between Mudcrutch's earliest recordings and the formation of the Heartbreakers. Seven of the tracks have never been released before. Five more tracks appear here in new, hi-res mixes. The LP will also be available in a limited edition “Galaxy" color variant. A Zoetrope version of the record will be available on November 20.
“Parade of Loons,” a previously unheard Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers track from 1978, is out now—listen
HERE. A new music video goes into an animated world of Heartbreakers fandom, directed by Peter Sluszka and starring Iain Armitage of Young Sheldon fame.
Origins 1971–1978 includes metallic limited-edition versions of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ debut album and their 1978 follow-up, You’re Gonna Get It!.
Each track has been newly mixed and remastered from the original multi-track tapes, including 50th-anniversary editions of the band's first two albums, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and You're Gonna Get It!, by longtime producer and engineer Ryan Ulyate. Both editions feature extended versions of eleven tracks, including “American Girl” and “Breakdown.”
Live from the Record Plant 1977 features a broadcast released in its entirety for the first time. It was recorded for San Francisco's KSAN-FM at the Record Plant in Sausalito. This high-fidelity recording includes a guest appearance by the legendary Al Kooper.
The Cut Out Bin gathers five tracks that show Petty working as a solo artist alongside session musicians—including Leon Russell—before the Heartbreakers.
The band's 1978 performance on the BBC’s The Old Grey Whistle Test in the UK has restored audio by Ryan Ulyate and is now available for the first time in high definition. BBC host Bob Harris, who wrote an essay for the Blu-ray booklet, shares: “[It was] one of the greatest performances we had ever seen by a band at the top of their game. They played music from another planet to a room packed with manic fans, in one of the most iconic venues in the world. It was an experience so powerful that five decades later we could still remember every chord, every song, every solo.”
The DVD captures the band's live performance on the BBC program The Old Grey Whistle Test, and a Blu-ray disc featuring the complete collection of all 51 songs in high-res stereo, Atmos and 5.1 immersive mixes rounds out the set.
