Ghosted Road (Jake Thistle)

<p>Welcome to the first "Non Petty" bonus episode folks. I think these episodes might focus on slightly-less or smaller artists who either I listen to and other people may not or are close to me in one way or another. The timing of Jake's first full studio-released single was perfect as I was thinking about doing this for the past few weeks. With Tom’s music, I have an invaluable resource in Paul Zollo’s superb book Conversations With Tom Petty, in which we hear Tom discuss his songs in his own words. So, to complement this episode, I figured I’d go straight to the source and ask him a bunch of questions about the song so that I could share his thoughts directly with you in the episode. As always, Jake was just incredibly helpful and happy to go into detail about the things I was interested in, so a massive thanks as always to him for a) adding to my library of excellent music and b) for being generous enough to share his thoughts.</p><br><p>Here's the link to the song (and music video): <a href="https://youtu.be/Al0K3BZJR9U" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/Al0K3BZJR9U</a> </p><br><p>Here's Jake's first Youtube post (how cute is this!): <a href="https://youtu.be/urd0IJwKG2U" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/urd0IJwKG2U</a> </p><br><p>Here's links to our live stream: <a href="https://youtu.be/txdfp2gTCUw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/txdfp2gTCUw</a> and Jake's Interpretations: <a href="https://youtu.be/pTIWCDHC1BY" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/pTIWCDHC1BY</a> </p><br><p>And if you want to see Jake at the 2019 All Star weekend: <a href="https://youtu.be/Uoz45JP1TFs" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/Uoz45JP1TFs</a></p><br><p>If you are able to donate financially to humanitarian aid relief efforts in Ukraine, the Red Cross is coordinating a large-scale effort which you can contribute to by visiting their website here: <a href="https://donate.redcross.ca/page/100227/donate/1" rel="
