Tom Petty is pissed.

** There's a great interview in Rolling Stone where rocker Tom Petty takes on radio, the record companies, TV and even music artists themselves and demands a firmer moral grounding.

Tom Petty's determined, sometimes defiant attitude has collided with the music business throughout the years. ... That same spirit is alive and well on Petty's latest album, The Last DJ, which takes a hard look at the lack of moral grounding in the music business. The title track has kicked up considerable controversy, with some radio stations seeing the song as a slap in the face and banning it. But Petty is not just biting the hand that feeds him. Music is only the beginning of what's pissing him off these days. "The Last DJ is a story about morals more than the music business," he says. "It's really about vanishing personal freedoms."
