A new video of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers performing “Between Two Worlds” has been unearthed. The music video, directed by Justin Kreutzmann, was made for French television and features newly remastered footage of the band performing at the Record Plant in 1982.
The rare footage arrives alongside an upcoming deluxe edition of Petty and the Heartbreakers’ 1982 album Long After Dark. On October 18, a new version of the band’s fifth album will be released. “Between Two Worlds” appears on the album alongside beloved songs like the MTV hit “You Got Lucky,” “Straight Into Darkness,” and “Change of Heart,” which made the Billboard Top 40.
The collection also features 12 rediscovered songs, including seven that have never been released before. The album includes a rendition of “Never Be You,” a song that was a hit for Roseanne Cash; the upbeat “Don’t Make Me Walk The Line”; and “Ways To Be Wicked,” recorded in Denver at Applewood Studios.
The Long After Dark collection is available for pre-order now and will be available in a number of formats beyond streaming. Those include a limited edition, 2LP set with a lithograph, a 3-disc set of 2 CDs, a Blu-ray audio disc, a 2LP in black vinyl, and a 1LP in turquoise vinyl.
“There was some music recorded for Long After Dark that didn’t get on the record, that I thought would’ve made it a better album,” the late Petty once said. “I left off…four things that I liked quite a bit. And probably a few more written that never even got in the door.” Producer Jimmy Iovine, who concluded his three-album collaboration with the band on this album, spoke so highly as to compare it to Bob Dylan: “Long After Dark, we thought we had it. Sounded like Positively Fourth Street, sounded like one of those records, you know. By the way, I think it is!”
