Anthology: Through the Years album for sale by Tom Petty / Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers was released Oct 31, 2000 on the MCA (USA) label. ANTHOLOGY: THROUGH THE YEARS includes the previously unreleased "Surrender" and "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" (with Stevie Nicks). Anthology: Through the Years CD music is a 2-disc set with 34 songs.



For the fan that wants more than the superb single-disc Greatest Hits yet doesn't want to delve into actual albums or the exhaustive, rarities-heavy box set Playback, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers and MCA Records offered the double-disc Anthology: Through the Years in the fall of 2000. This set basically offers all the singles and album rock radio favorites, with a couple of odd selections here and there and one new song, "Surrender." There are a few omissions - "Make It Better (Forget About Me)" isn't here, for instance - but not enough to really be noticeable, especially since this consolidates the bulk of Petty's great songs and plays very, very well. Greatest Hits might have a slight edge to Anthology because of its conciseness, but this double-disc set illustrates that Petty's catalog was deeper than just the hits.

Stephen Thomas Erlewine - All Music Guide



Entertainment Weekly (12/1/00, p.102) - "...It's hard to imagine a better summary of the Heartbreakers' 25-year career." - Rating: A

Q (8/01, p.154) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Conatins most [of his essential tracks], and more, including '81s Stevie Nicks duet..."

Uncut (2/01, p.80) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...A century of great American music from a great American institution..."



Anthology: Through the Years is a double compilation album featuring the best of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. It contains a new song, "Surrender", written by Petty during the You're Gonna Get It! sessions, but recorded in 2000 especially for this release. "Surrender" is also the last studio recording of Howie Epstein before his death. Anthology: Through the Years was released on October 31, 2000, and would mark the lowest chart-positioning on the Billboard 200 for the band at #87. However, in November 2006, the album was certified Gold (equilvalent to 500,000 copies sold) by the RIAA.
