Let's get to the point, let's roll another joint: the late, great Tom Petty's solo masterpiece Wildflowers will be revisited in a series of reissues out October 16.

Wildflowers & All The Rest rounds up the original 1994 album alongside several bonus discs of outtakes and rarities. A standard 2CD/3LP edition adds 10 unheard tracks - intended for a much longer edition of the album at the time - while a 4CD/7LP deluxe box adds two volumes of solo home recordings and live cuts. A super deluxe edition adds an additional CD or 2 LPs of alternate recordings, labeled "Finding Wildflowers"; a limited "ultra deluxe" vinyl box includes all 9 LPs plus "an exclusive unique unisex necklace--hand-made by Maria Sarno in a faux suede pouch, an exclusive lyric book with the illustrations by Blaze Ben Brooks, an exclusive 7" of 'You Don't Know How It Feels,' packaged in a custom fabric bag with a metal Wildflowers logo as the closure--designed and made by Los Angeles-based Made Worn." (It's limited to 475 copies and available exclusively at Petty's website. The super deluxe vinyl will also only be sold there as well.)

The sessions to Wildflowers found Petty collaborating for the first of three albums with producer Rick Rubin. Recorded with many of the members of The Heartbreakers (including drummer Steve Ferrone, who'd replace Stan Lynch the following year) as well as several big-name contributors (Ringo Starr sat behind the drum kit for "To Find a Friend," while "Honey Bee" featured vocals by Carl Wilson of The Beach Boys, the album was nonetheless credited to Petty alone. "Rick and I both wanted more freedom than to be strapped into five guys," he later said.

Despite a barrage of personal trials at the time - including the collapse of his first marriage and a subsequent struggle with drug addiction - and a late decision to pare down the running time of the album into a still-respectable 62 minutes, fans and critics felt the material was some of his best. It became Petty's seventh Top 10 album in the U.S., and lead single "You Don't Know How It Feels" reached No. 13 on the Billboard Hot 100. (The track also took home a Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.)

Most significantly, revisiting Wildflowers became one of Petty's most personal, final projects. In 2014, three years before his passing and as he finalized his last album, Hypnotic Eye, Petty described some of the outtakes he found to Rolling Stone including "Somewhere Under Heaven," released as a single in 2015. Gradually, additional songs were released from the vault, including "Lonesome Dave" off the An American Treasure box set - though plans were put on hold until a lawsuit between Petty's daughters, Adria and Annakim, and his widow Dana, was settled in 2019. A demo of "You Don't Know How It Feels" was issued in June.

Wildflowers & All The Rest was curated by Adria, Annakim and Dana Petty in collaboration with Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench of The Heartbreakers and longtime engineer Ryan Ulyate. The deluxe editions feature a new introduction by Rubin, liner notes by David Fricke and track-by-track notes by Jaan Uhelszki, featuring input from Rubin, Ulyate, Campbell, Tench, Ferrone, album engineer Jim Scott and live mixing engineer Robert Scovill. Each format will be available October 16, with pre-order links to both Amazon (and the Petty store-exclusive editions) live now.
