About Let Me Up (I've Had Enough)

Let Me Up (I've Had Enough) (styled on the cover with quotation marks) is the seventh studio album by the American band Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, released in 1987. It features the most songwriting collaborations between Petty and lead guitarist Mike Campbell out of any Petty album. It is also the first album not to feature then-former bassist Ron Blair on any tracks. The Heartbreakers' approach when starting to work on the album in 1986 was to make it sound like a live recording. This technique was in marked contrast to the heavy studio production on the band's previous album, Southern Accents, and was influenced by touring as Bob Dylan's backing band. Let Me Up (I've Had Enough) is also notable for being the only previous studio album not represented on Petty's 1993 Greatest Hits album, even though the single "Jammin' Me" (co-written with fellow Traveling Wilbury Bob Dylan) was No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks for four weeks, and No. 18 on the Hot 100. "Jammin' Me" was later included on the compilation album Anthology: Through the Years more »
