Two years after Petty's debut, You're Gonna Get It is another batch of sharp, swaggering rock tunes to hit the record stores recovering the path Petty strode to mega stardom.

The astonishing brilliance of a few tracks on this record seal its fate as a classic Petty album: "Listen to Her Heart" continues his tribute to the jangly guitar style of the Byrds' "I Need to Know" and nails Petty's plaintive singing style and gut delivery (those muscular guitar lines don't hurt either); "Magnolia" sways pleasantly like a summer afternoon with love in the air; and "Too Much Ain't Enough" further mines the gritty sound of a garage band stretching out. "You're Gonna Get It" and "When the Time Comes" are both above-average rockers, with signature Petty vocals that are by some turns threatening and others genteel as well as 12-string guitar chords laden with heavenly abandon.
