Tom Petty’s estate releases previously unreleased song "Confusion Wheel"

Tom Petty's Wildflowers & All The Rest box set is slated to arrive next month, and ahead of its release the late singer-songwriter's estate has shared another unreleased track, "Confusion Wheel." The collection features 70 tracks that include the original 15-song album, nine previously unreleased songs and 34 alternate takes.

Producer Rick Rubin recently recalled Petty feeling "haunted" by the unreleased treasure trove of music. "He told me Wildflowers scares him because he's not really sure why it's as good as it is. So it has this haunted feeling for him," he said during the Broken Record podcast. "...Like he loves it, but it's not like he could turn that on again. He couldn't make Wildflowers 2 today. That was the point. 'I can't do this now. This was then, and it was where I was then and it was a prolific period. This is an extension of that moment.'"

Wildflowers & All The Rest is slated for an October 16 release and is available for pre-order HERE. Listen to "Confusion Wheel" and see the full tracklist below.
