Tom Leadon is an American musician. He was an original member of Tom Petty's former band, Mudcrutch. He is the brother of Bernie Leadon, formerly of the Eagles. ==Biography== In high school, Leadon was a member of the Epics in Gainesville, Florida, where he met Petty. Leadon was the lead guitarist and Petty played bass. Soon after forming Mudcrutch, with Randall Marsh on drums, the group added a second lead guitarist, Mike Campbell. Leadon and Campbell shared lead guitar solos during Mudcrutch's live shows in and around Gainesville, and also on their recording of "Up in Mississippi". Leadon left Mudcrutch in 1972 and moved to Los Angeles, following in the footsteps of his older brother Bernie, who had recently formed the Eagles with Randy Meisner, Glenn Frey, and Don Henley. Leadon also played bass in Linda Ronstadt's band, and in 1976 joined the country-rock band Silver, who had a top 40 hit the same year with "Wham-Bam". In 1975, the Eagles recorded one of Leadon's original songs, "Hollywood Waltz", and released it on their ''One of These Nights'' LP. The final version of the song is credited to Tom Leadon, Bernie Leadon, Frey, and Henley. Later that year Buck Owens released his own version. Leadon later became a guitar teacher in Nashville.〔 In 2007, Petty reformed Mudcrutch and recorded a CD with Leadon, Campbell, Marsh, and Benmont Tench. The CD was released on April 15, 2008.〔 In his memoir, ''Conversations with Tom Petty'', Petty credits Leadon with inspiring him to move to L.A. to try to make it as a musician. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tom Leadon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
