Song run times vary from the original release.

"During the recording of the album, John Lennon was scheduled to be in the same studio at the same time. Petty was looking forward to meeting him when he came in. The meeting never occurred, as Lennon was murdered before the date of his planned visit to the studio. Petty and the band paid tribute to the slain former Beatle by etching "WE LOVE YOU J.L." in the runout deadwax on early U.S. and Canadian pressings of Hard Promises."

Recorded at Sound City, Van Nuys and at Cherokee Studios, Hollywood, CA.
Some additional recording done at Goodnight, LA.
