The Tom Petty Estate has shared previously unreleased video footage of a cover of The Troggs’ classic “Wild Thing” performed by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers at the Los Angeles-based studio The Record Plant in 1982.

The Justin Kreutzmann-directed video, with newly remastered audio, features footage of the band’s performance at The Record Plant, filmed for the French TV program, Houba Houba, alongside never-before-seen bonus footage originally captured by Cameron Crowe for his 1983 film, Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party.

The film, which has been restored and released for the first time in more than 40 years, is now streaming on Paramount+.

The “Wild Thing” clip follows The Record Plant videos of “Keeping Me Alive,” “Finding Out” and “Stories We Could Tell.”

“Wild Thing” is one of the many highlights from the recently released Deluxe Edition of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers classic 1982 album, Long After Dark.
