Tom Petty is already looking ahead to next year, revealing his hopes for the release of a new expanded version of his 1995 release Wildflowers followed by a subsequent tour.

"I want to take the Heartbreakers and whoever else I need to reproduce every sound in a big way," he tells reporters.

"That album was really about sound in a big way. I would like to go out there and perform the entire album as it was originally conceived with all of the songs."

Though he says he is interested in including some previously unreleased material on Wildflowers re-release, he says he doesn't know what the final outcome will be.

"At one point the label really just wanted to put it out as a standalone album," he says. "And then there's the point of view where they want to put both records together.

There's also the point of view that wants the box set with the demos and all that. I don't see that as much fun, but other people do."
Petty is currently on the road touring with his band Mudcrutch.
