6. [Hello CD Listeners](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tf5XgkG0JfI) - Tom Petty

A short, hidden track on Petty’s _Full Moon Fever_ album, only appearing on the CD version, in which he describes that it’s the point in the album where those listening on vinyl or cassette would be getting up to turn the album over, and so, he’s briefly pausing the music on the CD in fairness to those people. While Petty talks, Del Shannon and Jeff Lynne are making farm-animal noises in the background.
