The Tom Petty Estate and UMe have released a music video for a newly extended and remixed version of “Fooled Again (I Don’t Like It),” timed to what would have been Petty’s 76th birthday. Directed by Alan Bibby, who also made the “Wildflowers” video, the clip reworks footage from the Heartbreakers’ 1978 appearance on the BBC’s The Old Grey Whistle Test, which the band’s label describes as a breakthrough UK performance.

The track is part of Origins 1971-1978, a box set marking the 50th anniversary of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, due November 6 via UMe. The collection remixes the band’s self-titled 1976 debut and 1978 follow-up You’re Gonna Get It! from the original multitrack tapes, with longtime producer Ryan Ulyate overseeing the new mixes. It will be available in 5LP, 4CD and deluxe configurations, each including a Blu-ray and DVD, along with an 88-page fanzine featuring liner notes from David Fricke and Bud Scoppa.

The set also includes previously unreleased material such as the album No Sleep Til L.A., a KSAN-FM radio broadcast from 1977 featuring Al Kooper, and a collection of early solo recordings Petty made before forming the Heartbreakers. The release follows other recent 50th-anniversary activities from the estate, including a Lifetime Achievement Award presented to the band at the Americana Awards and a photo exhibition at the Morrison Hotel Gallery in Los Angeles.

Toronto-born, Los Angeles-based artist Nicole Simone has released her debut full-length album, Circles, via Soul Spazm. The singer-songwriter, who splits her time between the two cities, made the record while dealing with the Los Angeles wildfires, which forced her to evacuate and spend a month in Arizona.

According to the announcement, Circles explores themes of liminality across relationships and places, with cities including London, Barcelona and Los Angeles figuring into the songwriting. The title track, written at her kitchen counter, became the album’s anchor point, and Simone says the record marks less a reinvention than a return to her artistic identity. Standout tracks include “Chateau,” inspired by a view of the Chateau Marmont from her apartment roof and described as an homage to Interpol and The Strokes, and “Suit Undone,” which nods to Crowded House.

The album was produced by Billy Lefler and tracked at Death Star Records, with live drumming and vintage instrumentation. Simone’s dog Indie, a rescue from the charity she founded, Redemption Paws, was present for every recording session and died the week the album was released. Outside of music, Simone is also a filmmaker and writer, and Redemption Paws says it has rescued more than 4,000 dogs and contributed to changes in Canadian federal animal welfare law.
