Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers have got their mojo working, at least if this exclusive sneak cut from their new album Mojo tells the tale (on sale June 15).

"The Trip to Pirate's Cove" is a bluesy-mellow excursion where roadtrip buddies "party with the motel maids" before life takes some unexpected detours.

This song, from the band's first new record in eight years, has a relaxed yet muscular vibe with understated, plaintive vocals, cool keyboard textures and a spooky mellow guitar solo. Yes, that whole Heartbreakers enchilada.

We're ready for the rest of the CD right now, how about you?
