Tom Petty Wildflowers Drum Sound

OK, I'm recording a band on Saturday and they reference the Steve Ferrone drum sound on Wildflowers. A great reference for sure. I know they don't have Steve Ferrone, but their drummer is excellent. Do any of you guys know some specifics on this drum sound? Specifically the snare- type, tuning, micing-top and bottom mics, probably. Any EQ/compression tricks applied individually to the snare? Mics used overall? Room? I'd love to hear from someone who knows!

Joe Barresi?
David Bianco?
Richard Dodd?
Steve Holroyd?
Jim Scott?
Jeff Sheehan

Thanks for any info.
