John Mellencamp

Album reviews

Cuttin' Heads
Columbia (2001)
John Mellencamp has a problem with being called a "Midwestern rocker," and with good cause.

John Mellencamp
Columbia (1998)
On this, John Mellencamp's self-titled debut for Columbia Records after a career with Mercury, the label seems to be allowing the Bloomington, Indiana resident some artistic freedom, letting him take chances many loyal listeners might not expect.

Mr. Happy Go Lucky
Mercury (1996)
Though some might think he will go down in the history books as a footnote to Bruce Springsteen, veteran Indiana rocker John Mellencamp has managed to surprise listeners more than once during his career with his quality songwriting.

Concert reviews

Daley Plaza, Chicago
John Mellencamp dubbed his last real swing through the States the "Rural Electrification Tour," so it's probably safe to call his current impromptu road trip the "Urban Unplugged" tour.
