Mellencamp, John Cougar - Uh-huh

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON MERCURY 1983

Mercury 814 450 made in Holland with lyric inner sleeve.

Vinyl EX. Cover NM.

Since American Fool illustrated that John Cougar was becoming an actual songwriter, it's only proper that he reclaimed his actual last name, Mellencamp, for the follow-up, Uh-Huh. After all, now that he had success, he wanted to be taken seriously, and Uh-Huh reflects that in its portraits of brokenhearted life in the Midwest and its rumbling undercurrent of despair. Although his lyrics still have the tendency to be a little too vague, they are more effective here than ever before, as is his music; he might not have changed his style at all -- it's still a fusion of the Stones and Springsteen -- except that he now knows how to make it his own. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Mellencamp
