Freedom’s Road

John Mellencamp
Universal Republic

One and a half stars

Minus a little variation, this record sounds like the same old Mellencamp: songs about America and the rural life. Just play his greatest hits record and don’t waste your money on this.

Sounds like: John Fogerty, John Mellencamp

Thanks for not going along with the concert reviewer, Jeff Napier, who thought his show was great. I was psyched for the show, but disappointed. Just because he's from Indiana and I love his older works would I recommend his shows or CDs if they suck. He's turning into an old bore and leaving his stash of great songs out of his concerts. He preaches to much on stage and is putting out music as fast as Stephen King puts out novels with the same quality - none. I'm still a fan, just one who won't being paying him to entertain me.
