Free Music Review: One of Mellencamp's Finest
Hit: 5 Stars
The first album to drop the moniker "Cougar," John Mellencamp's Whenever We Wanted is a finely-crafted heartland rock album. Released in 1991, Whenever We Wanted was Mellencamp's last top-10 album until Freedom Road hit the shelves in late 2006.
I can remember first "hearing" the song "Get a Leg Up" on VH-1 while in college. A sassy rocker, it makes a fine centerpiece to the album, reaching the top 20 in Billboard's Hot 100 list. "Again Tonight" was also a top-40 hit.
Perhaps my favorite song was "Love and Happiness," one of the harder rockers on the album, reaching #5 on the Mainstream rock list. As a bonus track, a re-mix of this song is included in the remastered CD. While I prefer the original, this one is also well done.
While it may be on the downside of Mellencamp's peak of popularity in the 1980's and early 1990s, Mellencamp continued to refine his songwriting and songs, ending up with a fun and entertaining album. I loved it then, and I love it even more now. To me, it ranks right up there with Scarecrow as one of Mellencamp's best efforts.
