Free Music Notes for Words & Music: John Mellencamp's Greatest Hits
Free Music Review: Any lover of music should "Check It Out".
Hit: 4 Stars
It seems alot of artists in recent years have released a 2-disc collection that improves upon their older single disc ones, and that's just what Mellencamp has done here. Not only is the first disc alone longer than what was on "The Best That I Could Do", but this also obviously includes more than twice as much music. What pleases me most besides the addition of his post-1988 work here, is the inclusion of both "Rumbleseat" and "Rain On The Scarecrow" from his excellent 1985 album. In fact the only tracks I really miss are "Play Guitar", and the 1997 song "Without Expression" from the last collection. Otherwise this is all the great american rock a "Mellen-head" could want from this "Pop Singer". Free Music Review: sorry to say, I am a bit disappointed

This CD has a fair amount of relatively tame covers. I always have considered John's originality to be one of his great strengths. I did not expect a "greatest of" CD to have so many covers. To me it reduces the value and enjoyment of the CD. Check out the track list before you buy...Free Music Review: Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Resume
Hit: 5 Stars
John Mellencamp with this collection has issued his Rock n Roll hall of Fame resume . After listening to this collection ( and you NEVER have to skip a track ) it is confounding how he has yet not been elected to be enshrined.Free Music Review: The Best "Best of" Yet!!
Hit: 5 Stars
While it is painful to see record labels re-release music that we already own, this collection spans Mellencamp's entire career. The tracks sound crisper and cleaner than the "Best That I Could Do" best-of compilation released a few years ago. The third DVD Bonus disc makes this a set worth owning. Free Music Review: The Best

Admittedly I first noticed John because of his looks. When I was a kid I saw him on TV and decided he was my ideal man - and I love a guy who can dance. I soon found out there was a lot more to him than that - he wrote great songs, unbelievably catchy radio anthems, and was a terrific performer as well. He has also grown into a great writer - his lyrics are some of my very favorites and I can totally relate to many of the things he writes about - he has never lost his touch with the fans. Only the truly greats can put out a CD of this quality - every song is a winner. I saw a show on the spring leg of his current tour and had a blast - one of the most fun concerts you'll ever see and John gives his all.
