John MellencampThe Best That I Could Do 1978-1988
$38.00Call to Order
Heartland rock at its most fist-pumping and rootsy, the sound of small-town America blasting from a porch radio. This decade-spanning collection rounds up the rebellious 'Jack & Diane', the stomping 'Hurts So Good', the defiant 'Pink Houses', and the railing 'Authority Song'. Mellencamp made the everyday feel anthemic, all crunchy guitars and Indiana grit. The essential primer on one of the genre's most stubbornly plainspoken voices.
