Growing Up In Public: JOHNCOUGAR MELLENCAMP'S Lonely Jubilee
You’d think that John Cougar Mellencamp would be living a rock ’n’ roll version of the proverbial life of Riley. Two years ago, Scarecrow took him to heights even he probably thought were unreachable. And now there’s The Lonesome Jubilee, the second smash album in a row that has not only the public raving about him, but the critics as well—some of those same critics who blasted him relentlessly after he first began pursuing his rock ’n’ roll muse well over a decade ago.
