| Description | With some success under his belt, Mellencamp had enough clout to force his record company to add his real surname, Mellencamp, to his stage moniker. The first album recorded under his new identity, 1983''s Uh-Huh, went Top 10 and spawned the singles ''Pink Houses'' and ''Crumblin'' Down.'' During the recording of Uh-Huh, Mellencamp''s backing band settled on the lineup it would retain for the next several years: Kenny Aronoff on drums and percussion, Larry Crane and Mike Wanchic on guitars, Toby Myers on bass and John Cascella on keyboards. In 1988, Rolling Stone magazine called this version of Mellencamp''s band "one of the most powerful and versatile live bands ever assembled." In 1985, Mellencamp released Scarecrow, which peaked at No. 2 and spawned five Top 40 singles; it was the first album he recorded at his own recording studio, jokingly dubbed "Belmont Mall," located in Belmont, Indiana and built in 1984. Mellencamp''s next LP, 1987''s The Lonesome Jubilee, was also recorded at Belmont and in the wake of the recording came the fascinating studio session contained on this CD. |
