John Mellencamp - Life, Death, Love and Freedom
It always seems to help to have T Bone Burnett as a producer. An example of that is Robert Plants & Allison Krauss. And if you want another example of great production from him it is the most recent work of John Mellencamp. Although it may not be as good as 'Raising Sand' it still is good. If you like the more up-beat John Mellencamp stuff. Than you're out of luck. It's dark and pretty darn depressing. Which is not a bad thing.
Rating: Lyrics: 28/40 (The lyrics match the production dark)
Tunefulness: 38/50 (Mellencamp still sounds pretty good. And the production is also pretty good)
Originality: 3/10 (It's dark .)
Overall: 69/100 (It's good but I was expecting a little more than that)
