I am so happy folks are still enjoying John's live shows. For me his life shows in the mid eighties to early nineties was the best in Rock n Roll. And there were a lot of great musicians on the scene. In my humble opinion his band was hitting its peak led by Larry Crane and Kenny Arnoff. It really was special. Check it out during the 1990 Farm Aid. I recall my 90 year old mother sitting down and listening to the show. She looked over at me after the set and said " Now I can see why you like him so much" First time she had ever seen him live. God Bless you Mom , you were so cool. lol

Men are usually upheld for aging well. John Mellencamp is the exception. He said in an interview that his lifelong habit of smoking enhances his singing voice. Not anymore.
@RetroSoulGirl8 жыл бұрын
+questianna Lol I agree. His voice is not that... great. But I still love him and his music so I will continue to see him live while he's still around. He sounds WAY better in person I must say. And it really depends on the song too. I think he said that the smoking enhanced his voice as a joke... because everybody knows how horrible smoking is. Bob Seger is another example of a classic rocker with a bad habit of smoking. I've seen him live, too. He ain't soundin' too bright either. He's a little better sounding than Mellencamp though, and I think that's because Seger has like a 30 piece band to back him up. I mean I love both artists but with the recent deaths of Glenn Frey and David Bowie, I'm really getting desperate to keep all these rockers while we have 'em.
@matts42408 жыл бұрын
+Mr.Sickboy Mellencamp never had the same strength live since the heart attack, which I know was long ago. Between that and the normal decline in vocal range you're going to get as you age, plus the smoking, you get what you have now with Mellencamp. Sad, but you really have to take care of your vocal cords if you want to hold up into your 50s and 60s.
@RetroSoulGirl8 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I that's true. I know he has cut down his smoking a LOT since that heart attack though. He said on good days he smokes 2 cigs, and on bad days he smokes about a pack. (Better than the past, I think he used to smoke like 2 packs, I don't know how he's not dead lol) But he does eat so much better now and he exercises a lot more. That's probably why he's still alive. He's just addicted... he said he's tried quitting a million times. He also seems quite educated in cigarettes and what they do to your body in some interviews I've seen. I don't know, I guess it's just... bad luck that he's addicted. I mean everybody in the world has tried to get him to stop. I know he wants to stop too. This is exactly why I will never smoke.
@questianna8 жыл бұрын
My belief is vocalists should retire before their voice declines...at least continue to create and produce music, but stop singing. Sheena Easton is another example.

I don't particularly care, it's their voice, they can do what they want with it. I don't think Mellencamp's voice is all that bad. It just is different. You honestly can barely even tell his voice is different when you're actually there at one of his concerts.

It always has been super low or non-existent in the mix. I think it just gives him something to do with his hands and rock along with the others. He’s the first to admit that he’s a shitty guitar player. When he plays acoustic, it’s live and...not surprisingly, it sounds like shit. It serves his music well, though, and he can hold it down.
