  1. What gives it some distinction is that there's a freshness to the music, largely dervied from its quick recording, a quality that has been lacking in his records for many years now, arguably since Big Daddy.
  2. Trouble No More is good but it's never really all that exciting.

    If you really want to hear folk-blues played with rock'n'roll attitude then go back to Boomer's Story or Into The Purple Valley. [Oct 2003, p.111]

    This recording is a great blues/folk covers album by an American icon. I can't believe I found it in the "Overtsock" section at BMG This recording is a great blues/folk covers album by an American icon. I can't believe I found it in the "Overtsock" section at BMG Music Service. His last last song "To Washington" is more appropriate today than it was in 2003. Mellencamp rocks!!! Full Review »

    I guess you either love or hate his stuff. Being from Indiana he does not represent what I like in music, so I won't buy it.
