John Mellencamp is one of the artists who best embodies American rock, alongside Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, and Bob Seger. His 1985 album 'Scarecrow' is certainly one of the finest gems of this rock rooted in a tradition close to the blues, country, and rock and roll.
The album has been remixed and remastered and is being reissued in a deluxe format. The bonus features include 2 unreleased songs, rough mixes, the album, demos, two B-sides, and an unreleased cover of 'Shama Lama Ding Dong,' originally performed by the fictional band Otis Day and the Knights in the 1978 film National Lampoon's Animal House.
