On this, the 35th anniversary of Springsteen’s Born in the USA, remember that John Mellencamp’s mid-80s output holds up better. They sang about similar subjects, but the latter’s fiddles and accordions are superior to lame keyboards and big dumb drums.

Seger was always the better singer, but Bruce is the more complete artist. Mellencamp should be content as the #4 in any ranking against Bruce, Petty & Seger. No shame in that.

Greetings from Asbury Park is a great album, better than most of what followed. But he put on a fine live show.
