5 out of 5 stars Does it work? Yes, oddly enough it does!.......2007-07-21

I am a dyed-in-the-wool Mellencamp fan and I have been since "American Fool" came out. Fans like me could either love projects like this, or absolutely hate them and view them like a desecration. The attitude taken torwards the project has a lot to do with it and this album has taken a respectful attitude torwards Mellencamp's work.

The songs have been adapted for String Quartet but have not been radically altered - you can sing right along with them if you'd like. Most have been thoughtfully chosen - for example, if it featured a strong fiddle component, such as "Paper in Fire" than it was worked in to the album.

"Peaceful World" is achingly beautiful in this adaptation. "Small Town" has a more melancholy tone than the original song, but it is not at all inapproriate. It is also quite beautiful and it is respectful reinterpretation of this anthem to small town life.

The only duds in the group are "Hurts So Good" and "Jack and Diane." Unlike the other songs which seem to have been carefully chosen for their string quarted friendliness, these had to have been chosen because they are two Mellencamp standards - you cannot have a collection of his work without them. Heck, the first song I cued up was "Jack and Diane". It just did not translate well.

So, final grade: A-. Most are strong, two are tremendous, two are weak.

If you are a true Mellencamp fan (a Mellenhead, if you will) this one is one to pick up.

                  If you've ever heard the song "Cherry Bomb" by the Runaways, you know that it is a good song. However, in my personal opinion, the cover of "Cherry Bomb" by 1 + 1 is even better. I recommend this to fans of grrl rock or anyone wanting an update of the classic song.
