John Cougar "American Fool" cassette tape
Not Cougar Mellencamp. Not Mellencamp. This is the old testament. This is “Jack and Diane” and “Hurts So Good.” These are songs that you knew were kind of cheesy even then but you loved Springsteen so much and this was as close as you’d get to another Springsteen and, plus, it sounded great. Plus Cougar is a cassette guy. Mellencamp had CD energy.
