WEBSITE EXCLUSIVE - WATCH JOHN PERFORM HIS CURRENT FAVORITE BLUES SONG When John taped A&E's Private Sessions With Lynn Hoffman in December he warmed up for the session by playing a song called "Delia" first recorded by Blind Willie McTell 71 years ago as part of producer Alan Lomax's sessions for the Library of Congress. John recently raved about the song to Rolling Stone Online. We have John's solo acoustic performance of the gripping song on the homepage of Mellencamp.com. Watch it today!

The show was picked as the best of the year by the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, and also by AntiMusic.com's Anthony Kuminski who wrote "John Mellencamp's latest concert tour is full of American fools, dreamers, saints, sinners, and above all else survivors. For over two hours, Mellencamp shined a light on these characters in what is more than his best concert tour in nearly two decades, but without question, the best concert I experienced in all of 2010..."
