Ah, that great 80’s sound is alive and well with a previously unreleased tune from Mellencamp’s Scarecrow album. ‘Smart Guys’ will be a part of a super deluxe box set of the remastered album, due out this Friday November 4th. So why release it now? His 1985 album featured classic hits like, ‘Lonely Ol Night’ and ‘Small Town’, and when you listen to ‘Smart Guys’, you get that same feel. Apparently John gave it a C+ back then, hence the reason it was shelved. The video below stands out with a well tattooed teacher. She makes you wanna stay after school for some extra credit~
