We currently know 4 reviews for "Sad Clowns & Hillbillies" by John Mellencamp. The album received pretty solid reviews among the critics and is one of the better ones this year.
"Sad Clowns & Hillbillies is a solid effort with as many peaks and valleys as southern Indiana."
Paste Magazine
"While Sad Clowns & Hillbillies is a bit of a mixed bag, it's better than all of his other records that bear that mark (Dance Naked, Whenever We Wanted, Rough Harvest, et. al). It puts all his strengths--excellent original songs, unforced arrangements, and (mostly) inspired performances--on full display."
AllMusic
"Carlene Carter duets on five of the 13 songs, notably What Kind Of Man Am I (sung by Sheryl Crow in Ghost Brothers...) and the light-hearted Sugar Hill Mountain (from Ithaca), while elsewhere Mellencamp shines alone--particularly on Sad Clowns (where his voice and lyric hurtles into Tom Waits territory) and All Night Talk Radio."
Classic Rock Magazine
"An album that is not particularly consistent in sound or even sentiment--the worthiness of Easy Target is matched with half-of-the-title track Sad Clowns, a patronising and crankily retro missive on chivalry."
