That’s because the New Boss is the same as the Old Boss.
I can’t remember WHO told me that though.

He found out that life in Starland Vocal Band land aint easy street Starland Vocal Band co-founder Bill Danoff is a talented musician and good song writer. He and his wife got their break as the back up singers called Fat City and were co-writers of Take me home country roads. Danoff worked for John Denver several years before forming Starland.

but the music? sure sucks. Not if you dig for it. There's never been more good music readily available. You just won't hear any of it on the radio.

Anything that keeps Bruce Springsteen’s music off the airwaves and out of homes is alright by me. Let him serve as Chris Christie’s butler.

The “cougar” name has taken on a new meaning, so I assume that is why he dropped it.

FWIW, the story I heard was that his manager, or the record label, seemed to think “cougar” sounded better than “mellencamp” and since he was young and naive, he took their advice. As he became more successful, he eventually was able to drop the stage name.
