Big Daddy was John Cougar Mellencamp's last album to be released under that name, a combination of his real name and his original stage name of Johnny Cougar. The album peaked at No. 7 on the Billboard 200 and contained the singles Pop Singer (No. 15 Hot 100, No. 2 Rock) and Jackie Brown (No. 48 Hot 100, No. 20 Rock). Like The Lonesome Jubilee, Big Daddy is folk-inspired as violins and fiddles (among other instruments) are significantly utilized on a number of tracks. The album's lyrics largely take a serious tone and the album as a whole is regarded by some as Mellencamp's most reflective.
