History
As Mellencamp's guitarist, Crane contributed to twenty Billboard charted singles, including Ain't Even Done With The Night, Hurts So Good, Jack and Diane, Hand to Hold on To, I Need a Lover, Crumblin' Down, Pink Houses, Rain on the Scarecrow, Small Town, Lonely Ol' Night, Rumbleseat, R.O.C.K in the U.S.A., Paper in Fire, Check It Out, Cherry Bomb, Martha Say, Jackie Brown, and Pop Singer. Though not often recognized as a songwriter, Crane did receive a co-writer credit for Play Guitar on the Uh-Huh album.
After the release of Big Daddy, Larry Crane left the Mellencamp band due to his impression that "he and his band mates were underpaid." Since leaving the band, Crane has launched a solo career. During his thirty-plus year career, he has also toured and recorded with several influential musicians, including John Prine, Steve Earle, Bonnie Raitt, Rosanne Cash, Carl Perkins, James McMurtry, Mitch Ryder, Lou Reed, and John Fogerty. He has also collaborated with legendary producer Bob Johnston.
