 | The Best of John Hiatt [Read More ...]
Description: John Hiatt has had such extraordinary success as a songwriter that, even if you haven't followed his career as a performer, you'll find you know most of these songs by virtue of their hit cover versions. Bonnie Raitt ("A Thing Called Love"), Suzy Bogguss ("Drive South"), Rosanne ... |
 | Bring the Family [Read More ...]
Description: Even John Hiatt's most ardent fans weren't ready for this masterpiece to be dropped in their laps in 1987. Hiatt had spent most of the 70's and 80's playing pick-a-style, bouncing from southern country rock to Elvis Costello redux and back again. With Family, though, he pared awa... |

 | Anthology [Read More ...]
Description: To paraphrase a musical icon, John Hiatt has been a poet, a pauper, and a pawn. He also wrote "Riding with the King." What he hasn't been is a household name. That's a shame, because Hiatt has forged one of the most consistently satisfying canons of any contemporary American sing... |

 | John Hiatt - Greatest Hits: The A&M Years '87-'94 [Read More ...]
Description: Unlike Capitol's 1998 release, The Best of John Hiatt, which contained several inferior re-recordings of older tunes, this Hiatt best-of contains the original versions of most of his best-known tunes. The 18-track collection contains healthy dollops of 1987's Bring the Family (wi... |
 | Slow Turning [Read More ...]
Description: John Hiatt was feeling strong after the success of 1987's masterstroke Bring the Family, so he rocked out a little more on the joyful, confident Slow Turning. His Louisiana quartet, the Goners, spearheaded by slide guitar innovator Sonny Landreth, made each hot tune ("Drive South... |
 | Perfectly Good Guitar [Read More ...]
Blue Telescope alone is worth the price of the CD:I've got several Hiatt CD's, all good. I just had to buy more work of his after hearing "Blue Telescope" from this CD. Beautiful lyrics, great production. |
 | The Tiki Bar Is Open [Read More ...]
Description: For much of this album, his 16th in 26 years, Hiatt reunites with his best band, the Goners, and takes a giant leap back to his still-hungry days as a jag-edged, Costello-esque rocker while hewing to the soulful, blues-based songwriting he perfected on 1987's Bring the Famil... |
 | Crossing Muddy Waters [Read More ...]
Description: Two and a half decades into a career that's never delivered the stardom forecast by legions of champions, John Hiatt has settled into a niche that's about as comfortable as a maturing singer-songwriter could ask for. No longer a major-label priority, Hiatt has hooked up with the ... |

 | Stolen Moments [Read More ...]
Review: I Often Wonder...:I often wonder why Hiatt isn't heralded as one of the best musicians ever. It seems like he has a solid, respectable fan base, but still not mainstream acknowledgement. Now, I'm sure Hiatt doesn't care about being mainstream (his music proves it), but I wish h... |

 | Bring the Family [Read More ...]
Review: DVD Audio Breathes New Life Into A Classic:When I first heard "Bring The Family" on vinyl upon its release in 1987, I was impressed not only by the songs of John Hiatt but also by the crack band he had assembled. Ry Cooder's knack for adding the right, often understated guitar to... |
 | Slug Line [Read More ...]
Review: 3.5 Stars for this "Angry Young Man"-styled effort:I read about John Hiatt in a magazine and I snatched up this release after finding it for cheap. The publication claimed that this was marketed as a "US Costello." To me, it seems like that description works.
The album itself is... |
 | Y'All Caught? The Ones That Got Away 1979-1985 [Read More ...]
A Great CD:John Hiatt isn't very well known as a singer and performer. He should be. This is a truly outstanding collection that I never get tired of hearing. |
 | Riding with the King [Read More ...]
Description: John Hiatt has had a long, schizophrenic career. He's been a singer-songwriter, a new waver, an AOR dinosaur, a country rocker, and an adult-contemporary powerhouse. Throughout, his songwriting has been admirable. The production here is sometimes tricky, a tad bombastic, a bit ... |
 | Two Bit Monsters [Read More ...]
John Hiatt is one of the greatest song writers to date.:This album is great start to finish. Hiatt started getting radio play from this record .This is his 4th album (when he rocked)befor he retired to the Blues. |
