Customer Review: John Hiatt's voice is not for everyone. Hoarse, strained, weathered...his voice is a reflection of his life which, for me, is summed up in what is one of my favorite CD's of 2008. After 2005's "Master of Disaster" which didn't add much to my all-time favorite John Hiatt list, I was skeptical... more info
Customer Review: Hiatt never sounded more gut-wrenchingly 'authentic' than on this very touching work. I recall a small documentary on his that came out at about to coincide with its launch, and if the recall is accurate, I think it was none less than John Lee Hooker who confides that when he first heard Hiatt on... more info
Customer Review: Coming from Scotland , I'd never heard of John Hiatt before and discovered him by accident . I heard "Have a Little Faith in me" and was stunned and ordered his "Best of" and it's fantastic ! Now I had to find out that he wrote "Thing Called Love" and "Angel Eyes" and he sings them better than the... more info
Customer Review: If you like the American singer/songwriter genre you must buy this. A masterpiece by a master songwriter...and keep listening because it just gets better with time.

He went... more info

Customer Review: Until recently, I was aware only that John Hiatt is a song writer who crafted songs covered by others. Last month I saw him in solo performance and the next day I purchased this anthology. This collection is jaw-dropping in scope - from early Nashville days, to much more contemporary writing and... more info
Customer Review: John Hiatt's 1988 release "Slow Turning" is a hands down classic. This was my introduction to John Hiatt after I heard the uptempo rocker "Paper Thin" on the local radio station. I soon discovered that this CD was one solid set of songs that were easy to listen to all the way thru. I just happen to... more info
Customer Review: 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.
