Same Old Man (Deluxe CD/DVD Combo)
John Hiatt
New West Records, 2008
Same Old Man
John Hiatt's "Same Old Man" CD arrived in short order and is truly delightful. I have been a fan of his for many years and this ranks among his best work.

Master of Disaster
John Hiatt
New West Records, 2005
Undiscovered Master
A close friend recommended this CD to me as his "new all-time favorite". My wife bought it for me for Easter. In the intervening 10 days I've listened to it many times and wondered, "how did I miss the last 30 years of this guy's career," as Hiatt's mix of folk, rock ...

Walk On
John Hiatt
Capitol, 1995
Introspective and laid back
I'm inclined to say that this is about as country as John gets. That wouldn't really be fair however-- it's not a country record per se, but it has that feel to it. It's just John relecting on life as usual, and getting a little melencholy, perhaps. But the songs ...

Same Old Man
John Hiatt
New West Records, 2008
Homerun
Was not a fan of his more recent Master of Disaster CD, so I was a little leery of this one. I should not have worried. Hiatt hits a homerun here. Wonderful album.

Slow Turning
John Hiatt
A&M, 1990
Buy it
I have over 500 albums/CDs (I realize there are people with thousands) and this is one of the five best that I own. It is unbelievably great.

Bring the Family
John Hiatt
A&M, 1990
Like a rocker on a porch on a summer evening.
Bring the Family is one of the most easily likable records of the 80s, and probably the most instantly accessible of Hiatt's career. He still featurs a couple of songs off here in his live shows. The band (Hiatt, Nick Lowe on bass, Ry Cooder on guitar, and Jim ...

Anthology
John Hiatt
Hip-O Records, 2001
Start here - then begin to collect everything Mr. Hiatt's put out.
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 ...

Perfectly Good Guitar
John Hiatt
A&M, 1993
Hiatt rocks out on one of his best CDs
Ask a fan of John Hiatt's about their favorite Hiatt CD, and there's probably a 90% chance he or she will pick one of the "trilogy" - "Slow Turning", "Bring the Family", or "Stolen Moments". These are all great albums, but the argument could be made that "Perfectly ...

John Hiatt - Greatest Hits: The A&M Years '87-'94
John Hiatt
Polygram International, 1998
HIATT RIOT
The title is a misnomer of sorts, since the only real hits this Hoosier minstrel of mirth and magic's ever had have been those he wrote for other artists (Bonnie Raitt's breakthrough THING CALLED LOVE, Jeff Healey's ANGEL EYES and B.B. King's comeback RIDIN' WITH THE ...

The Best of John Hiatt
John Hiatt
Capitol, 1998
Discovery
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 ...

Y'All Caught? The Ones That Got Away 1979-1985
John Hiatt
Geffen Gold Line Sp., 1996
Great supplement
"Anthology" is your best bet if you want to go the "greatest hits" route. On the other hand, if you already have "Best of," then this makes an excellent supplement. Wonderful songs.

Bring the Family
John Hiatt
A&M, 2004
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 touches to the mix helped ...

Hiatt Comes Alive at Budokan?
John Hiatt and the Guilty Dogs
A&M, 1994
One of my favorites of the last decade
I've been listening to this album for 10 years now and I never get tired of it. For me, this is John Hiatt at the peak of his songwriting skills, and those skills are first rate. Not all of the songs are deep, but they all have melodies and phrases that stick. The ...

Stolen Moments
John Hiatt
A&M, 1990
Must Biatt Hiatt
If you had to pin me down over my favorite Hiatt album than this would very narrowly win from all the others. Most sheep would have you believe Bring the Family or Slow Turning are Hiatt's definitive albums but I think this album is Hiatt reaching perfect balance. ...
