It’s 14 minutes long. Was he intimidated by all that material? A: No, not at all. He was the opposite of intimidated. He embraced it. I found him in a show I was playing in LA, I was actually performing with Rickie Lee Jones a couple years ago and he came up to me and said hi and told me he loved my bass play- ing and all that. And I was in the process of getting people to do the record and I invited him right then. And we showed him some words. He chose the words that were around 30 pages long. And I don’t think he really realized what it might mean to do a song that was that long. Nora told him he could edit if he wanted, but he didn’t really want to edit much. He loved the words so much and the story, he didn’t want to chop it down or shorten it much. We did do a four minute thing for radio so there’s a chance someone may hear the song outside the record. He never wanted to edit the song for the record, and you know it’s 25% of the record–15 minutes long. But we both love the tune and somehow we made up the music and the melody together on our first day jamming in the studio. There’s a photograph, I think it’s in the record with a couple music stands with all the words taped over them–a massive amount of words, and he really got into it. To this day he says that when he plays the song for his friends, they sit there and after ten minutes they’re still sitting there and they’re into it. But at the end they’re wondering if they’ve really been listening to music for a whole day. They’re surprised at how intense and long it is. Even though it is long, it doesn’t really feel long when you get into it, it really grabs you. It could have been a spoken word piece because there were so many words, but to his credit, he wanted to sing it, so he turned it into a song.” - Reprinted from American Songwriter, 8/25/11 For the full article, head to: http://www.americansongwriter.com/2011/08/rob-wasserman-talks-woody-guthrie-note-of-hope/ John Hiatt continues his long history Let AllMusic fill you in on the sounds of critical praise with his Dirty Jeans and story of The Duke & The King “Hiatt’s songs have characteristically been about more “Although the Duke & the King is an American band hail- than what’s on the surface, which is what has earned ing from the Catskills Mountains, this self-titled disc is their first him wide respect over the last four decades among crit- domestic release, a compilation culled from the contents of two ics, peers, and other afcionados…” - Los Angeles Times previous albums released in Europe. That a U.S. group can only get a record out in the U.S. through the American subsidiary “Hiatt remains at the top of of a British label (Silva Screen’s newly formed So imprint) may his game.” - AP be explained, at least somewhat, by the music. Former Felice Brothers member Simone Felice, the leader of the Duke & the “…John Hiatt’s 20th album King (which also features Bobby Burke, Nowell Haskins, and shows him still cranking out Simi Stone) references Ronald Reagan and MTV on the auto- quality roots music…” biographical “Union Street,” positioning himself as a child of the ‘80s. But in musical terms, he and his bandmates seem much - Boston Globe older. Specifically, their style is closely evocative of some of the rural country/folk/rock of the late ‘60s and early ‘70s; think the “Dirty Jeans and Mudslide Band’s first three albums, Van Morrison’s “Caledonia Soul” tril- Hymns shows Hiatt’s muse to ogy of Moondance, Tupelo Honey, and His Band and the Street be as sharp as ever.” - Philadelphia Inquirer Choir, and Neil Young’s solo discography up to Harvest. In musi- cal terms, then, this is a record that should have come out some “John Hiatt’s music has become as comfortable as an time between 1968 and 1972. Felice, who turns lead vocals old pair of jeans, and like those work pants, he’s still over occasionally to the soulful Burke and the Sam Cooke-like right for the job.” - PopMatters Haskins, even evinces much of the melancholia of the ‘60s hangover era of the first Nixon administration, when anti-war “…John Hiatt keeps delivering the goods…” - Detroit activists and drug-addled hippies began to realize that Wood- Free Press stock wasn’t really a harbinger of countercultural hegemony. Felice is bedeviled by an unspecified sadness and longing, and “…Hiatt has been Mr. Reliable, and this convincing new that only adds to the resonance of well-constructed songs that recording only adds to his legacy.” - The Republican will appeal to triple-A radio in the U.S., now that his band finally has gotten a purchase on its homeground.
