  • 1 JOHN HIATT Over Thirty-Five Years After the Release of His Debut Album
    1 JOHN HIATT Over thirty-five years after the release of his debut album, John Hiatt remains one of America’s most respected and influential singer-songwriters. As the Los Angeles Times once wrote, “(Hiatt) writes the funniest sad songs – and the saddest funny songs – of just about anybody alive.” John Hiatt’s songs have been covered by artists as diverse as Bob Dylan, Bonnie Raitt (“Thing Called Love”), Buddy Guy, Emmylou Harris, Ronnie Milsap, Iggy Pop, the Neville Brothers, Rosanne Cash (the #1 country hit, “The Way We Make A Broken Heart”), the Jeff Healey Band (“Angel Eyes”), Willie Nelson, Steve Earle, Linda Ronstadt, and even the cartoon bear band of Disney’s 2002 film, The Country Bears. He earned a Grammy nomination for his album Crossing Muddy Waters, and B.B. King and Eric Clapton shared a Grammy for their album Riding With The King, the title track from which was a Hiatt composition. In 2007, John Hiatt was honored with his own star on Nashville’s Walk of Fame and his legacy was even further cemented with a pair of accolades in the fall of 2008: the Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award for Songwriting in September, and his October induction into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. With seven solo albums already under his belt, Hiatt’s A&M debut, Bring The Family (1987), was his breakthrough. His rootsy, rock-country-blues fusion – performed with guitarist Ry Cooder, bassist Nick Lowe, and drummer Jim Keltner – was Hiatt’s first charted effort, and he was subsequently named Best Male Vocalist in Rolling Stone’s annual Critics Poll.

  • (THE A&M YEARS '87-94) John Hiatt Is One Of
    1 JOHN HIATT’S MOST ACCLAIMED SONGS COMPILED ON GREATEST HITS (THE A&M YEARS ‘87-94) John Hiatt is one of America’s most respected and influential songwriters; his songs have been covered by artists as diverse as Bob Dylan, Dave Edmunds, Conway Twitty, Three Dog Night, Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Iggy Pop, the Neville Brothers, Suzy Bogguss, Roseanne Cash (the #1 country hit “The Way We Make A Broken Heart”), Charlie Sexton, and the Jeff Healey Band. The Los Angeles Times once wrote that he “writes the funniest sad songs--and the saddest funny songs--of just about anybody alive.” Performing his own songs, in a solo recording career now 25 years long on a handful of labels, it was his years on A&M Records which earned him the most widespread acclaim. John Hiatt: Greatest Hits (The A&M Years ‘87-94) (A&M/UME), released October 19, 1999, is a new compilation of 18 of his best-known songs culled from his five A&M albums. Each song was remastered from the original tapes, and the album package features photos, complete annotation and new liner notes. With his first seven solo albums under his belt, Hiatt was named Best Male Vocalist in Rolling Stone’s Critics Poll following the release of his A&M debut Bring The Family (1987). The album’s rootsy rock-country-blues fusion, performed with an all-star band of guitarist Ry Cooder, bassist Nick Lowe and drummer Jim Keltner, was Hiatt’s first charting effort--and the launch of a dedicated cult following.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • John Hiatt Fanzine – Issue 13
    Slow Turning John Hiatt Fanzine – Issue 13 What’s This? On a very chilly, very, very early morning sometime in the late fall of 1993, my mother and I ventured into the heart of Boston to sit outside a box office. We’d seen in the paper that John Hiatt would be coming in support of his latest CD, Perfectly Good Guitar. Tickets were going on sale at 10 AM. I had just become a big enough fan and old enough, at thirteen, to demand that I was going to buy the best tickets possible, but not old enough to spend hours by myself in the theater district. As the sun came up around the sky-scrapers and fellow die-hards gathered to wait for the magic hour the window would open, all we had to entertain ourselves was maybe a newspaper and conversation with the other fans eager for tickets. I chatted non-stop, thrilled to be surrounded by people who seemed to love John Hiatt’s music as much as I did. Most people in my high school didn’t even know who he was by name and couldn’t relate to my fandom. I’m sharing this memory of this day because it was not only the birth of Slow Turning: John Hiatt Fanzine but, I think, illustrates just how much the world has changed since I first started this project. Back then, there were no online forums for conversations between followers of the same artists. There was no way for news to travel from artist to fan except by paper mailings; the In the John fanclub had become defunct.

  • John Hiatt the Eclipse Sessions
    John Hiatt The Eclipse Sessions “You know how writing goes for me,” John Hiatt says, offering a glimpse into his creative process. “I get a couple of lines going, and then I just tag along as the songs start to reveal themselves. You’ve just gotta jump inside and take the ride.” Hiatt has been on that ride—as have we all, tagging along right beside him—for more than four decades now. In fact, since the release of his 1974 debut, Hangin’ Around the Observatory, rarely has more than a year or two passed without a new Hiatt collection hitting the shelves. But after wrapping up a year of touring in support of 2014’s Terms of My Surrender—the singer-songwriter’s 22nd studio effort overall—he found himself, for the first time in a long time, unsure of what would come next. Not that he panicked. “I’ve been lost before,” Hiatt says, with the self-assurance of a man who has experienced a thing or two over his long and varied career. “Although usually I have some sort of notion or clue where to go.” But this time? He laughs. “I had no sense whatsoever.” As for the cause of this uncertainty? “Life, really,” he says. “Or just changes in life. My wife and I made the decision to sell our farm [in Williamson County, Tennessee] and move back into Nashville. I wanted to spend more time with my family. I was aging, with all that entails or doesn’t entail. Stuff was just happening.” During this period of transition Hiatt did manage to compose a new song—a dusty, road-worn meditation titled “Robber’s Highway.” But the lyrics he penned (“I had words, chords and strings / now I don’t have any of these things”) sounded almost ominously prophetic.
