Product Description

From Amazon.com

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 Cash ("The Way We Mend a Broken Heart"), Jeff Healey ("Angel Eyes"), and Aaron Neville ("Feels Like Rain") have all dipped into the Hiatt songbook with spectacular results. Hiatt's originals (plus a couple of new tracks) are terrific in their own right, thanks to his gritty vocal style and stellar accompaniment on some tracks by Ry Cooder, Nick Lowe, Jim Keltner, and Sonny Landreth. The only missteps here are a rerecorded version of "Have a Little Faith in Me" (the original is one of Hiatt's most powerful performances) and the inclusion of "Take Off Your Uniform," a distant memory from Hiatt's days as a new waver in the Elvis Costello mold. --Daniel Durchholz

5.0 out of 5 stars 誰が買っても損しません!, 2004/1/25
歳を重ねるにつれ味わいが増しパワーが増す米国屈指のソングライダー、シンガー否ロッカーのベスト盤。

数々のベストが出る中で唯一未発表曲が含まれ、尚且つ別バージョンも多く更に既発曲の音質が大幅にアップ(スローターニングの曲)しているという付加価値だらけなので、アルバムをほとんど持っている人も当然買って損はありません。またこれから初めてハイアットを聴こうという人も、これ一枚でどんなに良い曲を書くアーティストかを知ってからほとんど捨てるところのないアルバム(とりわけブリングザファミリー以降)を一枚づつ揃えていっても聴き比べの楽しみがあるという旨み満載です。

J.ヒーリーがカバーした10の初出スタジオバージョンはザバンドを彷彿とさせる味わい深いアレンジで最高だし、クリアで広がりのある高音質になった12ではより一層泣けます。ただ大袈裟過ぎるアレンジの超有名曲1と9の別テイクはアルバムの方より劣るのが唯一のマイナスポイントで10点中9点、四捨五入で五つ星という個人評価です。

国内盤がないのが残念ですが1曲毎に本人のコメントが付いているところも嬉しいかぎりです。

4.0 out of 5 stars 男の音楽, 2003/12/8
昔、TVでジョンハイアットがロバートクレイとギターを弾きながらデュエ
ットしたことがあったのだが、全くジョンの知識が無く、なかなかいい味の
歌手だなと思った。

探して買ったのがこのCD。
サザンカントリー風な曲作り、渋い歌声で、目をつぶって聴いていると、砂
漠の中の一本道を、60年代の排気量のでかいオープンカーで走りながら聴く

ローカル放送局から流れる音楽、という印象を強く受けるが、心地よい。

3曲目の「Riding With The King」はBBとクランプトンのCDにも入って
いるが、エルビスを偲んでの曲という意味では、作ったハイアットのこの歌
は胸を打つ。
