John Hiatt Demo Tapes 1975-1983 | Voodoo Wagon [a draftervoi special!]

John Hiatt Demo Tapes 1975-1983

Wow early stuff! I think I came to Hiatt late on, through Nick Lowe and then Ry Cooder and others, his own band with Southern guitar legend Sonny Landreth in his band. I heard Memphis In The Meantime (still a favourite song!) and was struck! I guess this was late eighties early nineties. Then his songs began showing on other's albums by folk like Bonnie Raitt (Nick of Time) and I thought hang on a cotton picking minute! Check out 'Bring The Family’(87) and Stolen Moments (92?) and Little Village too. He has known terrible family tragedy and sobered up early on which I understand completely. Not everything always rang with me but when he collaborated and the guitarists he worked with and the songwriting, the SONGWRITING, I was soon a fan, this looks really interesting roots of his writing no less and in FLAC files too!

Well done drafter . . . . . this is lovely!

Sonny Landreth LIVE Berghoff And Blues Festival Monroe, WI Sept 15, 2007 - soundaboard

This is fun too! Now I really rate Sonny Landreth as one of the best slide players around but there’s a problem it seems to me. He is fine and amongst the finest when playing with a band. Check out his work with Johnny Hiatt and you won’t find anyone finer. Playing on his own and with a band of his own devising, lacks the discipline needed to not get carried away IMHO. Here we have evidence. This is a fine fine set but his guitar soloing gets so carried away with bombast and flash it lets itself down left right and centre. Not sure any other guitarists will get this and I hope you enjoy it but sorry Ry Cooder he aint!
