Buffets version is better,which Sonny tops this version and is on Jimmy Buffets License To Chill CD.You John Hiatt lovers out there need to check it out...................PH
Ditto...John Hiatt is a great songwriter with a voice that takes some getting used to, Buffett does this song with more emotion and a truer sence of been there and seen that. But since RP is pretty much a 'Buffett free zone' I don't expect to hear his version anytime soon.

There are JH songs that groove and those that don't. This, happily, is the former. If you lost your Blur/Beatles groove, it ain't Hiatt's fault!! ChardRemains wrote:

I could swear I heard his dentures whistle on this (assuming he wears them?). Love Landreth's slide guitar, but could manage without John's voice.

More signature licks from Sonny Landreth. Excellent!

I like just about every thing this guy does. Please play, perfectly good guitar.

I'm a serious John Hiatt fan - at least the mid '80s and later John Hiatt - but this time out, he seems to be borrowing too much from himself. Hey, you can't hit a homer in every at bat.

Not everyone "gets" Hiatt, but I think he's among the best contemporary songwriters. Yeah, his voice is an acquired taste, but you just have to love a guy who writes "we could go down with a smile on, don't bother to pack your nylons." A pure deeeeeeelight.
perfectly put!

This is one that I don't particularly like but associate with Radioparadise as one of its staples. That makes me kind of like it, for some reason.

I do believe that I have now heard enough John Hiatt in the last week to last a lifetime, thanks. :P
Posted 21 years ago by timc    [ Reply ]
One of my all time favorite singer/songwriters. And he\'s a real gentleman as well!
Posted 21 years ago by paulmall    [ Reply ]
Excellent. That sure sounds like Ry Cooder - even though it\'s Landreth. So sweet.
