One of the Best Albums of all time
, December 6, 2001Reviewer: Russell M - See all Russell M's reviewsHe is truly one of the most under-rated singer-song writers of our time. He packs so much emotion into his songs. This album is so good I plan on giving it to many people for Christmas. -
John Hiatt's new CD - The Tiki Bar Is Op
, September 26, 2001Reviewer: dhamachek - See all dhamachek's reviewsThe best rock & roll I've heard in a long time, especially the number 1 track, "Everybody Went Low"! What a great track - it will get you jump'm and jivin - you won't be sitting still, that's for sure. Except for possibly 2 tracks, this is a great collection of great songs such as "My Old Friend" and "I'll Never Get Over You". This is one you need to listen to.

Pro Reviews: Tiki Bar Is Open
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews On a creative roll after 2000's acoustic Crossing Muddy Waters, John Hiatt returns rejuvenated as well as electric. Old backing band the Goners have returned for his 17th -- and best -- album in the 13 years that have passed since the same outfit accompanied him on 1988's classic Slow Turning. Unlike its intentionally cheesy tongue-in-cheek title, Tiki Bar is a keenly constructed collection of heartfelt, bluesy tunes that rock -- and often rock hard -- with tremendous soul. Subtle use of drum loops and the occasional overdub enhances, but doesn't update, Hiatt's roots approach. Like the Band, whose "The Weight" he evokes on "Hangin' Round Here," these songs seemingly spring from a bottomless well of melodies and hooks, all energized by his raw, throaty vocals. The famed Goners guitarist, Louisiana's Sonny Landreth, positively burns throughout, especially on slide, and the group consistently coalesces like Crazy Horse on a hot night. They follow their eclectic leader through waltzy ballads, folksy love songs, mid-tempo burners, and even an unusual album closing ten-minute psychedelic romp, "Farther Stars," that takes the Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows" to the Middle Eastern swamps. Far from winding down in his fifties, John Hiatt is releasing the most inspired work of his life. Fans will be thrilled that he has found his muse, and newcomers who start here will be elated to know there is more where this came from. Not quite as magical as his high-water mark, Bring the Family, this is still a superbly crafted disc whose songs quickly sink in and stay lodged in your brain. Come in and have a taste; the tiki bar is open. - Hal Horowitz, All Music Guide |
