About this item
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

Review
...Where are "Lipstick Sunset" and other Hiatt classics? Suggested title: Some of the Best of John Hiatt. -- Entertainment Weekly
The Best lives up to its billing, gathering 17 gritty roots-rockers and poignant ballads that beautifully capture the fervor and foibles of the heart. -- USA Today
Hiatt can light Fourth of July firecrackers under even the most familiar three-chord vamp. At his best, the Nashville-based songwriter paints an authentic American portrait of Shangri-la. -- People
