<p>John Hiatt is an American rock guitarist, pianist and singer/songwriter. Born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, he has established himself as a respected and influential figure in the music industry. With his unique blend of rock, folk and country sounds, Hiatt's heartfelt lyrics and soulful performances have captivated audiences worldwide. His extensive discography showcases his versatility as an artist, with each album showcasing his talent for storytelling through songwriting. Whether performing solo or with a band, John Hiatt continues to create music that resonates with fans of all generations.</p>

Much to his credit, John Hiatt has never strayed very far from the bluesy garage rock roots of his Indiana childhood. That fact is raucously underscored here, a gritty collection that finds the veteran singer/songwriter co-crediting his longtime band, the Goners (guitarist Sonny Landreth, bassist Dave Ranson and Kenneth Blevins on drums) for the first time--and for good reason. Recorded live in the studio, Hiatt and the Goners evoke everything from chugging Sun Records' shuffles to swampy Delta blues, early Ry Cooder and the Band, all of it informed by the almost telepathic sense of interplay these musicians have developed over decades of touring. This is easily the most overtly rocking album of Hiatt's career, but one that hasn't sacrificed an ounce of soul for its joyous energy. New West presents this record in stand alone color vinyl for the first time. Limited edition on split grey and clear vinyl.<br>
