Liner notes |
John Hiatt is well known
among those who enjoy the work of the maverick, the artist who has never
quite made the big time, yet whose career has included extraordinary
highlights. Record labels also obviously adore Hiatt, because since his
1974 debut LP, he has been signed to a lot of big labels - Epic, MCA,
Geffen, A&M, and more. However, he only achieved his first US chart album
in 1987, when he signed with A&M, and while he has always been a favourite
with critics, many record buyers may be unaware of him, unless they read
songwriting credits on country albums, where Hiatt's name occurs
frequently. For example, he wrote the title track of Willie Nelson's
acclaimed 1993 album, 'Across The Borderline', and many more great Hiatt
songs have appeared on albums by notable country (and less often, folk or
rock) names in recent times. His purple period in chart terms as an artist
began when he was with A&M from 1987 to 1993, and this collection is
culled from his four albums released in that period. |
