Same Old Man:
John Hiatt's "Same Old Man" CD arrived in short order and is truly delightful. I have been a fan of his for many years and this ranks among his best work.
Same old Man - Same old consistently great John Hiatt:
Hey I love John Hiatt and this stuff does not disappoint. Some great hits...took a little while to get used to compared to his latest albums but if your a John Hiatt fan (or if your not) you'll love it. The dvd was good but would rather have seen more recent stuff.
This CD is outstanding:
If you enjoy John's music, I am confident that you will enjoy his newest release. To me, his voice just keeps getting better. His music has progressed and this CD may be one of my favorites out of all of his. I will purchase anything that John is a part of and I must say that the samples that you can hear on-line prior to purchasing the CD do not do it justice. I planned on purchasing it no matter what & the entire song was so much better than 30 seconds of a sample. I think that John's fans will enjoy... more info
DVD extras:
I just wanted to clarify whats on the DVD.Six songs, two from each time John has performed on Austen City Limits. Which means if You own The Austen City Limits DVD your only getting 4 new songs. Maybe this signals more releases of John Hiatt from this excellent DVD series
