Review

Uncut (p.104) - 3 stars out of 5 - "Hiatt's burnished blend of tattered blues, Memphis soul and mournful folk-rock zigzags through rich character studies, comic episodes and gripping narrative."
Dirty Linen (p.52) - "[W]hen Hiatt does spin one of his gripping stories of low-life hustlers, like the disc's best song, 'Cold River,' the effect can still be devastating."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.99) - 4 stars out of 5 - "Hiatt delivers his most lyrically sharp and melodically inspired material in years."

Recording information: Ardent Studios, Memphis, Tennessee.

More than 30 years into his recording career, John Hiatt is as vital as ever on MASTER OF DISASTER, and at his most soulful since his critically feted BRING THE FAMILY/SLOW TURNING period. Not only are his singing and material full of grit and emotional impact, there's a vintage Atlantic soul flavor to some of the tunes here that conjures up images of Bob Dylan and Otis Redding trading songs in the back room of a Nashville beer joint. Even the more overtly country-oriented tracks, such as "Thunderbird" and "Old School" are full of original lyrical twists and turns typical of Hiatt's distinctively quirky sensibility. MASTER OF DISASTER closes by peeking into yet another corner of musical Americana, with the country blues-tinged "Back on the Corner;" equal parts Randy Newman and Ry Cooder, it perfectly illustrates the combo platter of tradition and sly innovation that is Hiatt's stock in trade.
