Summary
By the mid-1980s, singer-songwriter John Hiatt had been dropped from three record labels, burned through two marriages, and fallen deep into alcoholism. By February 1987 he was back in the studio on a shoestring budget recording what would become his masterpiece. Elliott takes readers on a journey from the musical landscape of the 1960s through today, placing Hiatt's career in context. -- adapted from jacket
