Often called 'the best album in John Hiatt's career', Bring The Family (1987) was recorded in just four days by Hiatt's dream line up: Ry Cooder on guitar, Nick Lowe on bass and Jim Keltner on drums. Having just come out of a period of personal turmoil, Bring The Family was an important record for Hiatt on a personal level. His lyrics show that he has wised up, and tells wonderful stories about love, life, and the heavens where both might take you.
The excitement of working together with his favourite musicians in the game surfaces in a sizzling spontaneity in the grooves these guys lay down. The album spawned the single "Thank You Girl" that fared well on the Mainstream Rock charts. Further highlights on the album are "Memphis In The Meantime", "Thing Called Love" and "Have A Little Faith In Me" (the one and only Hiatt original, also later interpreted by stars like Joe Cocker and Bon Jovi). A few years later, Hiatt repeated the trick with the same musicians but under the Little Village moniker [MOVLP726].
