BruceC.Nov 20, 20019Hiatt has earned plenty of starts over his long career, but "Crossing Muddy Waters" is a highpoint--despite the fact that it's atypical. While "The Tiki Bar Is Open" is fine, fine effort--his best electric album in ten years--you can't help but wish he'd do more records like this one.

80Hiatt holds down the drummerless rhythm with his acoustic six-string and a National resonator guitar. The boisterous atmosphere (everybody hoots and hollers) evokes a back-porch picking session, and Hiatt's songs draw from similarly down-home sources.... a recording that reflects the spirit of musicians who live to sing and play.

The most natural and relaxed John Hiatt album in years...Hiatt's voice has never sounded better; its course edges sometimes straining for high notes works perfectly with this craggy, unpolished music.
