Wonderful... some of Hiatt's best songs are here. I've been a fan since Riding with the King. This is gloriously played, too. What a band.

J.T.
by Steve Earle & The Dukes
supported by 8 fans who also own “Heartbreak Hotel”
The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'. Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was.

This is my favourite song from the original album; when I listened to both side-by-side I was blown away by how much better the little changes in mixing here make an already classic song!

A rare combination of amazing songs, artists, artistry, and a fantastic cause. The engineering alone is worth a headphones listen.
