What critics are saying about
Beneath This Gruff Exterior:
New York Post
"Beneath this Gruff Exterior" [is a] rockin', bluesy, twanging mutt of a record... the music here is all Hiatt."
The Guardian (UK)
"...Hiatt has tumbled into something approaching his best form, displaying flashes of acid wit and rolling around in the Goners' swamp-grunge like a labrador frolicking across mudflats."
Amazon.com
"Hiatt and the Goners evoke everything from chugging Sun Records' shuffles to swampy Delta blues, early Ry Cooder and the Band... This is easily the most overtly rocking album of Hiatt's career, but one that hasn't sacrificed an ounce of soul for its joyous energy." The Philadelphia Inquirer
"Beneath This Gruff Exterior is his best in years"
No Depression
"As always with Hiatt, the writing is both funny and first-rate... impressively sly."
CMJ New Music Monthly
"Beneath This Gruff Exterior rocks like crazy... Penning and performing rockin' tunes is nothing new for Hiatt, so take the latest CD for what it is - business as usual, and business is very good."
Pop Matters.com
"Hiatt's best albums have been guitar albums. Beneath This Gruff Exterior is a guitar album."
