Variety -- the Spice of Life!

John Hiatt

This week, 

The Big Fat Wide Americana Hour celebrates the 65th birthday of 

John Hiatt -- one of the best Americana songwriters ever.

We rejoice in one of his best songs, and we enjoy a couple of great covers of his other songs by artists in different genres.

Plus, of course, we have our usual wonderful variety -- folk, blues, country, soul, etc.-- from all eras right up to the present day.

Among the artists featured this week:

Roy Orbison * Jesse Winchester

Gretchen Peters * Greg Brown

Bonnie Raitt * Aaron Neville

 

Plus:

Brand new stuff from 

Walter Trout and Bill Booth

Classic stuff from 

Linda Ronstadt and Jeannie C. Riley

And so much more!

Hear it here!
