Well, I like Hiatt & so does AL.  VHM.

I actually like a lot of his songwriting, when covered by others -- Rodney Crowell's version of "She Loves the Jerk" is one I need to put on my wish-list for whatever year that's from.

I can agree w this.  He writes some interesting songs, tells good stories, but I don't dig his intonation or vocal texture.  I'll chk out that Rodney Crowell song.

indeed -- BOS4 from me. This is miles ahead of the typical Morey '87 snoozefest. (watch -- now that I said that, we'll get Crowded House, Robbie Nevil and Squeeze)

Sheena Easton was HAWT!  big crush on her and her Sugar Walls.

I'll give a BOS to Los Lobos, even though when I saw them in 1985 at the Bayou Club in Wash DC, and I kept yelling out my request for Diablo Con Vestido Azul, they ignored me.  I'm still waiting.. :(  Less Bertha, more Diablo, por favor.

BOS2 G-Sats, "Battleship Chains".

WOS Hiatt, he's really become a deal-breaker, 10@10-wise.



Concur... He's high on my list of most despised KFOG artists.

BOSes to Dusty & PSBs and Jane's Getting Serious...I can get serious too!

I think I'll have to request Donna Allen's "Serious" for a future 1987 10@10.
