Got to provide production for Roy Rogers, John Hyatt and Stevie Ray Vaughn back in the day….what an honor! What a show! This was during Stevie’s Live Alive! tour.
John Hiatt rocks! I saw them live in NYC around this time. The best. Sonny's playing is sick! I think his biggest influence must be Johnny Winter. This band is perfection. Great clip.
Sonny Landreth is a freak of nature. Hiatt has back to back albums (Bring The Family & Slow Turning) with Ry Cooder & Sonny Landreth respectively. Has a singer songwriter EVER had that caliber on consecutive albums?
@Marktuber1 My pleasure. I was aware of John Hiatt as a songwriter in the late '80s, but I didn't appreciate him as a live performer until late one night in 1988 when he and The Goners tore it up on Late Night With David Letterman doing "Slow Turning." Fell in love with that song and with that unforgettable slide guitar lick from one Sonny Landreth. Always make sure to see them live whenever they tour the Pacific Northwest.
Saw him once, in a small bar, maybe 50 to 100 people total. I was less than 10 ft away from him for the whole show. Had no idea how THAT worked out that way.
saw him end the newport folk festival with this song solo / great to watch the line of grim state police in front of the stage smile at the last line where he's in prison/
True. And even worse in my opinion is that they didn’t start with the riff-thing, wrong beat, and it has a weird backup thing that was not in the original
Die Band "Aaschglatt" hat das Lied auch gecovert. Zwar anders, aber mit dem Einfluss von Hiatt. Der Song heißt "Sex, Drugs und Rock'n Roll. Auch gut...
I went to see this band on the Bring The family tour. I was picking up my tickets in the afternoon before the gig and bumped into the band and had a quick chat. John wasn't with them. They were not a happy bunch and didn't seem to be enjoying the tour. I went away saying to myself, "Blimey, his band don't like him".
@@garyclements6946 , there's an excellent video on RUclips of Sonny playing on "Dreams" with Warren Haynes, the Allman Brothers and a sax player. It's mesmerizing.
From the amazing Thelma and Louise soundtrack!!
What an excellent performer. Nothing can beat John Hiatt live.
Sonny Landreth blistering the slide guitar. Love it!
except he ain't playin' no slide on THIS song

less than 1 million views of Sonny absolutely tearing it up..tisk tisk..

My favorite Hyatt band
What a great artist, wouldn't miss it for the world!
Love his music
I was fortunate to see JH & the Goners in NYC during this period. What a kickass band! Great songs, great musicianship, the best!
John Hiatt is one of the greatest ever...
Man. What a dream
John Hiatt rocks! I saw them live in NYC around this time. The best.

thanks for share fendermac this is great!
Thanks for putting this whole concert together for the world to enjoy...
seen Sonny twice....most amazing slide player
Saw him in a tiny bar in Madison, WI. Less than 100 people there. I was standing about 10 ft away from him.
Cool tune!

Love that song.

Slowed down by half, this kicks ass
Man Sonny Landreth is freakin' awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sonny Landreth is amazing on this.
Tennessee plates with Louisiana rhythm :-)
omg that snare mike
mighty fine pickin and singin
Sonny flogging that Firebird with a country Johnny Winter flair.

Going to see him next Tuesday, with Sonny Landreth - they're doing the whole of the Slow Turning album - can't wait! :-)
The Charlie Sexton version is far superior! :D
@@thatdrewrivers Bollocks!😊
Damn, Sonny is on fire here.
Ohh my gawd
Superb
I Agree
I just visited Brushy Mountain State Prison this summer!
The slower version is much better as you can't appreciate the words on this one my opin,
True. And even worse in my opinion is that they didn’t start with the riff-thing, wrong beat, and it has a weird backup thing that was not in the original
Ripping that firebird like no tomorrow
Sonny Landreth. Bow to the master.
Sonny makes me want to quit
John Hiatt: sitting at the feet of the master songwriter
Just swing me 'round' weeee!!
Sonny on the plank.
Aug. 18 in Raleigh. Counting 'em down...
go on john,give it some of that son!
Fifteen years ago Mr. Hiatt predicted problems with Tennessee plates.
I like how it sounds like Battle of New Orleans by Johnny Horton.
HOLY SHIT, SONNY LANDRETH

If Sonny were ten years older he could have been the perfect replacement for Duane in the Allman Brothers Band.
The perfect replacement was Warren Haynes. I think a better move would have been replacing Lowell George in Little Feet

John Hiatt is better live period
is sonny even using his slide? sure don't see it
Who mixed this?
Somebody with terrible ears
I bought 3 cds. Back in the day. No one cares about spelling on this post.
Sonny sounds just like Jerry Garcia on this.
Jerry Garcia is so far below the caliber player that Sonny Landreth is that the difference can be measured in light years.
An then I was correct again, about Tennessee. Do not go there.
Landreth is talented but always misses the mark... WHY did he take this great song in the direction of "Battle Of New Orleans" ???
Cos they needed to loosen that Teutonic crowd up a bit.
