• Hiatt was already a seasoned performer and songwriter by the time this album was released. He was "the songwriter's songwriter" and destined for critically acclaimed cult status. This is just one of a series of excellent collections of songs that have been recorded by dozens of artists from Bonnie Raitt to Joe Cocker. The simple piano accompanying the gravel-voiced "Have A Little Faith In Me" makes the hairs stand up on end. Hiatt's fine supporting musicians are Jim Keltner (drums), Ry Cooder (guitar) and Nick Lowe (bass). This unsung genius is the Randy Newman of roots-rock.

• John Hiatt was already a seasoned performer and songwriter by the time BRING THE FAMILY was released. He'd attained critical accolades and cult status via his heady, urgent concoction of rock, blues, and old-school R&B; further, he's an oft-covered "songwriter's songwriter, virtually a Randy Newman of roots-rock, whose songs have been recorded by dozens of artists, ranging from Bonnie Raitt to Joe Cocker. Amid a sterling catalog, however, this is one of his finest batches of songs. Hiatt's ace band consists of friends and collaorators Jim Keltner (drums), Ry Cooder (guitar), and Nick Lowe (bass)--what a band! Yet the simple piano accompanying the gravel-voiced "Have A Little Faith In Me" can still make those neck hairs stand on end.
  

Uncut (p.96) - "[T]he main preoccupations of BRING THE FAMILY were loss, breakdown and despair, followed by tentative resurrection and renewed hope....Hiatt was exposing his inner core."
