Slow Turning was originally released in 1988. This 180 gram vinyl is a transfer from the original flat mounting onto 1/2 "album tape. Remastered by the legendary Ron McMaster on Capitol Records, the entire mastering was checked and approved by John Hiatt himself.

"After the success of Bring the Family, John Hiatt originally wanted to reunite the album's all-star backing band (Ry Cooder, Nick Lowe and Jim Keltner) for a successor. Hiatt's "Dream Band" turned out to be unavailable, so he recorded Slow Turning with his street band, the Goners, but the finished product proves that he remembered the lessons from Bring the Family well. Slow turning is an easier, funnier thing than bringing the family; the outlaw rocker "Tennessee Plates" and its more subdued counterpart "Trudy and Dave" are more exuberant than anything on the previous album, and the tempos are sharper this time, with a little less blues and a touch more twang in the melodies. "- AllMusic
