John Hiatt's "Terms of My Surrender" is the album you'd pick to lull you to sleep. Hiatt himself seems half-asleep throughout. His knack for melody has vanished. Sure, it's blues-inspired, but even classic blues tunes have more musical zest than the dreadful "Nobody Knew His Name," which mindlessly goes up a line and down the next. So tedious. Doug Lancio, who did a fantastic job producing Gretchen Peters' country album "Blackbirds," plays guitars, banjo, and mandolin here. He injects some life into the opening track "Long Time Comin'," which is the only highlight for me. The sluggish disaster "Baby's Gonna Kick" could be the soundtrack for a relapse. Hiatt's Willie Nelson impression on the title track flounders with his pitiful high-pitched yodeling. "Face of God" layers Hiatt's vocals over a solid blues riff; it doesn't captivate me, but it's less terrible than the final three tracks "Here To Stay," "Old People," and "Come Back Home." "Marlene" is the sole track I almost enjoy, with its lighter vibe and Kenneth Blevins' drums making it somewhat engaging. Too bad it's still dull. Someone hand John a cup of joe and wake him up. This snoozefest is a must skip. Cab!
