"Thank You Girl" gave John Hiatt his first entry on the mainstream rock singles chart, lifted from Bring the Family, the 1987 album that was also his first to reach the Billboard 200. It's his song top to bottom, words and music, and he sings it and plays the acoustic guitar himself.
The band behind him is a heavyweight crew: Ry Cooder on electric guitar, Nick Lowe on electric bass and Jim Keltner on drums. Bring the Family was Hiatt's eighth studio album, and the same four players regrouped years later as Little Village, cutting an album together in 1992.
