The Doctor is out

R.I.P., Dr. John, a.k.a. Mac Rebennack. From “Gris-Gris” to Popeye’s Chicken to Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem in just 77 years? I can’t top that, me. The Next World Orchestra just keeps getting biggerer and betterer.

Dr. John was different in a good way. I had never heard anything like his first album. I still love “Walk on Guilded Splinters”.

He did have influence on people, like Leon Russell. He sort of tagged it with this…

Dr. John is another musician that I missed somehow. There are so many great musicians, both discovered and working away in anonymity, that it’s hard to make time for all of them.
