Free Music Notes for Dr. John's Gumbo
Free Music Review: Six Stars
Hit: 5 Stars
I love this album. The songs, the piano, the vocal, the band, uh is there anything else? This is all day music. I say it is his best and one of the best from the 70's.It's got soul and funk and it's real. Nuff said yall.Free Music Review: Good Dr John
Hit: 4 Stars
This is a very good CD. It has essentially none of the voodoo sound sometimes associated with Dr John. I love it for its honest New Orleans sound. The version of 'Let the Good Times Roll' is one of his best. Not a bad cut among them all.Free Music Review: Essential Dr. John, essential New Orleans
Hit: 5 Stars
There isn't a bad track. Hell, there isn't a bad note. Dr. John covers icons such as Professor Longhair and Huey Smith to plug us into the funk, the stride piano, the gutter humor and alien dialect of New Orleans, which, amazingly enough, is part of America. It's hard to pick just one, but 'Big Chief' starts with an organ riff like a circus calliope, then a thudding drum and bass, then Dr. John's ripsaw voice, then, a little later, a crazy female choir. Should've been a hit.
Free Music Review: spicy gumbo
Hit: 4 Stars
here's the doctor's gumbo, a spicy dish of new orleans favourites. if you like good time music this one for you, but those gourmet lookin fo gris gris voodoo music should look elsewhere, no traces here of the fantastic cacophony that the doctor revealed in his first 3-4 records.Free Music Review: A Great Desert Island Disc
Hit: 5 Stars
Not only is it a classic and timeless...it is real happy and upbeat and can get you out of any gloom..The New Orleans feel is only part of the story, Dr. John must have influenced The Clash when they were doing London Calling..Stagger Lee, Junko Partner etc...are all on this CD..you can not go wrong if you like King Oliver,Professor Longhair,Jelly Roll Morton etc....take a chance on a classic from close to 35 years ago...
