Produktbeschreibungen

Audio
Räucherstäbchen, Totenschädel und Piano: Mit seinem Comeback Television (AUDIO 6/1994) verordnete der Voodoo-Doktor aus New Orleans seinen Fans ein schrecklich schönes Soul-Funk-Programm. Kein Wunder - seit Jahren zieht der knurrige Notenhexer sein musikalisches Elixier aus dem Mississippi-Delta. Dort, In The Right Place, liegen die Wurzeln des 54jährigen: Das 73er Album ist sein Beststeller, Gumbo ('72) gibt's von den MFSL-Spezialisten als Zugabe: Klanglich leicht entstaubt, glänzen die beiden Klassiker dennoch als Gold-Fetisch mit 73 Minuten Spieldauer.

Review by James Chrispell
Dr. John finally struck paydirt here and was certainly In the Right Place. With the hit single "Right Place Wrong Time" bounding up the charts, this fine collection saw many unaware listeners being initiated into New Orleans-style rock. Also including Allen Toussaint's "Life," and a funky little number entitled "Traveling Mood," which shows off the good doctor's fine piano styling, and with able help from the Meters as backup group, In the Right Place is still a fine collection to own.



Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Dr. John's Gumbo bridged the gap between post-hippie rock and early rock & roll, blues, and R&B, offering a selection of classic New Orleans R&B, including "Tipitina" and "Junko Partner," updated with a gritty, funky beat. There aren't as many psychedelic flourishes as there were on his first two albums, but the ones that are present enhance his sweeping vision of American roots music. And that sly fusion of styles makes Dr. John's Gumbo one of Dr. John's finest albums.
