Album Review

On Dr. John's first major-label effort, and first vocal studio album in ten years, he performs a set of pop standards including Cole Porter's "Love for Sale" and Johnny Mercer's "Accentuate the Positive." After starting out with a wild stage act and unusual costumes, Dr. John has evolved into a vocal stylist and piano virtuoso, which makes the idea of doing this sort of material appealing. And he does it well, turning out a leisurely duet with Rickie Lee Jones on "Makin' Whoopee" that won a Grammy (Best Jazz Vocal Performance, Duo or Group), and giving sad feeling to "My Buddy." Maybe he has changed since the Gris Gris days, but even a mellowed Dr. John is a tasty one.

Customer Reviews

More than the Dr. John you might know!

Too many people know of Dr. John from his gumbo rock. But the REAL Dr. John can be found here on this excellent album. It's wonderful New Orleans style jazz with big band accompanyment. His piano playing is wonderful. The tunes are romantic, catchy and memorable. I strongly recommend Makin' Whoopie (with Rickie Lee Jones), My Buddy and More Than You Know. It might change the way you think of Dr. John!

The Night We Never Met

I HAD to buy this album after hearing "More Than You Know" on one of the sweetest movies of all time: "The Night We Never Met." This is a well worn favorite.

Although he didn't become widely known until the 1970s, Dr. John had been active in the music industry since the late '50s, when the teenager was still known as Mac Rebennack. A formidable boogie and blues pianist with a lovable growl of a voice, his most enduring achievements have fused New Orleans R&B, rock, and Mardi Gras craziness to come up with his own brand of "voodoo" music. He's also quite accomplished and enjoyable when sticking to purely traditional forms of blues and R&B. On record,...
