Mac Rebenack is legit. He’s from the ghetto of New Orleans, he just happens to be white. As a young teenager, he was already a hot session player as a guitar player. Then he had a finger shot off in a drug deal gone bad, so he switched to keys. He played on some of the funkiest records of all time, because not only is New Orleans the birthplace of jazz, it’s also the birthplace of funk, that heady gumbo of Caribbean and southern rhythms that is uniquely New Orleans. He took the name Dr. John after a Senagalese/Haitian voodoo medicine man, famous for selling his voodoo charms, called grisgris, not coincidentally the name of Dr John’s first, amazingly psychedelic funk record.

He's from New Orleans, and he was a guitarist but he got injured from a gunshot to one of his fingers, then turned to playing primarily keyboard. He's definitely one of a kind.

He was known as "Dr. John The Night Tripper" mixing funk with psychedelia and Voodoo Chants in 1968. His Real Name was Mac Rebenenak

[TheDivayenta]

One of the greatest songs ever! Backed by the mighty Meters of New Orleans!!!!

[fredhall]

"Such A Night" is his other signature song.

Dr. Joh was an incredibly interesting and talented person. He was a legendary performer, and his live shows were unforgettable events. He won 6 Grammy awards and put out 30 albums even though he really only had this one big radio hit. Dr. John is also in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (2011). He was also a powerhouse behind the scenes as a song writer and studio musician. He made contributions to hundreds of songs and albums by a multitude of other artists. He also popped up in lots of movies and TV shows usually appearing as himself. A very unique and interesting individual. Oh Yeah, he had an honorary Doctorate Degree from Tulane University.

"How can he be so funky?" That is pure New Orleans Yattitude, baby! His real name was John Malcolm "Mac" Rebennack - he took his stage name from a famous hoodoo practitioner in New Orleans. You should check out some of his other songs like "Revolution", "I Walk on Gilded Splinters", "How Come My Dog Don't Bark When You Come Around", "Gris Gris Gumbo Ya Ya", "Iko Iko", "Such a Night", "Mardi Gras Day", Litanie Des Saints"...just to name a few. We lost Dr. John in June 2019 - and he is very missed.

This is one of the "BADDEST" tunes ever conceived, composed and performed. I first heard this tune in a bar in San Francisco about 40-45 years ago. Absolutely KILLER! Thanks so much for your reaction,

[robertsoden]

And adding to the funk is the fact that the backing band in the album is basically New Orleans legends The Meters.

[Hama]

I know I'm late to the comments, but the band here is George Porter on bass, Joseph Modeliste on drums, Leo Nocentelli on guitar, Art Neville on organs, and Allen Toussaint filling in, basically some of the best musicians New Orleans had at the time. Most of those guys were also the Meters check out Look-Ka Py Py if you haven't already, one of the foundations of funk music.

Malcolm John Rebennack Jr. (November 20, 1941 – June 6, 2019), better known by his stage name Dr. John, was an American singer and songwriter. His music combined New Orleans blues, jazz, funk, and R&B.

[mrmjb]

His Debut Lp "Gris-Gris" was a Spooky album featuring Voodoo Chants set to Rock Music!

[mrmjb]

He Dressed the part, with Dressing and Jewelry straight out of the Voodoo Custom!

[philippesauvie]

“I thought it was James Brown‘s cousin!” Love it man! Great reaction! Funk on! 😆👍

[davidmazon]

You ought to hear him talk. He's sounds like Wolfman Jack a famous American DJ.

[robertlear]

I saw Dr. John perform this live at a blues festival in Portland in 2016. I was grateful to be able to see him in person before he passed away in 2019 at the age of 77. My college roommate and I used to listen to him when we were in college in the late 60's.

[jeffcasey]

Dr John love that chicken from Popeyes everyone has heard that commercial not knowing who it is in the commercial

[atomreader]

Born and raised in New Orleans. The New Orleans funk scene is phenomenal - you need to start with The Meters and Eddie Bo, then The Neville Brothers, Dr. John of course, then you can move on to our legendary piano players, Professor Longhair, Henry Butler and the list goes on and on.

I remember a late night back in 1992, the Meters had reformed and we were trippin balls watching them play at Tipitinas, dancing our buts off and I look to my left at the cat jammin alongside of me and it’s Bill Murray. Back in the 70s Paul McCartney rented out the QE2 and had the Meters play a show. The Meters are the funkiest band, next to P-Funk.

[Fishmorph]

Dr John is an amazing chameleon of blues styling. He's played with Sonny and Cher, the Rolling Stones, Frank Zappa, Neil Diamond, and many others as a top-tier studio musician. You hear his rolling piano in the background and it's unmistakable. Take a listen to the studio version of Leon Redbone playing "Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight" (another artist to check out eventually) and you'll hear Dr John on the keys.

[dsusan]

It is impossible for me to be still while this is played. Yes blue eyed funk! Great reaction Harri!
