After inhaling the psychedelic voodoo fumes of "Gris-Gris" (’68), those who kept listening to Dr. John, the Night Tripper, discovered that they were hearing one of the finest musicians to emerge from the swamps and streets of The Big Easy. Here’s his hypnotic debut plus four more early triumphs: "Babylon" (’69, featuring the very groovy "The Patriotic Flag-Waiver"), "The Sun, Moon & Herbs" (’71, with guests Eric Clapton and Mick Jagger), "Dr. John’s Gumbo" (’72, featuring his first hit, "Iko Iko," and lots of wicked New Orleans piano) and his 1973 breakthrough "In the Right Place" (featuring the smash "Right Place Wrong Time," the hit "Such a Night" and super-funky backing by the Meters)!
