5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant compilation of the Doctor's '68-74 purple patch......, 6 Jul 2008

By	TCH (Cambs, UK.) - See all my reviews

This is a quite brilliant 2CD compilation at an astounding price. This compilation covers the Doctor's years on Atlantic records ATCO subsidary from the swampy voodoo of 'Gris Gris' to the third line New Orleans funk of 'Desitively Bonaroo'. The sound is pin-sharp sounding remastered to me which is a boon since some of the original CD issues of the albums covered by this compilation date from the early '90s and as a result sound a bit 'thin' in comparison. Regarding the music the most significant observation is that the 1st CD contains the ENTIRETY (!) of Dr. John's '68 masterpiece, 'Gris Gris' which suffice to say is some of the eeriest yet accessible music ever made. In addition the 1st CD contains other choice tracks from the Doctor's late 60's / early 70's "voodoo" phase taking songs from 'Babylon' and 'Sun, Moon & Herbs' (in the latter instance the whole album split over CD1 & CD2) though curiously nothing from 'Remedies' (and therefore sadly does not include one of my favorites the joyous "Mardi Gras Day"). The selections are pretty solid though obviously you can nit-pick about the exact picks, for example I'd like to have seen space for "Glowin'" which is my favorite track from 'Babylon' but space limitations and the fact that all of 'Gris Gris' and 'Sun, Moon & Herbs' are here here makes omissions such as these forgiveable. The second CD is pure gold containing the balance of 'Sun, Moon & Herbs' and an intelligent selection of tracks from Dr. John's New Orleans roots excavation "Gumbo" (6 tracks) and the Doctor's two New Orleans funk classics; "In The Right Place" (6 tracks) and "Desitively Bonaroo" (6 tracks). No complaints about any of the selections here and the latter half of CD2 contains some of the funkiest music ever laid down in the 1970's (he was being produced by Allen Toussaint and backed up by the Meters at the time which should be recommendation enough!). Therefore in conclusion 2+ hours of some of the best (and original) music of the late '60s / early '70s for under a fiver you'd be a fool to pass on this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Night Tripper pleases, 29 Mar 2009

By	SA Brain (London UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A two CD collection of Dr John's work. The first CD a showcase of the more experimental earlier works with the Cajun New Orleans magic roots clearly visible;the second CD showing the Night Tripper's range of skills including the seriously funky, up there with Funkadelic and the best. A brilliant price for the recording one for real fans.
