Product Details

Mac Rebennack was a New Orleans session guitarist and songwriter long before he became Dr. John, and these solo piano recordings strip away the Mardi Gras pageantry to reveal the deep roots underneath. Hearing him work through his own catalog alone at the keyboard is a reminder that the Night Tripper persona was always just one dimension of one of the Crescent City's most complete musicians.

Two CD set. This treasure takes The Legendary Sessions Vol. 1 and adds five unissued cuts to the bounty, including two cuts exclusive to this CD version! "With this solo piano performance, he romps, he stomps, he lays back, he makes the keys cry and he makes them jump for joy." - Randy Lewis (Los Angeles Times)
