This LP features two New Orleans bands both sounding in excellent form in 1962. Trombonist Jim Robinson gets one of his rare opportunities to lead a group and his pianoless sextet with trumpeter Ernie Cagnolatti and clarinetist Louis Cottrell stretches out with spirit on four strong ensemble-oriented numbers. For the flip-side pianist Billie Pierce and her husband, trumpeter De De Pierce, head a sextet with trombonist Louis Nelson and clarinetist George Lewis on five songs, highlighted by Billie's vocal on "Love Songs of the Nile." The set is far superior to many of the later Preservation Hall-type recordings and this valuable music should be reissued on CD. (review by Scott Yanow-allmusic.com)

In the Sixties, New Orleans piano player Mac Rebennack moved to L.A., encountered California psychedelia, rechristened himself Dr. John, the Night Tripper, and made this swamp-funk classic. GRIS-Gris blends New Orleans R&B, voodoo chants and chemical inspiration. (500 Greatest Albums of All Time, #132, Rolling Stone)

Now we're talkin' tasty jazz. Thanks, and thanks again.

Thanks for this piece of history.
Thanks so much for both of these! Two sides of the N.O. coin.
In 1968 I saw Dr. John at the Fillmore in San Francisco in a show with Thelonious Monk and The Charlatans, who then included Dan Hicks. Dr. John was like something I'd never before seen all dressed in furs and feathers and shaking some voodoo juice at the audience. I was most impressed by the African chicks all in costume dancing about the stage.
Bill Graham really knew how to present a show back then.
Many thanks. I Love Songs Of The Nile!
Thanks for Dr J.
