Dr. John - Iko Iko (Live at Montreux 1995)

[@richardmichael1277]

No one enjoys life more than musicians that make good music playing together or as a solo performer.

[@titoqwentezproductionz3406]

damn str8

[@STSGuitar16]

That feeling you get when your band is really cooking is better than any drug out there!

[@richardseegman803]

That first 1/2 minute when the other musicians and singers play in front of an empty big black grand piano, then here comes Dr. John out from backstage with his cane and tears the place up. WOW

[@STSGuitar16]

Doesn’t get much cooler than that

[@STSGuitar16]

Dr. John swag unmatched to this very day

[@andrewlowe9969]

If this doesn't make you like jazz/funk fusion nothing will! Dr. John was a genius at the keys and singing both. He truly is the ambassador musician of New Orleans. His influences and reverence for the greats including Jelly Roll Morton and Louis Armstrong are profound to him as he said in an interview that was the most genuine I've ever seen. His "voodoo" blues are an amazing contribution to Jazz. I'm going to find out if there is a tribute band that covers Dr. John in New Orleans. It wouldn't be a trip there if there is one to see and take in. God bless you Mac in the heavens you are greatly missed but we know you are having a big party with all the greats that have left us before.

[@excelsior1455]

Excellent Tribute, Andrew

[@MrRezillo]

Best version of Iko I've ever heard; kick ass! And he lets all the horns solo.

[@jszisson]

Indeed!

[@nexususer4343]

Check out the one he does with Jeff Healy, David Sanborn, and the house band from NBC Sunday Night back in the 80s. Mavis Staples was on the same episode. It's epic

[@davebeach2343]

Dr. John put on one of the best concerts I've seen in my 50 plus years of concert going. From the start with the band showing off it's talent and chemistry, to the good Dr's strutting debonair walk to the stage through the crowd, the entire evening was about the music and having a celebration together. IMHO, he's one of the most funky players ever, and his absence will be felt deeply. R. I. P.

[@zenacohen1263]

worked with him on the business side fr many years a wonderful caring individual

[@davidmcbrayer4177]

Dr John was a legend. That whole band was great as well. I love Charlie Miller’s trumpet.

[@paulblakey4589]

A Sad sad loss, you brought much happiness to many. Thank you for that Malcolm John Rebennack Jr. - alias Dr. John.

[@bholaoates1542]

One of the greatest American songwriters of the last half century. I don't think he gets enough credit for that. RIP, good doctor.

[@STSGuitar16]

Truly timeless music. I think much of the same could be said for Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead as well. There is just such a timelessness to their and Dr. John’s music as if it has just always existed.

[@roberthardman8749]

And the light of the world has dimmed just a bit..God bless

[@paulareneelee2440]

Oh God, no. He'll be missed!

[@thomastimlin1724]

With all of his various talents combined, his piano playing .just elevates everything. It just oozes style, technique and talent. And he really knows his jazz chords, not just boogie piano chords, I-IV, V stuff. He will be missed....he's right up there level with Ramsey Lewis and the rest of the jazz talents...[from a musician].RIP

[@MrRezillo]

You nailed it!

[@007bttb]

I was 15 years old when I saw the most amazing performer in City Park NOLA .I PUSH my way to the front (Very hard)and was rewarded with the most incredible performance on this planet .GOD rest your soul. My Nawlins brother 🎹🎶🎹🎶🎹

[@pattyburton4051]

[@Voyageur314]

The man passes but His music lives forever.

[@joecollier8924]

Rough time for New Orleans, first the Queen of Creole Cooking, now Dr. John. Two Louisiana legends gone within a week. RIP Leah Chase and Dr. John

[@howardwaxman2514]

Dr. John was the coolest of the cool. Had hundreds of songs. Hot rhythms&grooves. Followed him since the 60s. Never put out a bad record, why,? because he was "BAD"!!! Here at Montreaux he's with a first class musical machine, what he deserves! He walked on gilded splinters and showed the world his Nawlins roots. An American Treasure in heaven with Satch and all the other Legends!

[@mariahahn-silva2892]

Laissez les bons temps rouler avec vous au ciel, Dr. John!

[@stephendawg1]

Dr John was a monster! Love his style! RIP

[@alanmorris7669]

I'm so glad I got a chance to see Dr John in person before he died. It was at the Charlotte Jazz Festival in 1993, and he brought the house down!

Eclectic exuberant effusive and effervescent combines retro vintage jazz slim Harpo and jelly roll Morton with lyric improvisation and scatting skin to Ella Fitzgerald Louie Armstrong Dinah Washington Brook Benton. Cheers. God bless.

[@BluesCat1980]

This is so much better than that artist that has redone and rewrote it. If it ain't got New Orleans feel, I don't wanna hear it.
