Farewell, Dr. John

A favorite musician for The Hubby left this world last week.  He's seen Dr. John at several venues over the years, since he was a huge music fan.   The Hubby was/is a bonafide hippie, just so you know.  My one and only time enjoying a live Dr. John performance was years ago in Detroit.

Dr. John's music defies definition, yet he's had several big jazzy, rock-and-roll hits, that continue to get radio air-time today.  My favorite: "Right Place Wrong Time"



I found no images online of Dr. John with a cat, but his super-long ponytail with its many bands of colors kind of look like a cat's tail.  In addition, in the jazz world, where Dr. John lived, a 'cat' has another meaning...

R.I.P. Dr. John, Night Tripper
