gris-gris

“Producer Harold Battiste gave the record his style of psycho-delphia," Dr. John says of the album "Gris-Gris." "I didn’t want to be the front man but (singer) Ronnie Barron’s manager thought it would be a bad career move for him. My conga player ‘Didymus’ told me that if Bob Dylan can sing, then I can sing, too." Photo courtesy of Dr. John.
