Gris-Gris

Dr. John

Mac Rebennack created this project by adopting a shamanic character. The sessions utilized dense, atmospheric production to capture the rhythmic essence of the bayou.

The final result sounds unlike other music from that era. It mixes New Orleans mysticism with a dark, hypnotic quality that mimics a fever dream.
