Hello i'm Barry and welcome to #BarrysViews and this is my #Tribute to Malcolm John Rebennack (November 20, 1941 – June 6, 2019), better known by his stage name #DrJohn who was an American singer and songwriter. His music combined blues, pop, jazz, boogie woogie and rock and roll.[1]
Active as a session musician from the late 1950s until his death, he gained a following in the late 1960s after the release of his album Gris-Gris and his appearance at the Bath Festival of Blues and Progressive Music. He performed a lively, theatrical stage show inspired by medicine shows, Mardi Gras costumes and voodoo ceremonies. Rebennack recorded more than 20 albums and in 1973 produced a top-10 hit, "Right Place, Wrong Time".
The winner of six Grammy Awards, Rebennack was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by singer John Legend in March 2011.[2] In May 2013, Rebennack received an honorary doctorate of fine arts from Tulane University.[3]
