Our Take

Dr. John & The Lower 911's latest offering, "Tribalin," is a wild and funky ride through the heart of New Orleans. The legendary Dr. John, with his gravelly vocals and piano skills that could make even Ray Charles jealous, leads the band through a swampy mix of blues, jazz, and funk.

From the opening track, "Bayou Boogie," it's clear that the Lower 911 are on a mission to get your hips shaking and your feet tapping. The infectious grooves and soulful melodies make it impossible to sit still while listening to this album. Dr. John's lyrics are filled with references to voodoo, Mardi Gras, and all things New Orleans, giving the music a mystical and otherworldly vibe.

The band's tight and energetic playing keeps the momentum going throughout the entire album, never letting up for a moment. The rhythm section is rock solid, laying down a funky foundation for the horns to dance over. And Dr. John's piano playing is as masterful as ever, showcasing his unique blend of blues, jazz, and boogie-woogie.

Overall, "Tribalin" is a must-listen for fans of New Orleans music and anyone looking to inject a bit of soul and groove into their day. Dr. John & The Lower 911 have once again proven why they are legends in the music industry, delivering a timeless and exhilarating album that will have you coming back for more. Trust me, you won't be able to resist the call of the bayou after giving this one a spin.
