[Music] Dr John RIP

[Super Steve Earle]

Sorry to read of his death from a heart attack. Saw him at The Dome in the 70s in full on gris gris mode for a wonderful, unforgettable carnival of colour and music. RIP sir.

Saw him a few times over the years. Last time was a couple of years ago and he was looking quite frail. Needed a couple of sticks to walk onto the stage.
Still put on a great show though. A true original. RIP.

Gris Gris is a bit of a masterpiece imo. Walk on guilded splinters being the highlight. RIP.

I was there! It was a Saturday evening and I was out on the town with some friends. Somehow we stumbled into The Dome without paying. I was on another planet! Seeing him live in full regalia under such circumstances was an experience that I’ll never forget, although I’m surprised that I can even remember being there.

Saw him at the Barbican a good few years ago and he was superb
A true original who will be sorely missed

RIP indeed, one of the greats of Blues/Jazz.
I have loved him for years....saw him live in Leicester some years back...a wonderful concert.

Thanks to the good doctor for the music he gave us..
