    Dr. John "Locked Down" - 2012 LP

    My studio is my office, my sanctuary, my retreat.  I'm there everyday and everyday an idea is executed or a project is completed...Picasso completed over 50,000 paintings....I want to beat that......Other than studio visits, the occasional assistant, or a client dropping by to say hi......I'm there alone.....Total isolation....Complete knuckle to the grindstone creativity.....The only road block bringing my ideas to life is....myself.....Today I do not feel alone.....there is something or somebody in the studio....I can't see anyone near me...I didn't invite anyone today.....but something is here....a presence.....voodoo baby....What happens when Dan Auerbach from The Black Keys gets ahold of a music legend???? Apparently magic.....voodoo magic.  Dr. John is one of America's greatest treasures.  An icon.  The Dr.'s 2012 effort, with the help of Auerbach, is sure to be on a majority of "Best Of" lists this year.....This album is silly good....gospel rock/afro beat elements/retro rock/part psych/a little bit of everything in this dark rockin' masterpiece:
