Go to http://distrokid.com/vip/the500 for 30% off your first year!*** Dr. John first became a star by taking the sounds and traditions of New Orleans blues, jazz, and R&B and twisting them into new forms. The style of Gris-Gris is a hybrid of traditional New Orleans R&B elements and psychedelia. Wayne Federman returns to talk about one of New Orleans’ proudest sons.
