Here's How This Went. Dr. John Was Going Back And Forth
Between New Orleans And Nyc And Had A Place Not Far
From The Lone Star Cafe So He Played There On A Regular Basis.
We Had Many Chances To Hang Out With Him At The Shows
And He Always Had Great Stories. He Gave Me The Ok To Plug
Into The Board This Night. At The Time Of This Show, Dr. John's
Bass Player Was The Great Wilbur Bascomb. Wilbur Was Also
Working With Mick Taylor's Band. Between Shows I Was In
The Dressing Room With My Good Friend Bobby When Mick
Came In To See Wilbur. I Noticed This And Mentioned It
To My Friend And Suggested That Maybe Mick Could Sit In
With Dr. John. We First Went To Dr. John And Told Him That
Mick Would Like To Sit In For A Few. We Then Said To Mick
That Dr. John Would Like Him To Sit In. Apparently Our Little
Plan Worked As They Both Agreed. Mick Came Up For Three Songs.
Probably Not Being Too Familiar With The New Orleans Style,
During The First Song He Seemed A Little Unsure Of Himself.
After The First Song I Was At The Sb Calling For
A Blues Since I Knew Mick Would Do Better In That Setting.
The Second Song Was A Medium Tempo Blues Shuffle And
It Was Good For Everyone. The Final Song Was Pretty Straight Ahead
And Worked Well Too.
