discreet Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) [b]Doctor John - Locked Down - Woah![/b] There haven't been many recordings I've heard recently where I've thought, 'Woah, I've got to get hold of this [i]right now![/i]' But last night I heard Dr John's new album 'Locked Down' and it's bloody magnificent. Some really world-class playing, great feel and groove, superb production, new, fresh ideas and a return to form for the old night tripper himself. The bass and drums on this album are just astonishing.[i] [/i] Produced by Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys - which tells you all you need to know, really. If your thing is even anywhere [i]near [/i]this, you owe it to yourself to at least give it a listen - every track on the album is a winner - no padding! Guaranteed! This YouTube teaser gives you only the slightest inkling... [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxAmqxTyxe4[/media] That is all!

urb Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I've only heard the track with Marcus M on it - of maybe I'm getting confused with the tune on his new album featuring Dr John - anyway whichever album it's on it's stonking stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 [quote name='Hector' timestamp='1338034306' post='1668856'] Any recommendations for similar stuff? [/quote] Not really similar (imho), but I keep being drawn back to El Camino (The Black Keys). Covers a lot of ground musically, great playing, brilliant retro production and yet fresh, exciting and interesting...
