    I discovered Dr John after I visited New Orleans, and I thought he was a pretty good pianist. I was very wrong. He is a LEGEND!

      I'm1978 and I get told all the time. I grew up in the wrong decade as by the time I was making my own choices, it was the 90s, and music aint been anywere near as kl ,since the 70s in my humble opinion

    Man, that voice is just indescribably good for this music. What a legendary, once-every-generation musician he is. He doesn't get the respect that he really deserves, in my opinion. Like, it is insane that I had never even heard of this master NOLA musician, Dr. John, until years and years later, and I actually do know a helluva lot of music from that era. I'm a younger fella (23), and I am just so glad to have discovered this amazing work by an amazing musician. Truly in a class of his own.

    I recently finished the Levon Helm biography and he said it ironic Dr. Jon chose this song because he was actually becoming involved with Levons then wife Libby due to them going through problems. A year later or so Dr Jon and Libby married I believe or at least became a couple. Levon held no grudge or ill feelings and gave them his blessing.
    Still love this song. Speaks to me and a few situations in life that were similar. One I wish I could take back and one that brought me and my fiance together.
    Sorry but if I don't do it, somebody else will.
