Die Veröffentlichung der Montreux Years Serie ist eine Sammlung von Dr. Johns besten Auftritten beim Montreux Jazz Festival zwischen 1986 und 2012. Wunderschön restauriert und perfektioniert.

Eng identifiziert mit den reichen musikalischen Wurzeln seiner heimischen New Orleans, Dr. Johns bemerkenswertes musikalisches Erbe umfasst Funk, Blues, Jazz, Boogie-Woogie, Rock und Pop. Der selbsternannte Night Tripper entwickelte mit der Veröffentlichung seines ersten Major-Label-Albums, Gris-Gris im Jahr 1968, einen Kult, und sein Gebräu von Voodoo-Inkantionen hinterließ einen unüberwindbaren Einfluss unter Musikern. Durch die Verschmelzung von New Orleans Musik mit Elementen aus Rock und Psychedelie haben Dr. Johns Showmanship und aufwendige Kopfbedeckungen die Fantasie der Fans auf der ganzen Welt gefangen.

Dr. John: Die Montreux Years ist eine musikalische Reise für Fans, die in die einzigartigen Stile und Aufnahmen einer der größten Ikonen der Musik eintauchen können. Mit Verweisen auf New Orleans Boogie Piano beginnt die Schallplatte mit "Professor Longhair Boogie" und "You Ain't Such a Much".

Dr. John
The legendary Dr. John is a six-time Grammy Award-winning musician and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee. Known throughout the world as the embodiment of New Orleans’ musical legacy, Dr. John is a true icon in American culture. His colorful musical career began in the 1950s when he wrote and played guitar on some of the greatest records to come out of the Crescent City, including recordings by Professor Longhair, Art Neville, Joe Tex and Frankie Ford.

Dr. John headed west in the 1960s, where he continued to be in demand as a session musician, playing on records by Sonny and Cher, Van Morrison, Aretha Franklin and The Rolling Stones' “Exile On Main St.” During that time he launched his solo career, developing the charismatic persona of Dr. John The Nite Tripper. A legend was born with his breakthrough 1968 album “Gris-Gris,” which introduced to the world his unique blend of voodoo mysticism, funk, rhythm & blues, psychedelic rock and Creole roots. Several of his many career highlights include the masterful album “Sun, Moon and Herbs” in 1971 which included cameos from Eric Clapton and Mick Jagger and 1973’s “In The Right Place,” which contained the chart hits “Right Place Wrong Time” and “Such A Night.”

In addition to his six Grammy wins (1989, 1992, 1996, 2000, 2008 and 2013), he has received six other Grammy nominations over the years. In 2007 he was nominated for “Sippiana Hericane,” his Hurricane Katrina benefit disc. After Hurricane Katrina Dr. John immediately stepped up to the plate with generous relief fund-raising concerts and recordings. In 2007 he was also inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame and the Blues Hall of Fame. In 2008 he released “City That Care Forgot,” winning him a Grammy for Best Contemporary Blues Album. His latest album "Locked Down", released in 2012 with Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys also won a Grammy for Best Contemporary Blues Album.

In 2013 Dr. John was awarded an honorary doctorate from Tulane University alongside His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Dr. John is currently hard at work completing an album in tribute to Louis Armstrong which is scheduled to be released in July of this year. After a half century of creating music for others and himself, Dr. John continues to write, arrange, produce and interpret with a passion that has yet to wane.
