Right Place, Right Time: Live At Tipitina’s Mardi Gras 1989 by the one and only Dr. John comes at a critical time in the history of New Orleans. Perhaps the greatest living purveyor of the Big Easy’s rich musical legacy, Mac Rebennack, aka Dr. John, is captured here on volume two of “The Rebennack Chronicles” recorded at the historic New Orleans’ nightclub Tipitina’s on Mardi Gras Day 1989. Backed by a seven-piece band, Dr. John delivers classic renditions of staples like “Junco Partner,” “Let The Good Times Roll” and “I Walk On Guilded Splinters” among others. As the follow up to All By Hisself: Live At The Lonestar (volume one of “The Rebennack Chronicles”), this latest release presents an entirely different side of Dr. John. Performing on the biggest night of the year in his hometown, the music is high octane and pure energy. Mac rips through a set of big beat, funk-laden Dr. John classics. It’s a treasure for Dr. John fans and a wonderful document of the impact New Orleans’ culture has on American music to this day.
