and SPECIAL GUEST and original Gumbo Drummer Freddie Staehle.

As Dr. John wrote in his 1994 autobiography, Under a Hoodoo Moon, “In 1972, I recorded Gumbo, an album that was both a tribute to and my interpretation of the music I had grown up with in New Orleans in the 1940s and 1950s. I tried to keep a lot of the little changes that were characteristic of New Orleans, while working my own funknology on piano and guitar.”
