Dr John definitely deserves his name in the rock and roll hall of fame. I saw him perform with BB King, at a concert in Greensboro, NC. I loved the way he performed, and plays that piano. He has a unique style of his own.

Although he's recorded some real clunkers, Mac definitely deserves inclusion for his studio work as a teenager; for his best three solo albums: The Night Tripper, Gumbo and Right Place - Right Time; and for his 'Dr. John plays Mac Rebbenack' solo piano LPs.

I had the absolute pleasure of working for him for a way-too-brief while. I kind of fell into it, having left behind the East Coast and now working more in California (all in rock). I temporarily moved in with his road manager, and so it was natural to then hang out with Mac and his then-wife, and then go on a short tour. My ex-boyfriend worked with him for a lot longer.

Mac was -- and still is -- a gentle, gentle sweet soul. And he's effing talented! I can remember many an evening sitting next to or near him as he sat down at his piano and just jammed. I loved his entire family, too.

HOT STUFF! Bonaroo!

Yes, Dr. John SHOULD be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!!

Mac is an amazing pianist -- I don't really know what else to say...just listen to his music and you'll understand.
