Founded in 1967, the 'Montreux Jazz Festival' has established itself as one of the most prestigious annual music events in the world. The extraordinary list artists who have played there is drawn from across the musical spectrum and fro around the world. Dr. John's distinctive brand of "voodoo" blues combining his inventive piano playing, gravelly voice and the pure essence of New Orleans has made him both a much admired and much loved character in a career that stretches over forty years. Dr. John has graced the Montreux stage on six occasions but this concert from 1995 was his personal choice. It is an exceptional performance and includes classic tracks such as Iko Iko and Right Place, Wrong Time. As a bonus, there are three additional songs from his earlier concert in 1986.
