Gris-Gris is the debut album by Dr. John (Mac Rebennack). Produced by Harold Battiste, it was released on Atco Records in 1968. The musical style of Gris-Gris is a hybrid of New Orleans rhythm and blues and psychedelic rock. Despite the New Orleans style, it was recorded in California, albeit with several native New Orleans musicians. Gris-Gris failed to chart in the United Kingdom and the United States.

The self-proclaimed Night Tripper, New Orleans musician Dr John, who died from a heart attack on 7 June 2019, at the age of 77, left an insurmountable legacy that made him a huge influence among musicians. Early years: from New Orleans to The Wrecking Crew. Born Malcolm John Rebennack Jr, in New Orleans, on 20 November 1941, John started out playing guitar and bass as a teenager. In 1968, following the release of his debut album, Gris-Gris, he introduced the world to his outlandish stage alter ego, Dr John Creaux The Night Tripper, capturing the weirdness and vibrancy of the Latin Quarter in his shows. He weaved voodoo incantations and bayou patois into a mix of piano, percussion, horns and vocal chants that fused New Orleans music with elements of rock and psychedelia.

Dr John would enter popular culture as the inspiration for a Muppet (Dr Teeth) and can be heard most mornings singing the theme tune of Curious George on Disney Junior. But Creaux was a far from child-friendly proposition in 1967 as he and his backing singers itemised the remedies in his little satchel. Mumbling and leering as though completely out of his brain, he listed potions including dragon’s blood (medicinal resin), balls fix jam (to be eaten with breakfast) and sacred sand.

During early to mid-1969, Dr. John toured extensively, backed by supporting musicians Richard "Didymus" Washington (congas), Richard Crooks (drums), David L. Johnson (bass), Gary Carino (guitar), and singers Eleanor Barooshian, Jeanette Jacobs from The Cake, and Sherry Graddie. 1972's Dr. John's Gumbo, an album covering several New Orleans R&B standards with only one original, is considered a cornerstone of New Orleans music. In his 1994 autobiography, Under a Hoodoo Moon, Dr. John writes, "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 late 1940s and 1950s.
