Gris-Gris (stylized as GRIS-gris, /ˈɡriːˌɡriː/, named for a kind of talisman) is the debut album by American musician Dr. John (a.k.a. Mac Rebennack)...

The Wire included Gris Gris in their 1998 list of "100 Records That Set the World on Fire (While No One Was Listening)". The staff wrote that the album fused inspired instrumental combinations with electronic treatments "that owed much to post-Spector LA studio trickery", resulting in music that "constantly unbalanced the ear's efforts to place the music within a continuation of music history. Plas Johnson's playing in particular sounds more like steam powered organ played at a lizard funeral rather than conventional reeds." - Wikipedia

Livin' With The Blues by Barbara Dane released on Dot Records in 1959.

"On Livin with the Blues (1959), she belts out her message in an all-star group conducted by pianist Earl Hines. It is interesting to hear the splendid trumpet work of Benny Carter, Shelly Manne playing traditional drums, and Plas Johnson soloing to good effect in this context." - Fresh Sound Records

The Pink Panther Theme

In a world where the credits roll long after the film is over, we lost the great composer Henry Mancini on this day exactly thirty years ago.

Today’s feature is the timeless piece known as ‘The Pink Panther Theme’ which became synonymous with a series of hilarious film starring the legendary actor Peter Sellers.
