    This is from the "Learn Blues Piano at home with Dr. John" series. I watched these religiously on VHS when I was just starting to learn piano. My favorite part was that at the beginning of each video he seemed super nervous. Then about halfway through the lesson you'd see a half consumed glass of bourbon on the piano and he'd suddenly seem so much more comfortable :)

    Dr. John was one of the most influential musicians to ever fly under the radar. This guy worked with the best of the best. His only big radio hit was "Right Place, Wrong Time" but his list of work spans decades. Look him up playing blues with the late, great Johnny Winter and you'll see how it's done.
    His name is spoken when musicians talk about musical greats.

    Saw this utter legend at the Sage, Gateshead in about 2009. To my shame I’d never heard of him but my then-girlfriend said I’d regret it if I missed it. He was getting on a bit and took a couple of tunes to warm up, but once he shook the rust off his hands the man set that piano on fire, and his voice was even more characterful and expressive than in this video. By the end of the show the room was yelling and whistling like they were watching a 25-year-old rock band, rather than a man in his twilight years. Thanks Lindsay, you were right about a lot of things.
