Dr. John’s Long-Lost 1988 Concert Unearthed: Live at the Village Gate Set for Release

​Previously unreleased 1988 performance from the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, showcasing standout songs spanning his remarkable career.
​

​Mac Rebennack, the legendary Dr. John reshaped the sound of popular music from the moment he released his groundbreaking 1968 debut Gris Gris. Over the next five decades, he continued to expand his musical vocabulary with every album, blending fresh influences, reinventing traditions, and delivering unforgettable hits including “Right Place, Wrong Time” and “Such a Night.” His creativity never slowed, and the world was fortunate to receive a steady stream of music from him until his passing in 2019.

The Estate of Dr. John and Omnivore Recordings now proudly unveil Live at the Village Gate, a previously unheard concert recording captured on March 5, 1988. Unless you were in the room that night, this is the first opportunity to experience this electrifying performance. The set features standout renditions of classics such as “Mess Around,” “Georgia On My Mind,” “Mardi Gras Day,” and even a fan-requested “Mama Roux” from Gris Gris all delivered with Dr. John’s unmistakable mastery.
​
Expertly restored and mastered by multiple Grammy-winning engineer Michael Graves, Live at the Village Gate also includes newly penned, in-depth liner notes by The Second Disc’s Joe Marchese. With more than 90 minutes of vintage live Dr. John, this release invites listeners to “let the good times roll” once again. Experience Live at the Village Gate.
