In Stores Tomorrow: Dr. John, THE ATCO ALBUMS COLLECTION

If you’re someone who enjoys a good bayou boogaloo (providing that boogalooing is legal in your particular bayou, of course) and you live outside the U.S., then you’ll be pleased to learn that, come tomorrow, you’ll be able to pick up a copy of Dr. John’s THE ATCO ALBUMS COLLECTION. If you're in the U.S., you can grab it digitally. And don’t worry about the fact that Atlantic Records president Ahmet Ertegun once gazed upon Dr. John’s debut album, GRIS-GRIS, and asked, “How can we market this boogaloo crap?” It’s nearly 50 years later, and Dr. John is a music legend. Does anything else even matter?

If you’re a fan of the good doctor, then you may have snapped up the digital version of this set when we issued it back in 2014, but there’s a big difference between that version and this version, which is that these seven albums have all been remastered for your listening enjoyment, thereby making it a must-own once more.
