Another legend has gone on to the great gig in the sky. Rest In Peace sir and thank you for all the great music.
Saw him at the Muse on Nantucket Island back in the day with his band the Lower 911. From another planet musically. RIP Night Tripper.
RIP - NOLA won’t be the same, kinda like when Fats, Toussaint and other NO legends left us over the years.
I saw him at Jazzfest in New Orleans years ago in the 90's. Great show! It was around that time he had a duet with Rickie Lee Jones, Makin' Whoopee. RIP
I’m sad about this. Mac was truly an original, one of a kind. A musician’s musician. I wore out his Gris-Gris vinyl back when it came out. He had a good, full life of great accomplishments, not the least of which was kicking a serious heroin addiction and remaining sober the last ~30 years of his life. I’ll be celebrating in his second line, from 700 miles away.
