Eric
Clapton, Willie Nelson, Ani Difranco és Terence Blanchard csatlakozott
Dr. John -hoz ebben a zenés hálaénekben amelyben Dr. John szól
szeretett New Orleansához. A Katrina utáni válságokról szóló felkavaró
és gondolatokat ébresztő dalok hangzanak el, köztük a City That Care
Forgot, a Time for a Change, a Promises, Promises, a We Gettin There.
City
That Care Forgot opens with "Keep On Goin'," a jazz-flavored song with
a funky roll and John's signature piano work. The song's gentle nature
and easy livin' lyrics disarm the listener before Dr. John and crew get
to the meat of the matter with the following tune, "Time For A Change."
Built on a loping, phat R&B groove, and featuring stellar
guitarwork courtesy of Eric Clapton, the song's message is that of
individual responsibility, environmental concern, and corporate
malfeasance, delivered in no uncertain terms. If "Time For A Change"
sets the stage for the socially-conscious work that follows, John's
lively duet with Willie Nelson, "Promises Promises," is a real
scorcher. Set to an energetic Zydeco rhythm, Nelson and John swap
verses damning ignorant politicians and praising the soldiers that give
their lives for our freedom. On the flip side, "You Might Be Surprised"
is a slow-paced, Neville Brothers-styled R&B ballad with positive
lyrics in an almost spiritual vein.
