Actual shipping time varies by destination.

RETURNS: We generally do not accept returns except if something is not as described, and we take care to make sure everything fits our description. Sometimes CDs or vinyl will have a "cut-out" slice or "promo punch" either in the corner or through the UPC code - we will include this in the description if applicable. If there is a problem with an item, contact us and we will figure out the best action to take. We do NOT accept returns if you decide you simply don't like the item, or have buyer's remorse - buy wisely, and ask questions if necessary. Damage incurred during shipping should be brought up with the carrier but is extremely rare as we box everything adequately, including using extra cardboard for protection.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMBINING SHIPPING ON MULTIPLE ITEMS WE SELL:

Use "Add To Cart". Before paying, there is a button marked "Ask Seller For A Total" - click this. Wait one business day for us to change the invoice or else it will charge you full shipping for each item (we will not refund extra shipping once paid). This may not work from a phone, only a computer. We have to change shipping by hand - typically we charge what is close to the actual cost with maybe a $1 USD handling fee per item to cover the cost of packing materials.

Item Summary:

Somewhere between the New Orleans boogie-woogie rhythms of Professor Longhair and the blues-inflected hard rock of Eric Clapton lies Malcolm John Rebennack, best known by his stage name, Dr. John, The Night Tripper. (Later simply Dr. John) Prolific since the late 1950s, when he made his start as a session musician, later developing a staunch cult following in the 1960s, for his theatrical, elaborate live shows, and darkly psychedelic music, which frequently took cues and inspiration from voodoo ceremonies. As the 1970s went on his music gradually incorporated elements of New Orleans funk and Tin Pan Alley standards, with Billboard chart success following him, as well as numerous Grammy awards.

Dr. John's first taste of mainstream success came in 1971, near the tail-end of his "voodoo" period of music. The Sun, Moon & Herbs was intended to be a three-album set, but was whittled down to a single LP upon its release. Recorded in London, its heart clearly was in New Orleans, containing a murky, foreboding sound, and filled with references to Cajun folklore, and thickly atmospheric production. It was Dr. John's first to reach the Billboard 200 charts, and it included contributions from Eric Clapton, Mick Jagger, and The Memphis Horns. The Sun, Moon & Herbs was the last of Dr. John's works as The Night Tripper, before he embarked towards cleaner, and more commercially viable efforts. A must-have for any fan of 70s psychedelia.
