TalkBack with Dr. John

John Swenson talks to the New Orleans legend Dr. John - Mac Rebennack - about Chris Rose, Bobby Charles, and his political new CD, City That Care Forgot. "Since the storm I've lost a lot of friends--Chuck Carbo, Willie Tee, Alvin Batiste, Earl Turbinton. People who were gonna be on this record," Rebennack says. "There was a song of Willie's I wanted to do desperately bad about the crack in the Liberty Bell. There was a song Alvin Batiste had that I wanted to put in between songs on this record. It was just on and on with this record; plans were just passing away."
