Years ago torch singer Lisa Karp walked fresh into NYC from Williamsport PA to pursue her music career and met Dr John outside a venue. Long story short, they become friends. In their first collaboration in the year 2000, Dr John asked her to write lyrics for a swing tune he was recording with the Max Weinberg 7. On this release, Dr John sings a nice duet with her on track 2, co-arranges tracks 1 and 3, and plays most of the instruments on track 6. -Pete
