Six-time Grammy award winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member Malcolm John Rebennack, also known as Dr. John, died June 6 from a heart attack at 77.
Dr. John pursued his interest in music during the 1950s, and he played for the Rolling Stones, Aretha Franklin, and Van Morrison. When he began working on music on his own during the 1960s, he began calling himself “Dr. John, The Nite Tripper.” His song, “Right Place, Wrong Time,” went to number 24 on the Billboard 200 in 1973. Most recently, he won a Grammy in 2012 for his album, Locked Down.
