Billboard CD reviews: Dr. John, Motley Crue

(Cached page) Reuters - There's been no shortage of
thoughtful musical responses to Hurricane Katrina, but this
album-length elegy by one of the city's foremost voices stands
as something like the Mitchell Report of the bunch. "City That
Care Forgot" is a righteous service indeed, all rage and soul
and careful optimism, a place where the ballads drip and burn
as much as the rockers, the barbs come quick and sharp ("Say
it's a job well done, then you giggled like a bitch, and hopped
back on the Air Force One"), and the best prognosis that the
doctor can muster is, "We're getting there." Dr. John has
enlisted much help here, including that of Eric Clapton, Willie
Nelson and Terence Blanchard, and his own Lower 911 band can
churn up bayou funk at the snap of a finger. But though "City"
is a vicious rebuke, its greater power comes from its being
shot through with a deep love and a deeper sadness.
