Producer and GRP Records president Tommy LiPuma, a longtime
associate of Dr. Johns, revived his old Blue Thumb label as an
imprint of GRP/MCA with this album, which served as something of
a sequel to the last Dr. John/Tommy LiPuma collaboration, In a
Sentimental Mood. On that earlier album, the two had covered pop
standards. Here, they again turned to evergreens by the likes of
Irving Berlin and Duke Ellington. But if Sentimental Mood was
stylistically linked to the 20s and 30s, Afterglow was more a
recreation of the late 40s and early 50s, with its big-band
arrangements and the inclusion of jump blues numbers like Louis
Jordans “I Know What Ive Got.” Such songs allowed Dr. John
plenty of room to play his trademark New Orleans piano solos,
and, in the second half of the record, some of the Doctors own
compositions were snuck in among the classics without disturbing
the mood. Of course, the dominant sound remained Dr. Johns
gravel-and-honey voice, an even more appropriate instrument for
these bluesier standards than it was for the Sentimental ones.
