In the Right Place--Dr. John | The Story Behind the Album Cover Art

Send us Fan Mail A sun that eats planets. A hippie demigod on a moon throne. Winged dogs chasing nursery-rhyme fugitives. And yes—two cupcake bottoms staring straight back at you. Dr. John’s In the Right Place isn’t just an album cover; it’s a psychedelic scavenger hunt through the swampy subconscious of New Orleans. Artist James Flournoy Holmes built a whole universe around the Night Tripper—equal parts voodoo magic, cosmic mischief, and bayou funk—and somehow it all makes sense once the music starts spinning.
