Coco Robicheaux - Spiritland

"The long-awaited debut disc by the one-and-only Coco Robicheaux, man of many stories with voice of honey under gravel...to this writers ears, Spiritland speaks eloquent testimony to the depth of feeling and breadth of vision Coco brings to his music. The 10 original compositions that make up this album have been written and scored out of the circumstances of Coco's life experience, and each directly reflects an aspects of the unique Robicheaux reality."
John Sinclair WWOZ DJ/Poet

Coco Robicheaux
Louisiana Medicine Man

My hoodoo clued me how to dig for the magikal roots...
How to boil 'em down, til the water turn brown from the juice.
The rite kinda oil, the rite kinda roux,
Put it in a bottle and it's ready to use on you!
