My main interest is the work of Mac Rebennack aka Dr John. Especially looking for info on records that feature him as a session musician or as producer. Also pretty sure I'm still missing a few records of his compositions recorded by others.
Any bits of info very much appreciated !

Hello -

The Ric and Ron catalogue is filled with little known Rebennack compositions and session work... although most of those 45s weren't 'coded', I trust you've seen our Ric and Ron page:

I recently found out that a song that's been a favorite of mine for years was co-written by Mac:

...and of course, the Cosimo Code 'theme song' is 'Sahara':

Thanks!!

Thanks for the reply. The Tommy Ridgley side I already have. Indeed, LOTS of Rebennack in the Ric & Ron stable. Unfortunately only the ones he (co-)wrote are obvious. But he's been doing sessions since 1956 and I'd love to have some more details on those...
