You always know your in for a good show when everyone in the band looks like they wanna kill everybody.
What a superb band.
Forgot to add... His unique strumming style combines lead and rhythm.... That is awesome.
Wilko Johnson last seen beheading Ned Stark in Game of Thrones. So the axeman stays true to his trade. From wielding his axe to wielding an axe.
Johnson got his style of guitar playing from watching Johnny Kidd and The Pirates guitarist, Mick Green. Green combined rhythm playing with playing a lead line simultaneously.
Love love love Dr Feelgood, Wilko brilliant ⭐
The lead singer had the superb name of Lee Brilleaux, who always sang with great intensity but sadly died at only 42.
Wilko was awesome
Classic ITV music show from the mid 1970's. It went out tea-times and featured many of the acts of the day performing live in the studio. There were some varied hosts such as Dave Cash & Dave Eager.
Some of the artists to appear were - Mud, Showaddywaddy, The Glitter Band, Splinter, Dr Feelgood, The Sweet and many more.
I saw them twice in their heyday. Lee & Wilko we’re amazing live. So much energy. Thanks for the reaction.
Our pleasure!
Like Hendrix he used his thumb over the top of the fretboard on the route note which gave a droning sound under the chords and notes.
Brilliant ! 😊
Dr Feelgood were the first band I ever saw in 1977 however, sadly Wilko had already left by then. Feelgood and Eddie and the Hot Rods paved the way, in the UK at least, for Punk (they were the gateway drug). Canvey Island's finest, and Wilko was a unique talent. He joined Ian Dury and the Blockheads sometime later, but I don't think he ever recovered from the shock of being fired by the band, and neither did we.
Great input. Thanks!
Fabulous, love this. Dr Feelgood in the late '70s flew in the face of all the new wave/ post-punk scene back then, but seemed to capture a lot of the same addictive, aggressive energy. I was at art college back then and we listened to this alongside raw punk (The Damned, Clash, Pistols etc) as well as Ian Drury & the Blockheads and even Motorhead - it all fed off the same excitable energy.
RIP WILKO JOHNSON 21st November 2022 (75)🎸🎸🤘🎶🎶😭, will be greatly missed
Wow! Loved it! I think they were referred to as Pub Rockers, along with the Stranglers. I know Roger Daltrey has high respect for Wilco Johnson, you can see why. Basic gritty rock and roll, kinda punk before UK Punk. Great!
Wilko was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer and was told it was inoperable, and he had a year to live. The refused treatment and went out on the road to get as much in as he could. After over 1 year his surgeon said he should go to Addenbrookes Hospital to find out why he wasn't dead. They discovered it wasn't the cancer they originally diagnosed and that they could operate. He underwent an 11 hour operation and removed a 3 Kg tumour. Sadly Wilko died recently. He was an amazing guitarist, spoke Latin and Ancient Icelandic, accomplished artist, and actor.
Just seen the news that Wilko has passed away. Sad, sad news - RIP a genuine guitar hero and wonderful bloke.
Wow! I just started to get into his music through this channel. Sad.
Dr Feelgood were loved in Oz. They easily passed the pub test ie Aussie crowds were very hard taskmasters, if they raged while the band played, loyal for life, if they didn't, rarely given a second chance. Every Feelgood gig we went to in Queensland, especially at Cloudland Ballroom (fantastic venue on a hill with a sprung floor), was fantastic. Wilko had left well before their first tour here in 1979, so it was Gypie Mayo. They were one of the first bands where all band members looked like they were having a ball, especially Sparko Sparks the bass player. He was bouncing all over the stage. We'd follow them throughout SE Qld to go to their gigs, they were always great live. Down to the Doctors.
Hi Greg.
Awesome reaction. You should check out the album Wilko did with Roger Daltrey. It's definitely more Feelgood than Who. The video for Going Back Home would be a great place to start with lots of flash backs to their younger days.
Apparently Wilko and Daltrey had been talking for years about doing a record together. When Wilko got diagnosed with cancer he told Daltrey, we better do it now. It did really well so they toured the album a did interviews for several months. A year later when they were still going and he didn't die a specialist doctor got a hold of him and asked him to come see him. Turns out the cancer was on the outside of the pancreas. He had it removed and is still alive. He could have died from the surgery but fortunately made it through. I'm a big Feelgood fan but an even bigger fan of Wilko Johnson.
Take care
Glenn
Thanks, Glenn!
Thank You for THIS! 👍... Even now 2022 I like this song and this band very much. (first time I heard them 1985-86) Greetings from Finland! 🙂(by Nightwish fan since 1998)
You're welcome! I've been toying with doing a Nightwish song. Which one do you recommend as my first? I know very little about the band.
@@intothemusic908 Very tough question. I like more or less 99% what they have done. Of cource my first idea was to recommend first only some their old songs with their first singer (Tarja Turunen, one of the 3 founders of Nightwish1996 ) But might be that NW with their current singer (Floor Jansen 2012-) will be easier way... So I will give you few recomentations.
First with Tarja❤️ (1996-2005)

MEADOWSMOF HEAVEAN 2007 studio version (ua-cam.com/video/vxsjv6LtRz0/v-deo.html&ab_channel=GondaHuisman)
Those years means when they did live, not when song have been released... And Almost every cases NW is better LIVE.... They have been and still are LIVE BAND. You will see and hear that if you will jump NW "rapid hole" more than one song. Hope this will help you and if you do not like their music... I just say thank you that you ask and Thank you that you tried it. 🙂
One of the greatest bands ever.
I used to see them every Saturday night in the Kensington in Russell Gdns (near Olympia) in the early 70s.... Happy days....😊👍
My favourite band of all time
Don't know if this will get read , but Wilko's genuine farewell was seen by a Swiss (?) doctor who wasn't sure about the prognosis . He followed it up , and did an operation that means Wilko's still with us today .I saw a documentary which said Jerry Harrison lived in England for about 6 months in 1975 and went back to NY in the fall with the first Feelgood album , at a loft party with everyone from the NY scene they handed the album sleeve around loving the B&W photo on the cover and everyone .there i.e. several Ramones ,Talking Heads , Television , Blondie , all loving the record and years later saying if Dr Feelgood had played in NY at that time they would ruled the roost . The NY-London punk dynamic was't as one way as it first appears .
Read! And found informative/interesting. Thanks!
I think my favourite comment about Wilko was that he must have learned to play in a narrow hallway 😋
Love, love, love Dr Feelgood. 👌💕
Johnson and Brilleaux were a match made in heaven.
Excellent. You should react to Dr Feelgood Live from Southend Kurssal. Pure high voltage rock n roll/R &B - never saw a more exciting live band and I’ve seen a few. They were the band that linked rock n roll to punk and influenced so many of the punk bands which followed.
Great reaction guys, thanks and a great performance by the band. Wilko would travel as far as his lead and the stage would allow him to! His cancer was diagnosed inoperable and terminal but as it was put in an article, after two years of not dying, a fan who was a doctor himself referred him to an oncologist in Cambridge. The cancer was then operated on, although it was 85% on Wilko dying on the table. They removed a tumor “the size of a baby” and a lot of his pancreas, spleen, stomach and intestines.
I love Wilko, he’s one of my favourite guitarists. Really underrated and such a great performer with that strut. Glad to see him beating the big c too, hope he’s around for a long time.also look like the kind of band that if you didn’t pay them after the gig would beat the bejesus out of you.
So true!!
One of the best live bands ever!
Wilko
That guitar is the best. Talk about being able to walk and chew gum. He has so much energy and skill
Its not energy, its speed , there weapon of choice.
Been playin my fiddle along to Hunting Shooting Fishing.
He had a red scratch board to deal with his bleeding fingers. The story of how a fan who comes to his gigs to take photos and has a day job as a cancer doctor (by the name of Charlie Chan) second guessed his diagnosis, refered him to his friend and saved our Wilko to rock on is a movie that needs to be made, who would play Wilks I can not imagine. RIP Wilko, my home town hero... as for Lee looking a bit bothered, you guys never did a lot of speed in your youths, I guess ;) ua-cam.com/video/zLLPsGoBtF8/v-deo.html
Reference the potential bleeding fingers, Wilko had at least one guitar with a red fingerboard to hide that. The guy is a guitar god. :)
Trivia alert; my old band , The Guv 'nors, supported the Feelgoods in November 1989, at St. George's Hall, Exeter. A memorable night for many reasons I prefer not to go into...
"they looked like four guys that just done a bank job, then went and played a gig" .... Oil City Confidential, a great documentary about the band: here is the trailer ua-cam.com/video/30OHddTegZY/v-deo.html
Thanks for sharing that link!
thanks so much for that link. Passing that on to my dad, a huge Wilko fan.
reason singer is looking like hes gonna explode is cos hes off his chops on top notch 1970s base speed 🤣🤣
Excellent Reaction. Wilco's and Pete Townshend's biggest influence on their guitar styles was Mick Green who was the lead/rhythm guitarist in Johhny Kidd and the Pirates - check out Shakin all over which the Who subsequently covered. For superior videos of Dr Feelgood at this time (first album) check out the old grey whistle test videos of She Does it Right and Roxette. Wilco's jerky weird movement is utterly mesmerising.
Another great track and I enjoyed the autopsy chat afterwards, I've said it before John's voice reminds me of Whispering Bob Harris with a bit of John Peel thrown in for good measure and he's a virtual neighbour up here in the flatlands, so great to see him back. I've never heard of the show they are performing on, it's probably a regional channel but as you say the audience looks completely out of place, my thinking is that they were there to see the Bay City Rollers or David Cassidy and they were an unintentional audience for Dr Feelgood. I can remember watching some sort of magazine show about 10 years ago, possibly BBC The One Show, where Wilko and Roger Daltrey were on and Wilko was talking about his Brain Cancer and his farewell tour, I think with Roger and they ended up making an album. I'm sure the host asked how long the tour was going to be and he said 'as long as he feels he is able to. It was emotional seeing Roger with him. And then a few years later, I heard he was in remission and the result was dramatic, I think if memory serves, there was a doctor with him who said the odds of beating the cancer that Wilko had were the sort of odds you wouldn't bet on. Good on Wilko, he comes across as a real decent guy too.
Thanks Jay, I'll take that all day long. John Peel is a hero of mine, and to all music lovers I guess. And Whispering Bob is a British institution!
Wilko got his technique from watching Mick Green from Johnny Kidd and the Pirates. His ability to play lead and rhythm guitar simultaneously influenced him.
Lee Brilleaux; best description I read said that he looks like the kid who used to steal your dinner money.
This is an awesome band, really influenced The Jam and Clash and some of the punks who emerged a couple of years later. Do their live Roxette from Old Grey Whistle Test
Thanks for the suggestion. Will do! - Greg
@@intothemusic908 this is 15 mins of them at their peak in 75, complete with Lee wearing the legendary white suit covered in sweat and grime. Absolutely brilliant ua-cam.com/video/GzF0AETdRF8/v-deo.html
wilco johnson rocks.
He certainly does!
lee brilleaux frontman/singer
Song composed by wilko, like all thier songs. First there was the stones then there was feelgood. Who was everyone inspired by punk rock, the damned, clash, sex pistols, feelgood started it off. The big figure(drummer) like all of them is simple minimalist and keep it simple, don't try and impress, ramones, wilko was it. (mostly on speed)
l loved Dr Feelgood - my only gripe was Lee Brilleaux singing in a foreign accent.
They was all speeding , that's why they are like that .
How is it that I'm just now stumbling upon this reaction. First off, shouldn't the Brit be giving this song to the Yank, lol. Not many of us on the west side of the pond that know Dr. Feelgood, but those who get them, love them. I thought, at times, that Lee was going to crush that mic in his hand. Also, the two guitarists from the (English) Beat, and later, Fine Young Cannibals saw Wilko no doubt, and that may be around the time that I first heard Dr. Feelgood's music. So, so damn good.
I think Dr Feelgood sound very similar to very early Rolling Stones exemplified by their first single "Come On" from 1963 during their pure British R&B phase. Of course, they had separate rhythm and lead guitars:

look am an old rocker but just class
David cameron and his pal are dancing
Johnson plus amphetamine equals excellence.
Same time minimalistic and stunning talent... keep it simple.
