Dr Feelgood at The Kuusrock Festival, Oulu, Finland - She Does It Right, Roxette and interview. Extended footage of the extracts seen in the Oil City Confidential movie.
I saw Dr.Feelgood first time in Helsinki, Finland 1975 in an outdoors concert in the park called Kaivopuisto and that was something mind blowing to see Wilko's guitar playing. Last time I've seen Wilko playing was 29th of january 2020 here in Helsinki at Tavastia club was great gig.
Saw them at Birmingham Odeon, about 1974, their support was "Squeeze", with Jools Holland on keys, the crowd were throwing cola bottles at Squeeze to get off ! Feelgood were amazing, as always, best British R&B Band ever.
Saw them at Reading in 1974. They just rocked the place. If I remember right, Hawkwind were on afterwards but everyone had rocked their tits of to the Feelgoods and couldn't raise much energy for the space band. Great times.
I started reading the Finnish rock magazine Soundi those days. My first festival was Kuusrock 1977. We hitch-hiked from 500 km away. We were 14 years old then. Another Canvey Island band that year, Eddie and the Hot Rods.
I was a bit too young at ten to see Dr Feelgood early seventies , but I did see Wilko Johnson in Portsmouth in 1984, what a fantastic guitarist he is !
Thanks for this gem. There is not really a way to describe one of their gigs. I saw them many times. To this day, they were the best live band I have ever seen. Unique. My brother lives on Canvey Island and the entire place will never forget them.
Great stuff. As for the press interview, it's always horrible when bands are asked to explain their music. The interviewer should just witness them live and describe it as loud, sweaty rock'n'roll. Nuff said.
The press of that time were probably so used to prog rock groups who had convoluted lofty ideas & whole concepts behind their look and sound and every album having a story that made Tommy sound like a storybook and at the time they weren’t ready for a band who didn’t play complicated music as hard as they could with just the clothes on their back.
70-luvun toimittajat olivat aina kysymässä tuota samaa. Mitä te oikein haluatte sanoa tällä musiikillanne? Onko teillä jokin sanoma? Mitä nuo oudot vaatteet teidän päällänne oikein viestittävät? Tämä rokkimusiikki oli ilmeisesti vielä niin uutta ja outoa, että piti ihan suomalaisiltakin bändeiltä Hurriganesista Dave Lindholmiin kysyä tuota hämmentävää asiaa. Mitä te siellä lavalla oikein yritätte sanoa, ja mikä syvällinen viesti siellä biiseissä oikein kytee? Olisiko vaikkapa rock´n´roll?
I saw Doctor Feelgood live in 1983 when I was a student at the University of Leicester. Absolutely brilliant live - and what a performance from all the band on this clip. Real, raw, earthy British Rhythm 'n' Blues and much better than many 'Punk' bands who followed them later in the 1970s. A much underrated British band. Probably had much of the 'fizzy' stuff before this particular performance !
That rhythm guitarist is Wilko Johnston, and he's also playing lead without a pick. That's why YOU don't see the lead guitarist. He's 72 now. The lead singer and harmonica died in 1994, Lee Brilleaux.
and the reason hes walking backwards is the spiral guitar jack pulling him back when he walks forward notice how sparky on the bass is doing the same there on springs mate
The Finns always understood and appreciated great rock. God bless the Finns!!!!
Dr.Feelgood`s line up here was perfect. Still does it right, at least for me.
Lee Brilleaux was a brilliant madman!
THE BIG FIGURE is the kinda drummer you want to have to rely on. Class.
absolutely
So true
Definitely. Is that Mac Poole?

Dr.Feelgood tässä elämänsä vedossa ! Legendaarinen keikka legendaariselta bändiltä. Bändi oli parhaimmillaan juuri 1974-76. 😎

best British rnb bands ever must be the Animals, Graham Bond's Organisation ao.
Original in everyway
Pure rockn roll.
Scary and wonderful all at once. Wilko is a feckin' metronome. What a band!
Me saco el sombrero ante tan legendaria banda...
Lee is fucking possessed. And I mean that in a good way
It's called speed

imagine these greats playing at woodstock would have blown them all away
This is rare stuff, thank you
RIP Wilko 😌
Replaceable cry baby .

Never got the chance to see them live in their heydays. I was a little too young. But they were part of the seed for punkrock. Real fabulous Band

Haha, Wilco's done so much speed he STILL hasn't slept. Respektz!
WILCO?????
I was there at age 17. Act was hard Wilko walk about six mail.
strak!
英国は飯は不味いが、音楽は最高!
Wilko's accent reminds me of how Mick Jagger talks. Guess that's a basic SE England thing.
Jep! :D
A one off band no led zepplin cheating here
Playing: rhythm and blues
Speaking: bo'ol o' wo'uh
wanted to go but my parents wouldn't let me as i was 1y 4m old.
Proto Gang of Four
The camera work doesn't justify the sheer class of the Feelgoods. Was it done on a 1970s mobile phone?
Up! 😍 Markku&Huns :D
I got just one word to say: ROXETTE!
Man, you know Lee's coke dealer was a happy man :-)
Irre gut
What rotten camera work.
We didn't see the lead guitarist once, just the rhythm bloke walking backwards and forwards.
That rhythm guitarist is Wilko Johnston, and he's also playing lead without a pick. That's why YOU don't see the lead guitarist. He's 72 now. The lead singer and harmonica died in 1994, Lee Brilleaux.
@@Lumby1 thank you i didnt wanna post this comment haha
and the reason hes walking backwards is the spiral guitar jack pulling him back when he walks forward notice how sparky on the bass is doing the same there on springs mate
@@irishwanderer4206 Amazing group, I wish I had been able to see them live, that would have been a rave.
I think Chrisst was being sarcastic, and knows that the rhythm and lead were the same
