Sad to hear that Wilko Johnson died to day at 75. As a fellow Estuary dweller in my youth it was great to hear a local band do well. Dr Feelgood were a breath of fresh air in amongst the stodge of prog in the mid-70s and influenced the punk movement that followed. Top man, he'll be missed

Very sad. Dr.Feelgood were an ace R & B band (when R & B didn't mean the modern crap peddled as such). Seeing Wilko on the OGWT pacing out 'Roxette' will stay with me for a very long time.

"Down by the Jetty" should be rated as one the best albums of the era.
