DR FEELGOOD LIVE 1975 TV SHOW - FULL CONCERT - FEAT. WILKO JOHNSON

[@チェスナットエリー]

ウィルコ先生、ギターを、弾く、楽しさを、教えてれて、thankyou🎸🌹

[@johnmorrissey5105]

I'm 59 and I've heard literally hundred of bands, from blues to rap to rock, and even a little classical. I've never heard of these guys until a week ago. I watched them on youtube and immediately bought every one of their cds on amazon. They just blew me away!! Wilko Johnson has now become one of my favorite guitarists of all time....

[@carl1964carl]

Hey John, I’m in my late 50s too. I got this band via Wilco, and the amp he is using, a H & H British transistor amp. Which I have. Not much info online about them. Mark Bolan of T Rex , and Bauhous used them.

[@steverawlinson9635]

Always new of this band but never listened wish I did now my own fault fucking class

[@michealmoats3589]

Bingo! Welcome to the club. Wilko only one no one like him. Probly too painful.

[@bobjary9382]

@@carl1964carl Very popular amps back in the day, we ran them in clubs in the 70s/80s several of my mates had them as pa amps and heads for little stacks. Never had one go down despite some pretty awful neglect. Cool green light too.

[@carl1964carl]

@@bobjary9382 gee thanks for that info Bob, still got one here in Melbourne, heavy thing

[@reymondgopog426]

No ear monitor, no on screen lyrics... They rock the stage like they don't care. This is pure rock n roll. Superb performance. Wilko Johnson is my new guitar hero in my list.

[@JoeyArmstrong2800]

Blood, Sweat and Beers

[@bruggmanbrandon5272]

All the Tv shows preformance. Top of the pops etc....were played over a backing track without vocals. Reason was clarity for the broadcast. so no this was not all live.

[@treadgingerly]

@@bruggmanbrandon5272 This is live.

[@captainniven]

@@bruggmanbrandon5272 this is live - its all miked up and Wilko is hitting the odd bum note / sharpening strings too. Those guys couldn't perform to playback convincingly - take a look at any Top of the Pops recording to see that.

[@geoffreycarson2311]

BRILLIANT R&B Pub Rock !!!!Band AND ENGLISH to the CORE!!! in Their OWN Special Way R.I.P.Lee And Wilko 😔g

[@johnharland4683]

Have to agree with all the plaudits for Wilko and Brilleaux, but let's also give it up for the drummer and bassist who are tight AF.

[@michaelnaunton6081]

That was The Big Figure and Sparko? I may be misremembering, I last saw them 45 years ago. Absolutely great band.

[@stephenwilliams1824]

Sad to hear of the loss of Wilco Johnson. Loved the 70’s.

[@smudgersmith2650]

The band that changed music in the 70's absolutely brilliant. RIP the legend Wilko Johnson

[@Jimmy-n7p2b]

Rip. Lee and wilko. Great musicans

[@andicampbell8621]

Another legend departs this world. RIP Wilko.

[@Tranmere59]

He did Portsmouth Poly SU one time in early 80s,. I had the new *German* girlfriend with me, Marlene. We were propping up the bar when he came on & I said "Cmon Marl we've got to get to the front" "Why? We can hear ok from here". "No, the front. You need to see his eyes." 2 songs later she's screaming down my ear [put on your best German accent] "Dave I know you like him but he looks like he comes from an asylum!" She's been a Wilko fan ever since :o)

[@catwoman281]

The band is brilliant ! I discovered them in London in 1974. A british rock crîtic took me at the Dingwalls Camden, thanks to him. I saw Dr Feelgod months later, electric gigs forever...

[@kennethridout7471]

Wow what a blast

[@Richieforren]

I was so fortunate to have seen Dr.Feelgood twice at college shows in upstate NY. Wilco would jump on the tables and play, the combination of him and Lee was mesmerizing. Met Lee after one of the shows, super nice guy. Makes being old worth t.

[@kennethridout7471]

With out a doubt 😅

[@s.k.393]

RIP Wilko. Fabulous player.

[@glennforsyth7581]

Wilko is one of the greatest rock n' roll guitarists of all time...

[@gsixties]

Dr. Feelgood always makes me feel allright. R.I.P. Lee Brilleaux

[@nickgardner9057]

Saw them in a little sweaty underground taven in Sydney Australia in the late 1970s. Blew me away. Fantastic band. The whole place was rocking!

[@TheLee105]

Every young band should watch this........Proper musicians playing proper music......No frills just great musicianship......

[@Fuzzbrain61]

RIP Wilko. A true original - gave us some brilliant rock n roll moments. What. a stage act.

[@walrtbstudios5430]

I saw these guys live in ‘75, and they remain the best live act I ever saw. Wilko (and Lee)- RiP.

[@vacationhouserecordings763]

FANTASTIC BAND!

[@guitarmarwin]

I was 8 years old when I saw Dr Feelgood on the old grey whistle test and iv'e never looked back Wilko is out of this world!!

[@CarlosHenriqueXavierEndo]

RIP Wilko Johnson! We will miss you.

[@Kickersbuss]

RIP in guitar heaven, You will stay in our hearts forever. 💗😢🙏🎸🕊

[@jensenbell]

Wilko should be more widely known. Rest in peace, Telecaster Master

[@thekitowl]

Couldn’t agree more. I saw him in a pub in new cross & he was mesmerising.

[@khkartc]

Amazing how good simple, uptempo 12-bar blues can sound!

[@doublechinmask3744]

such a tight and unique rhythm and insane energy.Crazy good,I just discovered them few months ago.

[@davidbowman6740]

Lee Brilleaux’s manic vocals and Wilko’s guitar work were a match made in heaven. All those who describe the Ramones as the first punk band clearly never saw Dr Feelgood hammering it out in a sweaty pub!

[@Pstephen]

Punk started on tea-time TV (we had something similar on YTV - we might even have had this as well).

[@333daveh5]

Rock n Roll, yes, RnB, yes……but punk? WTF are you talking about?

[@davidbowman6740]

@@333daveh5 you clearly don’t know your music history, pal. Joe Strummer of The Clash quoted the Feelgoods as a key influence on punk….but, hey, what would he know? 😎

[@333daveh5]

@@davidbowman6740 they may well have influenced many bands of that era - some of whom were to become early founders of the punk movement - but that’s not what you said. You implied that the Feelgoods were the first punk band. I don’t need to be a music historian to know the difference between RnB and punk - I’m old enough to have lived through that era and whilst I thought Dr Feelgood were a breath of fresh air to the music scene in the early/mid 70s, punk (in my opinion) destroyed it (in much the same way as rap has done more recently).

[@davidbowman6740]

@@333daveh5 Hmmm….you need to read between the lines a bit more intuitively, I think. What I was implying was that the Feelgoods brought a punk sensibility which definitely influenced many young London musicians at the time. These were as diverse as Joe Strummer, Billy Bragg and Ian Drury, who all acknowledged the influence of the Feelgoods on the punk scene. The fact that you don’t like punk is irrelevant.

[@genki2genki]

Everytime I heard & see Wilko play the influence on Paul Weller is clear. Which Weller has gratefully acknowledged. What a star.

[@hubertstaiger9131]

What a powerfull music!

[@crimsonwolf9099]

This Wilko Johnson guy on guitar created his own Chuck Berry meets Townshend on speed performance style. He was amazing.

[@stubmandrel]

He still is, even if he doesn't bounce around quite as much.

[@rythymsection7335]

That is one wicked riff! My legs are tired from just looking at him...

[@doctorskull8197]

WilKo.

Im watching that one off Southend Pier you shoulnt get more Feelgood unless you can afford the pill.

Wilko is absolutely mesmerising!

[@johanbergman3166]

One of the absolutely best bands ever!

Never heard of him until today, and I'm 70 years old. Love that guitar style. As iconic as Chuck Berry.

Never heard of Wilko or The Feelgoods??? Where were you?

AKA Grope and Wanker. On e of many pubs and gigs by them in the 70s. Including New years eve in HAMMERSMITH.

😂no Wilko, no Gang of Four or U2.😅

I remember this on Anglia TV on a Saturday lunchtime. It blew me away. Went out bought all their albums. Classic

[@DinseeNuffin]

Wilko!!! What a legend, two guitarists for the price of one, Lead and Rythmn combined, how did he do that????

[@fionabirkmire2874]

How comforting that they started as they finished and never compromised on their style - BLINDING! 👌🏻👏🏻

[@keijotoivonen3988]

Goooooooooöd!

[@johnmorrissey5105]

A few years ago, I posted a comment on my discovery of Wilko and Dr. Feelgood, albeit a little later on in my life. The style of Wilko's playing made me an instant fan, and I have tried to keep up with him and his music ever since. " She Does It Right" is a staple on my playlist. So, when I found out today that he had died, I just want to say how lucky I am to have found his music. I don't think anyone can ever replicate his intense style. I am thankful for the opportunity to have experienced such a talented musician. RIP Wilko.

[@Tucko1]

I was VERY late to the party. So glad to have finally discovered this. Reminds me a bit of Eddie and the Hotrods.

[@geoffreycarson2311]

AND Lee !!!WHAT A GEEZER R&B Man g

[@Philo68]

Wilko is a guitar playing genius who moves like a robot at times! Great presence and a great set by the band. Seen Wilko many times and it's the best gig I've been to...

[@geraldhills41]

this influenced me as a young guitarist, years of playing and teaching, now i'm retired, god i wish i could go back.

[@jimhealeyband]

41years ago i watched this...still brilliant...life changing event...thank you boys!

[@fryksdahlstravel8983]

Amazing! How Wilco really plays rhythm guitar with all the strumming and then the licks and riffs in-between. Like one person said he's worth TWO guitarists, no need for more! Always have liked the sound of one great guitarist carrying the song single-handedly - note the Feelgoods or Rush or Zeppelin or Cream. Always thought the Stones or Aerosmith could have dumped one guitarist. Just my feeling right now when listening to Dr Feelgood.

[@hdrake1000]

Very cool and rocking band!!!

[@johnbillyard1837]

Simply brilliant…..say no more…….thanks for uploading this video!

[@jonasnilsson5470]

R.I.P. Wilko. You were one of a kind.

[@MultiStrickland]

Wilko! All done without a pick.... The legend lives on.....

[@FYMASMD]

Multi Strickland ever heard of Jeff Beck? Come on. This guy is a unique primitive guitarist like Luther Perkins. I sense pharmaceutical influence.

[@ROOKTABULA]

And Knopfler: A godhead on the guitar.

[@public.public]

Come on... this is a dance band and the guitar playing reflects that. Mods would ride a long way to see Doctor Feelgood. Beck doesn't do this kind of thing.

[@toddb9311]

Agreed. An amazing Tele sound. Ronnie Woods How Can It Be with the Birds comes to mind.

[@toddb9311]

Yes, we've heard of Jeff Beck. This is rock and roll! When was the last time anybody danced to Beck?

[@TheDocRitchie]

wiko's guitar style never gets dull. a true telecaster great.

[@TwelveMonkeys-ck5it]

RIP Wilko. Top man will be sorely missed. Never seen a man hoover up so much speed in all my life! How he lived to beyond 70 is beyond me.

[@alecschafer1312]

Im 22 and have been so interestied in 70s and 80s good ole American music i wish i lived in those times

Except this band are British. :)

[@Datanditto]

@@captainnivenBut there music is American based. Boom Boom, Route 66, etc

[@captainniven]

​@@Datanditto except it isn't. They were as English as they come. The Feelgoods owed as much to the old Mod scene and bands like The Pirates, as they do to any americana. That and amphetamines. :)

[@Datanditto]

@@captainniven More than half of their songs were written by American songwriters, their sound is Chuck Berry, Little Richard and rocket fuel.

[@colmmeaney8707]

I'd heard "Milk and Alcohol " in my teens and on a whim a couple of years later bought the "Let it roll" album. It never left my record turntable for the next 6 months - Awesome band, just wish I'd seen them live in their heyday!

It vibrates, beats with force and the heart hits to the rhythm of a fantastic rock'n'roll, that never you want that it stops... Forever thank you !!!!

[@brianhaining7195]

I 1st came across Dr Feelgood watching this TV performance in the mid 70's and it blew me away. Different from anyone else. I've been a gan ever since and was lucky enough to see the original line up before the split.

[@VoodooHighway]

Rest in peace, Wilko.

[@melvinthirkell7720]

Fantastic posting. Fantastic memories. Amazing to think those twenty year old dancing girls will have gone from appreciating true RnB to now probably getting their kicks down the bingo hall. Weirdly I might have met some of them as I am of their age group and come from the same area. What a great band though.

Terrific stuff, thanks for sharing. Dr Feelgood were one of the best live bands I ever saw - and Wilko Johnson's Solid Senders (early 80s) weren't too shoddy either.

100% excellent. Wilko is unique.

Dr Feelgood never got the recognition they deserve so much. If ever there was a band that should be in the Rock n Roll hall of fame, this is it. Tight, loud and raw, all a great rock band should be.

[@veronicagrey9782]

I saw Dr Feelgood at the Empire Ballroom, Leicester Sq when I was about 18. They were excellent. About 10 years later I saw Wilko Johnson at Dingwall's. Another great night. Such a shame Wilko has died. 75 is no age these days!
