Damn, that's so sad. Wilko is one of the good guys, Canvey Island's finest. Maybe when he arrives 'up there' he'll be able to hook up with Lee Brilleaux again and form another great band. Makes this song poignantly ironic I guess:

Dr Feelgood - Down At The Doctor's

What I always loved about that track is the "eight bars of piano" that you never actually heard.

Here's a South Bank Show piece on the band:

DR. FEELGOOD The South Bank Show 1981

That was er, entertaining. And here I thought by misreading it that it was another one from these guys:

Thanks for all of those links, what a journey of discovery!

I'd never heard of Billy Sheehan so that was a wow moment.

p.s. re: Kanye West. I've seen him interviewed and it was like he's been beaten severely with the dumb-stick. So why-o-why is he sampling a song that's from before he was even born. It could be a super-witty ironic statement, but from him, I doubt it...

Whenever I think of Motorhead, I always think of Hawkwind too. This is one of my favourites:

Hawkwind - Spirit Of The Age
