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

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
"Your android replica is playing up again..." Those were the days when android had nothing to do with phones and we didn't even know about 'tablets'.
