I graduated high school in 1971 and absolutely HATED the music that was being played on US radio stations. "Classic rock," yeah right! Wotta misnomer. That forced me to search for music I liked and thankfully I kept finding bands and artists I loved from Big Star to the Flamin' Groovies to Brinsley Schwarz, Ducks Deluxe, Daddy Cool, Blue Ash, Starry Eyed & Laughing and then in 1975, DR. FEELGOOD! I guess there were probably 10 other Americans besides myself who bought an import copy of "Down By The Jetty" which just blew my socks off, and then later in the year, the amazing 'Malpractice" which stayed on my turntable until "Sneakin' Suspicion" came out and replaced it. Wilko was perhaps the most mesmerizing guitar player who ever lived and I'll take him over two dozen Claptons and Pages and all those wankers any day of the week! It was amazing to watch the end of the last episode of the first season of "Game of Thrones" and see the credits listing WILKO JOHNSON! I thought, "Nah, it can't be!" But it was and probably like everyone else who's posted here, I kept abreast of his medical condition and am eternally grateful for the years he still had left in which he had a chance to provide some tutorials and amazing tales from his amazing life. These guys had 3 great albums (and a live one too) in them which is more than you can say about dozens of bands in the so-called R&R HOF. Will Dr. Feelgood ever get in? Right after Graham Parker & the Rumour, Jackie DeShannon, the Honeycombs, and Artful Dodger. I never bothered listening to Dr. Feelgood after Wilko left (I mean, what was the point?), but 48 years later those four albums are still doing heavy duty rotation on my new and improved turntable!

The audience was/were completely wasted, no doubt about it. Outscoring every other band when it comes to selling beer & other liquids. This group remains to be the best and most entertaining band of this genre. What a wonderful R&B band, indeed. R.I.P. for Brillo and Wilko.

Just as Van Gogh failed to paint in the style of the Impressionists and was almost forced to develop out of that influence an expressive style of his own, Wilco Johnson could not exactly copy the guitar style of one of the most important guitarists in the UK, Mick Green (of “Johnny Kidd and the Pirates”), so that he developed out of that influence his own highly individual style (with influences as well from the percussive guitar style of Bo Diddley and possibly the "claw hammer" technique on a banjo). “Down by the Jetty” remains one of my all time favourite albums: black and white sleeve and MONO: what more does brillant music need …
